English Dictionary: kibibyte by the DICT Development Group
2 results for kibibyte
From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:
kibibyte
n
  1. a unit of information equal to 1024 bytes [syn: kilobyte, kibibyte, K, KB, kB, KiB]
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   kibibyte
  
      The official ISO[?] name for 1024 {bytes}, to
      distinguish it from 1000 bytes which they call a kilobyte.
      "Mebibyte", "Gibibyte", etc, are prefixes for other powers of
      1024.   Although this new naming standard has been widely
      reported in 2003, it seems unlikely to catch on.
