cycle of reincarnation n. See {wheel of reincarnation}.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
cycle of reincarnation A term coined by {Ivan Sutherland} ca. 1970 to refer to a well-known effect whereby function in a computing system family is migrated out to special-purpose {peripheral} hardware for speed, then the peripheral evolves toward more computing power as it does its job, then somebody notices that it is inefficient to support two asymmetrical processors in the architecture and folds the function back into the main {CPU}, at which point the cycle begins again. Several iterations of this cycle have been observed in {graphics-processor} ({blitter}) design, and at least one or two in communications and {floating-point} processors. Also known as "the Wheel of Life", "the Wheel of Samsara" and other variations of the basic Hindu/Buddhist theological idea. [{Jargon File}] (1994-11-16)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
cyclebabble Advertising raw {clock speed}, instead of {bus speed}. {IBM} uses raw clock speed as the speed of the computer. In the {IBM PC} and {IBM PC XT}, the clock is divided by 4 to produce the 4-phase bus clocks. Thus a 4 MHz IBM XT really runs at 0.895 MHz, because that 4 MHz was really 3.58 MHz which gets divided by four. A {Tandy} {Color Computer} ran at exactly the same speed, but clock speed was specified as bus speed, 0.895 MHz, leaving the impression that it was 4 times slower. Actually it ran a little faster with a more efficient {instruction set}. If the actual clock frequency had been specified on a {CoCo 3}, it would have been 14.32 MHz, although the bus speed was still 0.895 MHz. That high speed also generated video, color, and {hidden refresh} timing. 100 MHz computers are running at bus speeds of around 25 MHz. (1997-02-13)
