MIPS Technologies, Inc.          A company which designs, develops, and licenses       {reduced instruction set computer} (RISC) {microprocessors}       and compilers.   MIPS Technologies, Inc. is a wholly-owned       subsidiary of {Silicon Graphics, Inc.} and operates as an       independent unit.   MIPS is the successor to the processor       business of MIPS Computer Systems which was founded in 1984       and merged with Silicon Graphics on 29 June 1992.          MIPS Technologies developed the world's first RISC {VLSI}       microprocessors (1985) (or was it the {ARM}?), the first       commercial 64-bit microprocessor ({MIPS R4000}, 1992),       announced MIPS R4300i - the first 64-bit RISC processor       designed for interactive consumer applications (April 1995).       They announced the MIPS R10000 - the next generation       general-purpose MIPS microprocessor and the most powerful       processor in the world (October 1994).          MIPS' semiconductor company partners participate in the design       and development of MIPS processors and software and then       produce, market, and support the processors.   MIPS itself does       not fabricate or sell products.   MIPS' semiconductor partners       are: {Integrated Device Technology}, {LSI Logic Corporation},       {NEC Corporation}, {NKK Corporation}, {Philips       Semiconductors}, {Siemens AG}, and {Toshiba Corporation}.          MIPS' products include:          R4000 - 100 MHz; 1.35M transistors, primary i/d cache 8KB/8KB,       SPECint92 58.3/ SPECfp92 61.4.          R4300i - 133 MHZ, 1.35M transistors; primary i/d cache,       16KB/8KB, SPECint92 80, SPECfp92 60.          R4400 - 250 MHz, 2.3M transistors, primary i/d cache       16KB/16KB, SPECint92 175.8, SPECfp92 164.4.          R4600 - 133 MHz, 1.9M transistors, primary i/d cache       16KB/16KB, SPECint92 85, SPECfp92 75.          R8000/R8010 - 90 MHz, 2.6M, .83M transistors, primary i/d       cache, 16KB/16KB, SPECint92 132, SPECfp92 396.          R10000 - 200 MHz, 6.7M transistors, primary i/d cache       32KB/32KB, SPECint92 >300, SPECfp92 >600.          MIPS' processor chips were used in the {DEC 3100} series of       {workstation}s.          {Home (http://www.mips.com/)}.          {Usenet} newsgroup: {news:comp.sys.mips}.          (1996-03-01)

MPEG-1 audio layer 1          (MP1) A simple 32-{subband}       {audio compressor} using a {floating point} representation for       subband samples.   Resolution and scale factor are stored for       groups of 12 subsamples.   MP1 is only used for {Philips} DCC       {Digital Compact cassette} with data rates of 384 kbps.          (2001-12-02)

MPEG-1 audio layer 3          (MP3) A {digital audio} {compression       algorithm} that acheives a compression factor of about twelve       while preserving sound quality.   It does this by optimising       the compression according to the range of sound that people       can actually hear.   MP3 is currently (July 1999) the most       powerful algorithm in a series of audio encoding standards       developed under the sponsorship of the {Moving Picture Experts       Group} (MPEG) and formalised by the International Organization       for Standardization (ISO).          MP3 is very different from Layer 2, using an additional {MDCT}       layer to increase frequency resolution.   Its scale factor       groups are more optimised for the human ear, and it uses       nonlinear {sample quantisation} and {Huffman coding}.          MP3 files ({filename extension} ".mp3") can be downloaded from       many {World-Wide Web} sites and can be played using software       available for most {operating systems} (also downloadable),       e.g. Winamp for {PC}, MacAmp for {Macintosh}, and mpeg123 for       {Unix}.          MP3 files are usually downloaded completely before playing but       {streaming} MP3 is also possible.   A program called a "ripper"       can be used to copy a selection from a music {CD} onto your       {hard disk} and another program called an encoder can convert       it to an MP3 file.          (2001-12-04)
