English - English

Definition of co processor in English English dictionary: addition processor which performs special services (i.e. mathematical calculations) and lightens the work load of the central processor
coprocessor: An additional microprocessor used to supplement the functionality of the central processing unit, performing tasks such as floating-point arithmetic (floating-point unit) or graphics calculations (graphics processing unit)
co-processor: resides on an array that relieves the host CPU from executing processor-intensive operations such as RAID 5 parity calculations and secondary RAID 1 writes
co-processor: A second chip alongside the Central Processing Unit, which can perform specialised calculations to take some of the load off the CPU and therefore speed up the computer The Maths or `Floating Point' Co-Processor is particularly important, though its function tends to be integrated into modern microprocessors
co-processor: (n ) An additional processor attached to a main processor, to accelerate arithmetic, I/O or graphics operations
co-processor: {i} auxiliary processor (Computers)
co-processor: Additional microchip used to assist CPU in complex mathematical operations
co-processor: An additional central logic unit which performs specific tasks while the main unit executes its primary tasks frequently, these chips are added to speed up mathematical tasks or perform I/O functions
coprocessor: A microprocessor typically mounted on an expansion card that can speed computations in such applications as scientific simulations or statistical calculations
coprocessor: A chip designed specifically to handle a particular task, such as math calculations or displaying graphics on-screen A coprocessor is faster at its specialized function than the main processor is, and it relieves the processor of some work A coprocessor can reside on the motherboard or be part of an expansion card, as with an accelerator
coprocessor: Any computer processor which assists the main processor by performing special tasks faster than they can be executed by software running in the main processor A coprocessor often decodes instructions in parallel with the main processor and executes only those intended for it The most common example is a floating-point coprocessor, others are used for graphics and for networking
coprocessor: A chip on the motherboard of a computer designed to relieve the load on the main processor by handling specific functions (such as rigorous mathematical tasks)
coprocessor: A unit working in tandem with the CPU to perform specific types of operations One example is a math coprocessor specializing in calculations that can enhance the overall ability of the computer to process mathematics-intensive information, such as drawings or spreadsheets
coprocessor: A separate circuit inside a computer that adds additional functions to the CPU or handles extra work while the CPU is busy
coprocessor: A dedicated processor chip that is summoned by the CPU to perform specialized types of processing (pg 182)
coprocessor: A separate computer chip designed to do specific tasks and take some of the work off the main processor
coprocessor: {i} auxiliary processor (Computers)
coprocessor: A microprocessor or auxiliary processor optimized for a specific type of operation, such as floating point mathematics, video processing or 3D data processing Relieves load on the CPU
coprocessor: Additional processor used in some personal computers to perform specialized tasks such as extensive arithmetic calculations or processing of graphical displays. The coprocessor is often designed to do such tasks more efficiently than the main processor, resulting in far greater speeds for the computer as a whole
coprocessor: A special-purpose processing unit that assists the CPU in performing certain types of operations
coprocessor: An additional processor chip which increases the computer's speed by handling specialized chores such as math or graphics
coprocessor: A chip that functions like a calculator It does basic calculations like adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying within the computer’s memory
coprocessor: A type of assist processor which interfaces to the memory hierarchy at the level of the cache Coprocessors are special purpose units that work with the main processor to speed up specialized operations such as floating-point arithmetic and graphics processing Coprocessors generally have their own internal state and hardware evaluation mechanism
coprocessor: A separate chip (or nowadays, a portion of the CPU) that performs a lot of the calculations and number crunching for the microprocessor, relieving the CPU of some of its work and thus enhancing the overall speed of the system
