a surrounding or nearby region; "the plane crashed in the vicinity of Asheville"; "it is a rugged locality"; "he always blames someone else in the immediate neighborhood"; "I will drop in on you the next time I am in this neck of the woods"
The degree to which the computations done by a processor depend only on data values held in memory that is close to that processor (in the sense that it is in memory that is least expensive for the processor to access), or the degree to which computations done on a point in some data structure depend only on values near that point Locality can be measured by the ratio of local to nonlocal data accesses, or by the distribution of distances of, or times taken by, nonlocal accesses
Degree to which computations performed by a processor depend only upon local data Locality is measured in several ways including the ratio of local to nonlocal data accesses
Geographic areas defined by Medicare for determining payment amounts There are now about 89 Medicare localities, some covering entire states, other counties, groups of counties, or metropolitan areas Physician Payment Reform reduced wide variations in payments among localities, sometimes within a few miles of each other, experienced under the Customary, Prevailing & Reasonable (CPR) system
* immediacy, such as that provided by online clearing of digital bearer instruments * dealing with the agents one knows best * dealing in one's area of specialty
(1) immediacy, such as that provided by online clearing of digital bearer instruments (2) dealing with the agents one knows best (3) dealing in one's area of specialty
(n ) The degree to which the computations done by a processor depend only on data values held in memory that is close to that processor, or the degree to which computations done on a point in some data structure depend only on values near that point Locality can be measured by the ratio of local to nonlocal data accesses, or by the distribution of distances of, or times taken by, nonlocal accesses See also halo, stencil
A locality is a small area of a country or city. Following the discovery of the explosives the president cancelled his visit to the locality = area. localities a small area of a country, city etc = area
Enter a name or part of a name of any locality level (from Ocean to specific locality) Currently, this field does not yet support logical operators such as 'not', 'and' and 'or'; entered values are taken as literal strings Spaces are allowed in search criteria, but will be truncated if they are either the first or last character(s) of the search criterion Note: all records in the current database already include 'Fiji' in the locality, so use this field to search for more specific locality levels (e g , 'Viti Levu')
a principle that postulates that programs tend to execute instructions close to the current instruction and use data close to the current value The priciple of locality is the basis for the usage of cache
