Do you know how to read binary codes? Pretty impressive if you do, since they’re a computer’s language. Binary coding is a system of counting that boils down to two digits—one (1) and ...

While binary LDPC codes have shown great performance, nonbinary LDPC codes have empirically shown even better performance, especially for small codeword lengths. A configurable output synchronous FIFO ...

Optimize code using binary notation Code optimization can be more creative than compilers and instruction-level parallelism. Here are specific ways to optimize code using hardware resources with ...

Companies using open-source software must confirm that the binary code is compiled from the provided source without any additions or modifications.

Partly to address this, Prusa have proposed a new .bgcode binary G-code format. You can read the specification of the new (and optional) format here.
