ENERGY STAR certified heat pumps have higher ratings for seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER), energy efficiency ratio (EER), and heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF) and use about 5% percent less energy than conventional new models.
1 8 bits that contain the Type of Service, also referred to as Quality of Service (QoS), which describes what priority the packet should have, 2  16 bits that contain the length of the packet in bytes, 3  16 bits that contain an identification tag to help reconstruct the packet from several fragments, 4  3 bits.
A sequence of bits can represent not just numbers but other kinds of data, such as the letters and symbols on a keyboard. The sequence of 0s and 1s that make up data are usually counted in groups of 8, and these groups of 8 bits are called bytes. The word byte is short for binary digit eight. To transmit one keystroke on a typical keyboard requires one byte of information (or 8 bits). To transmit a three-letter word requires three bytes of information (or 24 bits). In computer technology, a unit of information made up of bits (often eight bits).
