0 a unit of measurement of computer information consisting of 1,024 bytes: --
The formatted capacity of 3½-inch high-density floppies was originally 1440 kibibytes.
The kibibyte is a multiple of the unit byte for quantities of digital information.
Note that on the 80186 and earlier, the first kibibyte of the address space, starting at address 0, is the permanent, immovable location of the interrupt vector table.
The "bi" part of the prefix comes from the word binary, so for example, kibibyte means a kilobinary byte, that is 1024 bytes.
The kibibyte was designed to replace the kilobyte in some computer science contexts, where kilobyte used to mean 1024 bytes.
The binary prefix "kibi" means 1024, therefore 1 kibibyte is 1024 bytes.
traffic volume on a network interface in kibibytes (KiB) and mebibytes (MiB)
The system uses segmented memory, with up to 2 24 segments of up to 64 kibibytes each.
