 Bit array - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bit arrays can be used for the allocation of memory pages, inodes, disk sectors, etc. In such cases, the term bitmap may be used.
Bit arrays and the operations on them are also important for constructing succinct data structures, which use close to the minimum possible space.
Bit arrays are also a useful abstraction for examining streams of compressed data, which often contain elements that occupy portions of bytes or are not byte-aligned.

 Bit Vectors - Guile Reference Manual   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Bit vectors are zero-origin, one-dimensional arrays of booleans.
Bit vectors are are also generalized vectors, See Generalized Vectors, and can thus be used with the array procedures, See Arrays.
Bit vectors are the special case of one dimensional bit arrays.

 Bit Vector, Using Perl Vec
A bit vector is just an array of bits; subsets of bits within the bytes have some meaning.
The use of vector in this context probably came from jump tables: the bits represent a place for code to jump to, and therefor are at least vaguely related to the physics/engineering definition of a vector quantity (maginitude and direction).
Its granularity is a little bit limited: the number of bits you want to examine or set has to be a power of 2, so you can't (for example) conveniently work with three bit fields.

 ACM Lisp Pointers 3, 2-4 (Apr/Jun 1990), 8-22.
Very few computers offer addressing capabilities down to the individual bit, and demand that words be addressed on "word boundaries", so there are the possibilities that incomplete words need to be processed, and that two bits which are to be combined may reside at different bit locations within a word.
In addition, these functions must also be careful not to disturb bits earlier in the word before the first element or later in the last word, because the underlying simple-array may also be accessible to the user, and bits which are not participating in the "bit-xxx" function should not be affected.
A 256-element table is used to reverse the bits within an 8-bit byte, and this table is used twice to reverse the bits in a 16-bit word.

 H. Baker -- Efficient Bit-vector Searching
We must now ignore some of the bits in the process of trying to perform the match--i.e., we may now have some "don't care" items at the beginning and the end of the pattern.
If the "CanStart" table entry is a bit-vector whose "on" bits indicate the leftmost position of a succeeding match; i.e., if bit #'s 0,3, and 4 are all on, then the pattern can start in those bit positions within the index byte.
requires a bit more complexity, because the pattern may be positioned in a byte in such a way that we have "don't care" bits at both ends of the byte.

 Bit::Vector - Efficient bit vector, set of integers and "big int" math library
'', all three bit vector arguments must in principle obey the rule of matching sizes, but the bit vector in which the result of the multiplication is to be stored may be larger than the two bit vector arguments containing the factors for the multiplication.
If the source bit vector is larger than the target, this method will copy as much of the least significant bits of the source vector as will fit into the target vector, thereby discarding any extraneous most significant bits.
If the target bit vector is larger than the source, this method fills up the remaining most significant bits in the target bit vector with either 0's or 1's, depending on the sign (= the most significant bit) of the source bit vector.

 Bit::Vector::String - Generic string import/export for Bit::Vector
Note that since an octal digit is always worth three bits, the length of the resulting string is always a multiple of three bits, regardless of the true length (in bits) of the given bit vector.
Remember also that the least significant bits are always to the right of an octal string, and the most significant bits to the left.
In case of an error, the memory occupied by the new bit vector is released again before the exception is actually thrown.

 Debian -- libbit-vector-perl
Perl and C library for bit vectors and more
Bit::Vector is an efficient C library which allows you to handle bit vectors, sets (of integers), "big integer arithmetic" and boolean matrices, all of arbitrary sizes.
The library is efficient (in terms of algorithmical complexity) and therefore fast (in terms of execution speed) for instance through the widespread use of divide-and-conquer algorithms.

The method will copy as much as will fit or fill up with 0's or 1's (depending on the sign of the source) if necessary.
Version 5.7 19.05.1999 + Improved method "Div_Pos()": It now uses only one instead of the former two (very costly) "shift" operations in its main loop, and it now depends on the (variable) length of the numbers involved rather than the (constant) length of their respective bit vectors, making this method tremendously faster now.
Version 3.1 21.01.1997 + Fixed a bug that caused the initialization routine of the module to fail on 64 bit machines due to a wrong conditional expression (type "int" and "size_t" do not necessarily have the same size!).

One idea to achieve these tests is to associate with each element of the poset a subset of a set S={1,...,k} such that the reachability question coincides with subset inclusion.
These subsets can be represented by bit vectors of size k.
For this reason, these encodings are called bit-vector encodings.
