Granularity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Granularity is the extent to which a system is broken down into small parts, either the system itself or its description or observation. It is the "extent to which a larger entity is subdivided. For ...

Due to the reduction in the degrees of freedom and elimination of fine interaction details, the simulation of a coarse-grained (CG) system requires less resources and goes faster than that for the same system in all-atom representation. ...

Coarse-grained textures generally indicate magmas that slowly cooled deep underground. Slow cooling gives crystals enough time to grow to easily seen sizes (i.e., larger than 1 mm).

This gabbro has a lot of coarse, dark pyroxene crystals in it. There is also a lot of plagioclase, but it is tough to spot because it is also quite dark. The shiny cleavage planes in the upper park of this sample are all plagioclase.

Amethyst is a transparent, coarse-grained, purple variety of quartz (SiO2) and has long been a the most important quartz variety used in jewelry. The presence of manganese in quartz produces this characteristic purple color, and additional iron content varies the coloration.

Matthew Nyman, TERC ... Is the rock generally light colored with dark crystals spread throughout? If yes, your sample is probably granite. Granite usually takes on the color of the feldspar crystals in it. ... Is your rock dark colored? If yes, your sample is probably gabbro. Due to the dark color of gabbro,

The range of existing reconfigurable architectures is subdivided in fine- and coarse-grained approaches. Fine-grained devices are optimized to implement glue logic and irregular structures like state machines.
