Acubulation is the highly frustrating phenomenon that occurs when a waiter or waitress refills your glass several times, until the entire glass contains so much ice that it is impossible to drink. The word comes from "cube" as in ice cube, and Accumulation, a verb that explains why this happens.
After 15 refills, Tim's class had acubulated so much ice that he gave up trying to drink from it.

Get the Acubulation mug.1. Archaic term for a register. On-line use of it as a synonym for `register' is a fairly reliable indication that the user has been around for quite a while and/or that the architecture under discussion is quite old. The term in full is almost never used of microprocessor registers, for example, though symbolic names for arithmetic registers beginning in `A' derive from historical use of the term `accumulator' (and not, actually, from `arithmetic'). Confusingly, though, an `A' register name prefix may also stand for `address', as for example on the Motorola 680x0 family.
