147 •K e y i n g A display effect that switches between two display sources depending on the pixel values in one of the sources. Keying is used to make portions of the overlay frame buffer surface transparent so that corres ponding areas of the underlay frame buffer surface can show through it.
148 Appendix C: Glossary •N e t w o r k b i n d i n g s The series of associations that enable communication among the network ser vices, protocols, and adapters in your computer . In this case,’binding’ r efers to the conversion or association of symbolic addresses in the operating system to storage-related addresses.
149 •P O S T P ow er-on self test. This test is performe d by the BIOS, as soon as the computer is turned on. POST gathers informatio n about what your unit contains, and ensures that everything is working properly .
150 Appendix C: Glossary • Real-time processing The processing of an image as quic kly as the next image is grabbed. Also known as live processing . • Reference lev els The zero and full-scale levels of an analog-to-digital converter .
151 • T CP/IP T ransmission Control Pr otocol/ Internet P rotocol. The basic communication protocol (or language) of the Internet th at has become the global standar d for network communications since it ensures faithful data transmission.
