G LOSSARY Glossary-1 Glossary The terms in this glossary cover the topics discussed in this manual. Alternate naming is included for reference. Abbreviation s AC: alternating current AGP: accelerated .
G LOSSARY Glossary-2 alphanumeric: Keyboard characters including letters, numbers and other symbols, such as punctuation marks or mathematical symbols. alternating current (AC): Electric current that reverses its direction of flow at regular intervals.
G LOSSARY Glossary-3 asynchronous: Lacking regular time relationship. As applied to computer communications, asynchronous refers to the method of transmitting data that does not require a steady stream of bits to be transmitted at regular time intervals.
G LOSSARY Glossary-4 C cache memory: High speed memory which stores data that increases processor speed and data transfer rate. When the CPU reads data from main memory, it stores a copy of this data in cache memory. The next time the CPU needs that same data, it looks for it in the cache memory rather than the main memory, which saves time.
G LOSSARY Glossary-5 compatibility: 1) The ability of one computer to accept and process data in the same manner as another computer without modifying the data or the media upon which it is being transferred. 2) the ability of one device to connect to or communicate with another system or component.
G LOSSARY Glossary-6 device driver: A program that controls communication between a specific peripheral device and the computer. The CONFIG.SYS file contains device drivers that MS-DOS loads when you turn the computer on. dialog box: A window that accepts user input to make system settings or record other information.
G LOSSARY Glossary-7 execute: To interpret and execute an instruction. Extended Capability Port: An industry standard that provides a data buffer, switchable forward and reverse data transmission, and run length encoding (RLE) support.
G LOSSARY Glossary-8 hot dock/undock: Connecting or disconnecting a device to or from the computer while the computer’s power is turned on. hotkey: The computer’s feature in which certain keys in combination with the extended function key, Fn , can be used to set system parameters, such as speaker volume.
G LOSSARY Glossary-9 MDA: Monochrome Display Adapter. A video display protocol defined by the IBM Monochrome Display Adapter and its associated circuitry for direct drive TTL displays that supports a mono- chrome 720x350 text mode. megabyte (MB): A unit of data storage equal to 1024 kilobytes.
G LOSSARY Glossary-10 monitor: A device that uses rows and columns of pixels to display alphanu- meric characters or graphic images. See CRT. motherboard: A name sometimes used to refer to the main printed circuit board in processing equipment.
G LOSSARY Glossary-11 parity: 1) The symmetrical relationship between two parameter values (integers) both of which are either on or off; odd or even; 0 or 1. 2) In serial communications, an error detection bit that is added to a group of data bits making the sum of the bits even or odd.
G LOSSARY Glossary-12 serial: The handling of data bits one after the other. serial communications: A communi- cations technique that uses as few as two interconnecting wires to send bits one after another. serial interface: Refers to a type of information exchange that transmits information sequentially, one bit at a time.
G LOSSARY Glossary-13 S-video: This connection provides separate lines for contrast and color, which produces a video image superior to that produced by a composite connection. See also RCA jack. synchronous: Having a constant time interval between successive bits, characters or events.
