In computer science, the initial sequence of events (usually preprogrammed in firmware present in the computer) that are necessary to start a computer; i.e., to initialize its operating system, load programs into memory, etc. , when (a) it is first powered up, or (b) when already powered up, upon some kind of assenting action by the user.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer science and technology, the special hardware within the computer optimized for the display of real-time 3D graphics.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer science, a software-oriented compression process based on continuous analysis of the data stream, and depending on the type and content of the data and the storage medium, corresponding compensation of the compression algorithm.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer programming, a target language into which all or part of a single statement or a source program--in a source language--is translated before it is further translated or interpreted. Note: For a subsequent translation, an intermediate language may serve as a source language.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer programming, a partial computer address that uses the base address of the computer program, in which it appears, as the ellipsed component of the partial address. Note 1: A program that uses self-relative addresses will be portable, in that all related programs and subroutines can be moved, together, to a different computer or subdirectory, and all components will still be accessible. Note 2: An example would be a Web page with a complete address of http://www. Example. Com/menu. Html. If that page links to another page, at that same website, with the complete address of http://www. Example. Com/index. Html, that link could be written as a self-relative address, as index. Html. A browser, reading this link, would "assume" that the complete address of that page must include the base address of the first page (i.e., http:///www. Example. Com/. )
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer operations, a mode of operation that allows execution of job instructions received from a remote site and return of the output to the same or a different remote site via a communications link.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer networking, one who has met proprietary training and certification requirements pertinent to network design or maintenance. Note: The training requirements embrace both software and hardware configuration.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer networking, a technique for connecting two networks via a third, while totally isolating the connected traffic from other traffic in the third network. 2. Technology enabling one network to send its data via another network's connections. Tunneling works by encapsulating a network protocol within packets carried by the second network.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer networking, a software modification or installation performed remotely from an originating site (e.g., by authority of a network administrator) on a subject user's computer, by means of a special utility program that enables access to the subject computer whenever it is powered up and on line. Note: An online software upgrade may be performed (a) automatically, without the consent and, perhaps, without the knowledge of the user, (b) semi-automatically, in which case an application resident on the networked computer will, upon every bootup, automatically check the originating site and notify the user if an upgrade is available (if so, some kind of assenting action on the part of the user is necessary to retrieve it,) or (c) manually, in which case the user must check the originating site periodically to determine whether an upgrade is available, and take some kind of assenting action to retrieve it.
Industry:Telecommunications
In computer graphics, the capability of a display surface or storage device to accommodate a specified number of uniquely identifiable points. 2. In micrographics, the capability of a specified field frame to contain a specific number of uniquely identifiable points. Note: The addressability is usually specified as the number of identifiable horizontal points by the number of identifiable vertical points, such as 3000 by 4000.
