See also binary. analog: A continuous electrical signal that can vary in frequency and amplitude.
Page 191 authoring program: A software development environment used to create multimedia applications that reduce complex instructions to simple user tasks such as menu selection, mouse manipulation or typing. Such programs enable communicators to develop interactive courseware or presentations on personal computers without extensive programming knowledge. AUTOEXEC.BAT: A batch file containing MS-DOS commands that the computer performs every time you start or restart it.
Page 192 baud (baud rate): The speed at which communications devices such as printers, terminals, and modems transmit information. Information travels as a series of electronic signals. The baud rate measures the rate of change in these signals. This is not necessarily the same as bits per second, although the two are related.
Page 193 boot: To start the computer. There are two types of boot. Turning on the power is called a cold boot. Restarting the computer by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del or the restart button is called a warm boot. The term boot originates from bootstrap program (as in pulling itself up by its bootstraps), a program that loads and initializes the operating system.
Page 194 byte: A sequence of eight bits. A byte is the smallest addressable unit of data. Each byte represents an integer up to 255 in decimal (11111111 in binary, or FF in hexadecimal), or a character (such as a letter, numeral, or other symbol). See also binary, bit, gigabyte, hexadecimal, kilobyte, megabyte.
Page 195 channel: 1) A path for passing information between devices in a computer system. 2) In communications, a means of transferring information in analog or digital form. It may consist of a physical link such as a cable or it may use infrared, radio or optical transmission.

See also macro, program. communications: The means by which a computer sends data to and receives data from another computer or device.
Page 197 controller: An electronic device that automatically operates a unit or regulates a process. For example, the computer’s built-in disk drive controller takes information from the computer and translates it into a form usable by the hard drive. Unlike an adapter, which in its simplest form can be hardware only, a controller always includes firmware or software.
Page 198 Tools used to help solve installation and configuration problems. The Toshiba Server Setup Tool and System Setup Utility are examples of diagnostic tools. dialog box: 1) A box requesting information. Typically it contains a combination of buttons, lists and text-entry boxes.
Page 199 Direct Memory Access (DMA): A dedicated channel which bypasses the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and enables a device to access memory directly. If two devices use the same DMA channel, the data required by one device overwrites the data required by the other--this is one type of hardware conflict. To resolve the conflict, you must reassign one of the devices to a vacant DMA channel.
Page 200 disk striping: The spreading of data over multiple hard disks to improve performance. The technique combines a set of partitions (which must all be the same size) residing on separate disks into a single volume which the operating system treats as a logical drive. All the partitions can be accessed at once, greatly increasing data throughput.
Page 201 dual in-line package (DIP): A standard for packaging integrated circuits by enclosing them in a rectangle of ceramic or plastic with downward-pointing connection pins. DSP: A digital signal processor is a chip designed for real-time applications. DSP techniques are used in PC processors as well as media engines. For example, some high-end notebooks use a DSP chip to provide Sound Blaster emulation as well as 28.8 modem support.
Page 202 Ethernet: A local area network (LAN) standard for hardware, communications and cabling. It links network nodes in a bus topology using coaxial cable, or in a star topology using fiber-optic cable or twisted-pair cable. Normally, all nodes share the total bandwidth, which is 10 Mbps (Ethernet), 100 Mbps (Fast Ethernet) or 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet).
Page 203 file name extension: The characters at the end of a file name, starting with a period. They indicate the type of file. In Windows and DOS, extensions consist of three characters apart from the period. Examples are .EXE for program files, .HLP for help files, .BMP for bitmap files, .INI for initialization files.
