34-letter words containing a, d, e, l, i, c
- advanced scsi peripheral interface — (storage, programming) (ASPI) A set of libraries designed to provide programs running under Microsoft Windows with a consistent interface for accessing SCSI devices. ASPI has become a de facto standard. The ASPI layer is a collection of programs (DLLs) that together implement the ASPI interface. Many problems are caused by device manufacturers packaging incomplete sets of these DLLs with their hardware, often with incorrect date stamps, causing newer versions to get replaced with old. ASPICHK from Adaptec will check the ASPI components installed on a computer. The latest ASPI layer as of March 1999 is 1014. The ATAPI standard for IDE devices makes them look to the system like SCSI devices and allows them to work through ASPI.
- ahead of the pack/leading the pack — You can say that someone is ahead of the pack or leading the pack if they are ahead of everyone else in a race or competition.
- asymmetric digital subscriber line — An asymmetric digital subscriber line is a method for moving data over phone lines, carrying much more data than a modem can encode on a normal phone connection.
- asymmetric digital subscriber loop — Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line
- before you could say jack robinson — extremely quickly or suddenly
- commonwealth of independent states — a loose organization of former Soviet republics, excluding the Baltic States, formed in 1991
- continuous system modeling program — (simulation) (CSMP) A program for simulation of dynamics of continuous systems by numerical integration of complex systems of differential equations. CSMP is similar to CSSL.
- digital signal processing language — (language) (DSPL) A C-derived DSP language.
- dynamic systems development method — (programming) (DSDM) An independent software development framework.
- ferroelectric random access memory — (storage) (FRAM) A type of non-volatile read/write random access semiconductor memory. FRAM combines the advantages of SRAM - writing is roughly as fast as reading, and EPROM - non-volatility and in-circuit programmability. Current (Feb 1997) disadvantages are high cost and low density, but that may change in the future. Density is currently at most 32KB on a chip, compared with 512KB for SRAM, 1MB for EPROM and 8MB for DRAM. A ferroelectric memory cell consists of a ferroelectric capacitor and a MOS transistor. Its construction is similar to the storage cell of a DRAM. The difference is in the dielectric properties of the material between the capacitor's electrodes. This material has a high dielectric constant and can be polarized by an electric field. The polarisation remains until it gets reversed by an opposite electrical field. This makes the memory non-volatile. Note that ferroelectric material, despite its name, does not necessarily contain iron. The most well-known ferroelectric substance is BaTiO3, which does not contain iron. Data is read by applying an electric field to the capacitor. If this switches the cell into the opposite state (flipping over the electrical dipoles in the ferroelectric material) then more charge is moved than if the cell was not flipped. This can be detected and amplified by sense amplifiers. Reading destroys the contents of a cell which must therefore be written back after a read. This is similar to the precharge operation in DRAM, though it only needs to be done after a read rather than periodically as with DRAM refresh. In fact it is most like the operation of ferrite core memory. FRAM has similar applications to EEPROM, but can be written much faster. The simplicity of the memory cell promises high density devices which can compete with DRAM.
- fluorescence-activated cell sorter — FACS.
- frequency division multiple access — frequency division multiplexing
- in good king charles's golden days — a ballad in which a vicar of the Stuart period changes faith to keep his living
- industrial development certificate — (in Britain) a certificate issued by the Department of the Environment to an industrial organization wishing to build or extend a factory, which has to accompany an application for planning permission
- inertial guidance (or navigation) — a self-contained, automatic guidance system composed of gyroscopes, accelerometers, and computers and used to control rockets, airplanes, submarines, etc.: it continuously measures acceleration, calculates the present speed and position, and compares this to an assigned course
- interactive data analysis language — (language) (IDL) A language from Xerox, built on Interlisp-D.
- international accounting standards — International accounting standards are a set of internationally-agreed principles and procedures relating to the way that companies present their accounts.
- kicking dead whales down the beach — (jargon, humour) A simile for a slow, difficult, and disgusting process. First popularised by a famous quote about the difficulty of getting work done under one of IBM's mainframe OSes. "Well, you *could* write a C compiler in COBOL, but it would be like kicking dead whales down the beach."
- lead/have/live/bear a charmed life — If you say that someone leads or has a charmed life, you mean that they always seem to be lucky, as if they are protected or helped by magic.
- multiple instruction multiple data — Multiple Instruction/Multiple Data
- nova scotia duck tolling retriever — a Canadian variety of retriever
- processor system modeling language — (language) (PSML) A language for simulating computer systems designs, implemented as a preprocessor to SIMSCRIPT.
- real-time object-oriented modeling — (programming) (ROOM Methodology)
- rumour/legend/tradition etc has it — You can use has it in expressions such as 'rumour has it that' or 'as legend has it' when you are quoting something that you have heard, but you do not necessarily think it is true.
- social democratic and labour party — a Northern Irish political party, which advocates peaceful union with the Republic of Ireland
- supercalifragilisticexpialidocious — (used as a nonsense word by children to express approval or to represent the longest word in English.)
- switched multimegabit data service — (networking) (SMDS) An emerging high-speed datagram-based public data network service developed by Bellcore and expected to be widely used by telephone companies as the basis for their data networks. See also Metropolitan Area Network.
- to wash your dirty linen in public — If you say that someone washes their dirty linen in public, you disapprove of their discussing or arguing about unpleasant or private things in front of other people. There are several other forms of this expression, for example wash your dirty laundry in public, or in American English, air your dirty laundry in public.
