34-letter words containing a, d, r, i, t, c

  • adaptive communication environment — (communications, tool)   A C++ wrapper library for communications from the University of California at Irvine.
  • adaptive transform acoustic coding — (algorithm)   (ATRAC) An audio compression algorithm, introduced by Sony for its Mini Disk, which relies on the masking of low-amplitude frequency components by temporaly adjacent high-amplitude components. ATRAC consists of a three-band subband encoder (0...5.5, 5.5...11, 11...22 kHz) and a MDCT based transformation encoder.
  • 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.
  • american friends service committee — a social-service organization founded 1917 by the Religious Society of Friends: Nobel Peace Prize 1947. Abbreviation: AFSC, A.F.S.C.
  • 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
  • be charm, success, etc personified — to be very charming, successful, etc
  • come to a head/bring sth to a head — If a problem or disagreement comes to a head or is brought to a head, it becomes so bad that something must be done about it.
  • consumer product safety commission — an independent regulatory agency, created in 1972, that protects the public against risk of injury from consumer products. Abbreviation: CPSC.
  • 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.
  • defense information systems agency — (DISA) Formerly called the Defense Communications Agency (DCA), this is the government agency responsible for managing the Defense Data Network (DDN) portion of the Internet, including the MILNET. Currently, DISA administers the DDN, and supports the user assistance services of the DDN NIC.
  • digital signal processing language — (language)   (DSPL) A C-derived DSP language.
  • export credit guarantee department — an agency providing insurance to exporters of British goods and services
  • extended system configuration data — (operating system)   (ESCD) An area of memory, not exceeding 32 kilobytes in size, used by MS-DOS(?) as NVRAM for PNP BIOS and PNP OS. It must be writeable at run time. Intel's ICU also uses ESCD to store information for PNP ISA cards and legacy ISA cards.
  • 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
  • independent computing architecture — (protocol)   (ICA) Citrix's proprietary protocol that allows client desktop computers to run applications on application servers. Originally used between Windows systems, ICA is now also suported on Unix and Macintosh desktops and servers as well as some thin client hardware.
  • 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.
  • 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)
  • recursive macro actuated generator — (tool)   (RMAG) Robert A. Magnuson, NIH ca 1970. A stand-alone macroprocessor for IBM 360/370 under VS or OS. Many built-in features and a library of several hundred macros. Several large systems were written in RMAG to generate source code for languages such as IBM JCL, IBM assembly language, COBOL. There was also a system (SLANG: Structured LANGuage compiler) which would generate 370 assembly language from a pseudo-structured-programming language, based on Michael Kessler's structure programming macros developed at IBM.
  • 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.
  • securities and exchange commission — SEC.
  • social democratic and labour party — a Northern Irish political party, which advocates peaceful union with the Republic of Ireland
