- 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.
- distributed component object model — (programming) (DCOM) Microsoft's extension of their Component Object Model (COM) to support objects distributed across a network. DCOM has been submitted to the IETF as a draft standard. Since 1996, it has been part of Windows NT and is also available for Windows 95. Unlike CORBA, which runs on many operating systems, DCOM is currently (Dec 1997) only implemented by Microsoft for Microsoft Windows and by Software AG, under the name "EntireX", for Unix and IBM mainframes. DCOM serves the same purpose as IBM's DSOM protocol. DCOM is broken because it's an object model that has no provisions for inheritance, one of the major reasons for object oriented programming in the first place.
- dynamic systems development method — (programming) (DSDM) An independent software development framework.
- 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
- give someone a piece of one's mind — (in a human or other conscious being) the element, part, substance, or process that reasons, thinks, feels, wills, perceives, judges, etc.: the processes of the human mind.
- 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
- 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."
- multiple instruction multiple data — Multiple Instruction/Multiple Data
- non-destructive testing techniques — Non-destructive testing techniques are methods of testing for or measuring flaws which do not destroy the thing, for example a pipeline, that is being tested.
- 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.
- 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.
