  • concurrent object-oriented language — (language)   (COOL) An extension of C++ with task-level parallelism for shared-memory multi-processors. E-mail: Rohit Chandra <[email protected]>.
  • dijkstra's guarded command language — (language)   A language invented by Edsger Dijkstra ca. 1974. It introduced the concept of guards and committed choice nondeterminism (don't care nondeterminism). Described and used in ["A Discipline of Programming", E. Dijkstra, P-H 1976].
  • dynamic host configuration protocol — (protocol)   (DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease concept with a controllable time period. DHCP is defined in RFC 2131.
  • federal insurance contributions act — a law requiring that employees and employers alike contribute towards the cost of Social Security and Medicare
  • filled to the brim/full to the brim — If something, especially a container, is filled to the brim or full to the brim with something, it is filled right up to the top.
  • he couldn't raffle a chook in a pub — he is incapable of carrying out even the simplest of tasks
  • international computers limited plc — (company)   (ICL) A UK hardware and software manufacturer specialising in systems integration in selected markets, supported by its service and technology businesses. ICL operates in over 80 countries worldwide, with 24000 employees and revenues of £2.6 billion in 1993. ICL produced George 2, George 3, VME, OpenVME, Series 39, DME, CME, the ICL 1900 and ICL 2900 series.
  • inverse address resolution protocol — (networking, protocol)   (InARP) Additions to ARP typically used for Frame Relay. [Any other examples of its use?] InARP allows a station to determine a protocol address (e.g. IP address) from a DLCI. This is useful if a new virtual circuit becomes available. Signalling messages announce its DLCI, but without the corresponding protocol address it is unusable: no frames can be routed to it. See RFC 2390.
  • law of diminishing marginal utility — the law that for a single consumer the marginal utility of a commodity diminishes for each additional unit of the commodity consumed.
  • let the grass grow under one's feet — any plant of the family Gramineae, having jointed stems, sheathing leaves, and seedlike grains. Compare grass family.
  • linux network administrators' guide — (NAG) A book on setting up and running Unix networks. NAG is freely available in electronic form. It was produced by Olaf Kirch, <[email protected]> and others as part of the Linux Documentation Project with help from O'Reilly and Associates. It includes the following sections: Introduction to Networking, Issues of TCP/IP Networking, Configuring the Networking Hardware, Setting up the Serial Hardware, Configuring TCP/IP Networking, Name Service and Resolver Configuraton, Serial Line IP, The Point-to-Point Protocol, Various Network Applications, The Network Information System, The Network File System, Managing Taylor UUCP, Electronic Mail, Getting smail Up and Running, Sendmail+IDA, Netnews, C News, A Description of NNTP, Newsreader Configuration, Glossary, Annotated Bibliography.
  • moldavian soviet socialist republic — a republic of the U.S.S.R.
  • multimedia internet mail extensions — Called Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions in the RFC.
  • national guard of the united states — those members and units of the National Guard that have been accorded federal recognition as a reserve component of the Army or Air Force of the U.S.
  • national science foundation network — (NSFNET) A high speed hierarchical "network of networks" in the US, funded by the National Science Foundation. At the highest level, it is a backbone network comprising 16 nodes connected to a 45Mb/s facility which spans the continental United States. Attached to that are mid-level networks and attached to the mid-levels are campus and local networks. NSFNET also has connections out of the US to Canada, Mexico, Europe, and the Pacific Rim. The NSFNET is part of the Internet.
  • partial response maximum likelihood — (storage)   (PRML) A method for converting the weak analog signal from the head of a magnetic disk drive into a digital signal. PRML attempts to correctly interpret even small changes in the analog signal, whereas peak detection relies on fixed thresholds. Because PRML can correctly decode a weaker signal it allows higher density recording. For example, PRML would read the magnetic flux density pattern 70, 60, 55, 60, 70 as binary "101", and the same for 45, 40, 30, 40, 45. A peak detector would decode everything above, say, 50 as high, and below 50 as low, so the first pattern would read "111" and the second as "000".
  • perpetual motion of the second kind — motion of a hypothetical mechanism that derives its energy from a source at a lower temperature. It is impossible in practice because of the second law of thermodynamics
  • principle of mathematical induction — a law in set theory which states that if a set is a subset of the set of all positive integers and contains 1, and if for each number in the given set the succeeding natural number is in the set, then the given set is identical to the set of all positive integers. Compare induction (def 5).
  • reverse address resolution protocol — (networking, protocol)   (RARP) A protocol defined in RFC 903 which provides the reverse function of ARP. RARP maps a hardware address (MAC address) to an IP address. It is used primarily by diskless nodes, when they first initialise, to find their IP address. See also BOOTP.
  • sixty-four thousand dollar question — a crucial question or issue
  • standard instrument control library — (SICL) A platform-independent API for software to control and test electronic instruments conforming to IEEE 488.
  • target-machine description language — (TMDL) The machine-description language used in the Graham-Glanville code generator.
  • trust-territory-the-pacific-islands — a U.S. trust territory in the Pacific Ocean, comprising the Mariana, Marshall, and Caroline Islands: approved by the United Nations 1947; since 1976 constituents of the trusteeship have established or moved toward self-government. 717 sq. mi. (1857 sq. km).
  • virgin islands of the united states — a territory of the US in the Caribbean, consisting of islands west and south of the British Virgin Islands: purchased from Denmark in 1917 for their strategic importance. Capital: Charlotte Amalie. Pop: 104 737 (2013 est). Area: 344 sq km (133 sq miles)
