FQDN Fully Qualified Domain Name. A full domain name, consisting of its local host name and its domain name. An FQDN is sufficient to ascertain a specific Internet address for any host on the Internet. This (name resolution) process uses DNS (Domain Name System). H HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol. The client-server TCP/IP protocol used on the World Wide Web for the transfer of HTML (Hyper Text Mark-up Language) documents across the Internet. J 4 Appendix JBIG Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group. An experts group file specification that defines a standard for compressing (reducing the size of) image files without any loss in image information. Files containing photographic images in Web pages are generally compressed so they can be transferred across the Internet more quickly. JPEG, the format currently used, causes some loss in image data after compression and so reduces image quality. JBIG compression overcomes this shortcoming. JPEG Joint Photographic Experts Group. An experts group file specification that defines a standard for compressing (reducing the size of) photographic and photorealistic image files. The image compression method used involves some loss of information, and so reduces image quality. Files containing photographic images in Web pages are generally compressed by using the JPEG format so they can be transferred across the Internet more quickly. P Protocol A set of rules that govern the transmission of data across a network. Examples of protocols are FTP, DHCP, BOOTP, RARP, and TCP/IP. Proxy server A server that provides a cache of files available on remote servers that are slow or expensive to access. The term "proxy server" normally refers to a World Wide Web server that, upon receiving a URL, tries to supply the requested file from its cache. If the proxy server cannot locate the file in its cache, it obtains the file from the remote server, and saves a copy in its cache so that the next request can be obtained locally. Glossary 4-3
