Description
10Base-T/
100Base-TX/
1000Base-T
Standard for the Ethernet and one of the specifications. Cables made of 2 stranded
copper wire rods are used. Communication speed is 10Mbps with 10Base-T,
100Mbps with 100Base-TX, and 1000Mbps with 1000Base-T.
Adobe
®
Flash
®
Software or its file format developed by Adobe Systems Inc. (formerly by Macromedia,
Inc.), used to create a content by compiling vector-graphic animations and sounds.
The software allows handling interactive contents using keyboard or mouse. The files
can be kept relatively compact and accessed from a Web browser with dedicated
plug-in software.
AppleTalk
The generic name for the protocol suite developed by Apple Computer for computer
networking.
bit
The abbreviation for binary digit. The smallest unit of information (data quantity) han-
dled by a computer or printer. A bit uses only a 0 or a 1 to indicate data.
BMP
The abbreviation for bitmap. This is a file format for saving image data. (Extension:
".bmp")
Commonly used on Windows platforms. BMP covers the color depth from mono-
chrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). BMP images are not suitable for
compressed storage.
Bonjour
A Macintosh network technology, automatically detecting a device connected to the
network for automatic configuration. Previously called "Rendezvous", and has been
changed to "Bonjour" since Mac OS X v10.4.
BOOTP
The abbreviation for Bootstrap Protocol. The protocol is used for a client computer on
the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from a server. Instead
of BOOTP, DHCP, an advanced protocol based on BOOTP, is typically used today.
Brightness
Brightness of a display or other screen.
Byte
A byte indicates a unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or printer.
A byte consists of eight bits.
client
A computer using services provided by servers via the network.
Default Gateway
A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access computers on
different LANs.
DHCP
The acronym for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The protocol is used for a cli-
ent computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automatically from
a server. Just using a DHCP server to centrally manage IP addresses of the DHCP cli-
ents enables you to construct a network without IP address conflicts or other troubles.
DNS
Abbreviation of Domain Name Systems. DNS allows for obtaining the IP address cor-
responding to a host name in network environments. This system enables a user to
access other computers on the network by specifying host names instead of elusive
and non-intuitive IP addresses.
DPI (dpi)
Abbreviation of Dots Per Inch.
Unit of resolution used with printers, scanners, etc.
This indicates the number of dots used to represent an inch. The higher this value, the
higher the resolution.
Driver
Software to act intermediately between the computer and peripheral devices.
Ethernet
Standard for the LAN transmission line.
Frame type
A type of communication format used in NetWare environments. For mutual commu-
nication, the same frame type is required.
FTP
Abbreviation of File Transfer Protocol.
A protocol used to transfer files on the TCP/IP
network such as Internet, Intranet, etc.
Gateway
Hardware or software serving as a point connecting networks.
A gateway not only
connects networks but also changes data formats, addresses, and protocols accord-
ing to the connected networks.
Gray Scale
A form of presenting monochrome image by using the gradation information shifting
from black to white.
Hard disk
Mass storage device to save data.
The data is retained even after the power is turned off.
Host Name
Name of a device on the network.
