JXDUGLQJ

A type of data redundancy that uses a set of physical drives to store data and a sin- gle, additional drive to store parity data.

Using guarding, the user’s data is protect- ed from the loss of a single drive. Guarding is sometimes preferred over mirroring because it is more cost effective in systems with a very high storage capac- ity. However, guarded configurations are significantly slower for applications that frequently write to the array, because each attempt to write to the array requires multiple read and write commands to maintain the parity information. If this is a problem, mirroring or duplexing is a better choice. See also mirroring, RAID 4, and RAID 5.

*8,

Acronym for graphical user interface.

K

Abbreviation for hexadecimal. A base-16 numbering system, often used in pro- gramming to identify addresses in the computer’s RAM and I/O memory ad- dresses for devices. The sequence of decimal numbers from 0 through 16, for example, is expressed in hexadecimal no- tation as: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B,

C, D, E, F, 10. In text, hexadecimal num- bers are often followed by h or preceded by 0x. MS-DOS conventional memory—the first 640 KB of memory addresses—is from 00000h to 9FFFFh; the MS-DOS upper memory area—memory addresses be- tween 640 KB and 1 MB—is from A0000h to FFFFFh.

KHDW￿VLQN

A metal plate with metal pegs or ribs that help dissipate heat. Some micro- processors include a heat sink.

+,3

Acronym for Hardware Instrumentation Package (HIP)

+0$

Abbreviation for high memory area. The first 64 KB of extended memory above

1MB. A memory manager that conforms to the XMS can make the HMA a direct extension of conventional memory. See also conventional memory, memory manager, upper memory area, and XMM.

KRVW￿DGDSWHU

Ahost adapter implements communica- tion between the computer’s bus and the controller for a peripheral. (Hard-disk drive controller subsystems include integrated host adapter circuitry.) To add a SCSI ex- pansion bus to your system, you must install the appropriate host adapter.

+3)6

Abbreviation for the High Performance File System option in the Windows NT op- erating system.

+]

Abbreviation for hertz.

,￿2

Abbreviation for input/output. The key- board and a printer, for example, are I/O devices. In general, I/O activity can be dif- ferentiated from computational activity. For example, when a program sends a document to the printer, it is engaging in I/O activity; when the program sorts a list of terms, it is engaging in computational activity.
