200 Glossary

LAN (Local Area Network)—A group of computers or other devices dispersed over a relatively limited area and connected by a communications link that enables any device to interact with any other on the network.

LED (Light Emitting Diode)—A solid state lamp (SSL) that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as the source of light, which offers long life and high efficiency output. Multiple diodes are used together, since the light created by individual light-emitting diodes is small compared to incandescent and compact fluorescent lamps.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)—A type of display that uses a liquid substance between two transparent electrode panels. When an electric current passes through the electrodes, the molecules in the liquid form a crystalline pattern that polarizes the light passing through it. A filter over the electrodes permits only non-polarized light to pass to the surface of the display, creating light and dark pixels.

load—To move information from a storage device (such as a hard disk)

 

into memory for processing.

 

local area network—SeeLAN.

 

logical drive—A section of a disk that is recognized by the operating

 

system as a separate disk drive. A system’s logical drives may differ

 

from its physical drives. For example, a single hard disk drive may

 

be partitioned into two or more logical drives.

M

memory—Typically refers to the computer’s main memory, where

 

programs are run and data is temporarily stored and processed.

 

Memory can be volatile and hold data temporarily, such as RAM, or

 

it can be nonvolatile and hold data permanently, such as ROM. A

 

computer’s main memory is RAM. See also RAM, ROM.

 

microprocessor—SeeCentral Processing Unit (CPU).

 

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)—A standard for

 

connecting musical instruments, synthesizers, and computers. The

 

MIDI standard provides a way of translating music into a form

 

computers can use, and vice versa.

 

modem—Short for “modulator/demodulator.” A device that converts

 

information from digital to analog, and back to digital, enabling

 

information to pass back and forth between digital computers and

 

analog telephone lines.
