GLOSSARY

binary digit (bit) In the binary numbering system, either of the characters 0 or 1. The bit is the basic unit of information with which a computer works. It can take the form of a magnetized spot, an electric pulse, a positive or negative charge, etc. A number of bits strung together represents a character to a computer.

Multipliers are:

1 byte = 8 bits

1 kilobyte (KB) or 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits

1 megabyte (MB) or 1,048,576 bytes = 8,388,608 bits.

Computer space equivalents are:

1.5KB = about 1 single-spaced typed page 30 KB = about 20 typed pages

150 KB = about 100 typed pages

bitmap Electronic definition of an image, comprised of a matrix of picture elements (pixels or dots), where a bit value of one means that the picture element is imaged, and a bit value of zero means that the picture element is not imaged. The number of picture elements in a square area is a function of the display device resolution.

bit mapped Display image generated bit by bit for each point or dot. A software-driven scanner is used to create characters and/or graphics.

bits per second (bps) In serial communication, the instantaneous bit speed with which a device or channel transmits a character.

blocking Process of combining two or more records into a single block of data which can then be moved, operated upon, stored, etc., as a single unit by the computer.

block length Number of characters or bytes contained in a block of data (the block is treated as a unit within the computer). Block length is usually invariable within a system and may be specified in units such as records, words, computer words, or characters.

boot To load a program’s initial instructions of a program into the computer’s memory. These instructions then direct the loading of the rest of the program. Booting may require entry of a few commands at the keyboard or the flip of a switch to begin the process.
