`_ DVMRP
`
`DVMRP n. See Distance Vector Multicast Routing
`Protocol.
`Dvorak keyboard \do-vor’ak ke“bord, doa-vor’zhak\
`n. A keyboardlayout developed by August Dvorak
`and William L. Dealey in 1936 as an alternative to
`the overwhelmingly popular QWERTY keyboard.
`The Dvorak keyboard was designed to speed typing
`by placing the characters on the keyboard for easiest
`access to the most frequently typed letters. In addi-
`tion, pairs of letters that often occur sequentially
`were separated so that the hands could alternate typ-
`ing them.See the illustration. See also ergonomic
`keyboard, keyboard. Compare QWERTYkeyboard.
`
`
`
`Dvorak keyboard.
`DVST n. See direct view storage tube.
`DXF n. Short for drawing interchange format. A
`computer-aided design file format originally devel-
`oped by Autodesk; for use with the AutoCAD pro-
`gram to facilitate transfer of graphicsfiles between
`different applications.
`dyadic \di-ad‘ik’\ adj. Of, pertaining to, or character-
`istic of a pair—for example, a dyadic processor,
`which contains two processors controlled by the
`same operating system. The term is usually limited to
`describing a system with two microprocessors. Dy-
`adic Boolean operations are those such as AND and
`ORin whichthe outcome depends on both values.
`See also Boolean algebra, operand. Compare unary.
`dye-diffusion printer n. See continuous-tone printer.
`dye-polymer recording n. A recording technology
`used with optical discs in which dye embedded in a
`plastic polymer coating on an optical disc is used to
`create minute bumpson the surface that can be read
`by a laser. Dye-polymer bumps can be flattened and
`re-created, thus making an optical disc rewritable.
`dye-sublimation printer 7. See continuous-tone
`printer.
`dynalink n. Short for dynamic link. See dynamic-link
`library.
`

`
`response to user actions, without the need for repeated
`
`dynamic HTML
`
`Dynaload drivers n. Device drivers that are supported
`by Dynaload. Dynaloadis a command that can be
`run from a DOS prompt under IBM’s PC DOS 7 and
`will load compliant device drivers without modifica-
`tion of the CONFIG.SYSfile. See also CONFIG.SYS.
`dynamic adj. Occurring immediately and concurrently.
`The term is used in describing both hardware and soft-
`ware; in both cases it describes some action or event
`that occurs when and as needed. In dynamic memory
`management, a program is able to negotiate with the
`operating system whenit needs more memory.
`dynamic address translation n. On-the-fly conver-
`sion of memory-location references from relative
`addresses (such as “three units from the beginning of
`X”) to absolute addresses (such as “location number
`123”) when a program is run. Acronym: DAT.
`dynamicallocation 1. The allocation of memory dur-
`ing program execution according to current needs.
`Dynamic allocation almost always implies that dy-
`namic deallocation is possible too, so data structures
`can be created and destroyed as required. See also
`allocate, deallocate. Compare static allocation.
`dynamic binding 7. Binding (converting symbolic
`addresses in the program to storage-related ad-
`dresses) that occurs during program execution. The
`term often refers to object-oriented applications that
`determine, during run time, which software routines
`to call for particular data objects. Also called late
`binding. Compare static binding.
`- dynamic caching 7. A technique for storing recently
`used data in memory wherecachesize is based on
`how much memory is available rather than how much
`memory is assignedto the application currently running.
`Dynamic Data Exchange a.See DDE.
`dynamic dump n.A listing, either stored on disk or
`sent to a printer, of memory contents generated at the
`time of a break in the execution of a program-——a use-
`ful tool for programmersinterested in knowing what
`is happening at a certain point in the execution of a
`program.
`Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol n. See DHCP.
`dynamic HTML 1. A technology designed to add
`richness, interactivity, and graphical interest to Web
`pages by providing those pages with the ability to
`change and update themselves dynamically, that is, in
`
`
`
`keys
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`downleads from a server. Dynamic HTML enables
`client-side scripts programsthat affect elements on a
`
`Web page produced with languages such as VBScript
`and JavaScript to control and manipulate elements,
`
`_ suchas fonts and graphics, by means of HTML tags
`
`_ that describe how the page is to appear on the user’s
`_ Screen. From the user’s point of view, dynamic
`
`HTML producesthe type of interactivity and rela-
`_ tively rapid download timesassociated with multime-
`__ dia CD-ROMproducts. Examples of dynamic HTML
`actions include moving graphics on the page and dis-
`_ playing information, such as menusortables, in re-
`sponse to mouse movementsor clicks. A numberof
`__ vendors, including Microsoft and Netscape, have
`developed their own versions of Dynamic HTML and
`have submitted them to the World Wide Web Consor-
`tium (W3C)for possible inclusion in the Document
`Object Model (DOM)specification being developed
`by W3C. See also Document Object Model.
`dynamic keys n. An encryption technique in which
`messages are encrypted differently for each transmis-
`
`sion based on different keys so that if a key is cap-
`tured and decrypted, it would never be useful again.
`See also encryption, key (definition 3).
`dynamic-link library n. A feature of the Microsoft
`Windowsfamily of operating systems and OS/2 that
`allows executable routines to be stored separately as
`files with DLL extensions and to be loaded only
`when needed by a program. A dynamic-link library
`has several advantages. First, it does not consume
`any memory until it is used. Second, because a dy-
`namic-link library is a separate file, a programmer
`can make corrections or improvements to only that
`module without affecting the operation of the calling
`program or any other dynamic-link library. Finally, a
`programmer can use the same dynamic-link library
`with other programs. Acronym: DLL.
`dynamic memoryallocation 1. The allocation of
`memory to a process or program at run time. Dy-
`namic memory is allocated from the system heap by
`the operating system upon request from the program.
`dynamic page n. An HTML documentthat contains
`animated GIFs, Java applets, or ActiveX controls.
`See also ActiveX control, GIF, HTML,Java applet.
`
`
`
`dynamic Web page
`
`dynamic RAM \di-nam‘ik ram\ n. A form of semi-
`conductor random access memory (RAM). Dynamic
`RAMsstore information in integrated circuits con-
`taining capacitors. Because capacitors lose their
`charge over time, dynamic RAM boards must include
`logic to refresh (recharge) the RAM chips continu-
`ously. While a dynamic RAM is being refreshed,it
`cannot be read by the processor; if the processor
`must read the RAM whileit is being refreshed, one
`or more wait states occur. Despite being slower, dy-
`namic RAMsare more commonly used than RAMs
`because their circuitry is simpler and because they
`can hold up to four times as much data. Acronym:
`DRAM.See also RAM. Compare static RAM.
`dynamic random access memory n. See dynamic
`RAM.
`
`dynamic relocation n. The relocation in memory of
`data or of the code of a currently running program by
`an internal system routine. Dynamic relocation helps
`a computer use memory efficiently.
`dynamic scheduling n. The management of concur-
`rently running processes (programs), usually by the
`operating system.
`dynamic SLIP \di-nam‘ik slip\ n. Short for dynamic
`Serial Line Internet Protocol. Internet access under
`SLIP in which the user’s IP address is not permanent
`but is reassigned from a pool each time the user con-
`nects. The numberof IP addresses an Internet service
`providerneeds to offer is reduced to the number of con-
`nections that can be in use at once, rather than the total
`numberof subscribers. See also IP address, ISP, SLIP.
`
`dynamic storage n. 1. Information storage systems
`whosecontents will be lost if power is removed from
`the system. RAM (random access memory) systems
`are the most common form of dynamic storage, and
`both dynamic RAM (DRAM)andstatic RAM
`(SRAM)are considered forms of dynamic storage.
`See also dynamic RAM,static RAM. Compare per-
`manentstorage. 2. In programming, blocks of
`memory that can be allocated, deallocated, or freely
`changedin size.
`dynamic Web page n. A Web pagethat has fixed
`form but variable content, allowing it to be tailored
`to a customer’s searchcriteria.
