Description
A set of specifications under the Ethernet standards. Those cables consist of
twisted copper wire pairs. The transmission rates of 10Base-T, 100Base-TX and
1000Base-T are respectively 10Mbps, 100Mpbs and 1000Mbps.
®
Software or its file format developed by Adobe Systems Inc. (formerly by Mac-
romedia, Inc.), used to create contents 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.
The generic name for the protocol suite developed by Apple Computer for com-
puter networking.
The abbreviation for binary digit, The smallest unit of information (data quantity)
handled by a computer or printer. A bit uses only a 0 or a 1 to indicate data.
The abbreviation for Bitmap. A file format used to save image data. (The file ex-
tension is ".bmp").
Commonly used on Windows platforms. BMP covers the color depth from mon-
ochrome (2 values) to full color (16,777,216 colors). BMP images are not suitable
for compressed storage.
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.
The abbreviation for Bootstrap Protocol. The protocol is used for a client com-
puter 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 of a display or other screen.
A byte indicates a unit of information (data quantity) handled by a computer or
printer. A byte consists of eight bits.
A computer using services provided by servers via the network.
The acronym for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. The colors in the toner or

A technology for minimizing the difference in colors among different devices
such as scanners, displays and printers.
A device, such as a computer or router, used as a "gateway" to access comput-
ers on different LANs.
The acronym for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The protocol is used for
a client computer on the TCP/IP network to load network configuration automat-
ically from a server. Just using a DHCP server to centrally manage IP addresses
of the DHCP clients enables you to construct a network without IP address con-
flicts or other troubles.
The acronym for Domain Name System. DNS allows for obtaining the IP address
corresponding to a host name in network environments. This system enables a
user to access other computers on the network by specifying host names in-
stead of elusive and non-intuitive IP addresses.
The acronym for Dots Per Inch. A unit of resolution used for printers and scan-
ners. This indicates the number of dots used to represent an inch. The higher this
value, the higher the resolution.
Software that works as a bridge between a computer and a peripheral device.
A standard for LAN transmission lines.
A type of communication format used in NetWare environments. For mutual
communication, the same frame type is required.
The acronym for File Transfer Protocol. This is a protocol used for transferring
