A reversible procedure for coding that assigns shorter code-words to frequent events and longer code-words to less frequent events.
Industry:Software
a) Special type of disk drive designed for moving very large amounts of information as quickly as possible.
b) A very widely used high data rate general purpose parallel interface.
A maximum of eight devices can be connected to one bus, for example a controller, and up to seven disks or devices of different sorts - Winchester disks, optical disks, tape drives, etc., and may be shared between several computers. SCSI specifies a cabling standard (50-way), a protocol for sending and receiving commands and their format. It is intended as a device-independent interface so the host computer needs no details about the peripherals it controls. But with two versions (single-ended and balanced), two types of connectors and numerous variations in the level of implementation of the interface, SCSI devices cannot “plug & play” on a computer with which they have not been tested. Also, with total bus cabling for the popular single-ended configuration limited to 18 feet (6 meters), all devices must be close to each other.
Industry:Software
The management of multiple signals by transmitting or receiving each on its own assigned frequency.
Industry:Software
Slow, periodic variations in the speed of the tape, characterized by its effect on pitch. A measure of non-uniform movement of magnetic tape or other recording parts.
Industry:Software
a) A device for scanning photographic motion-picture images and transcoding them into an electronic signal in one of the standardized or accepted video formats. b) Film scanner is a general term, and may be applied to slow-rate as well as real-time transcoding, and may provide the input to a recorder, a signal processor, a transmission channel, or any other desired peripheral system.
