1 interface
"Software that enables a program to work with the user (the user interface, which can be a command-line interface, menu-driven, or a graphical user interface), with another program such as the operating system, or with the computer's hardware." -
2 Musical Instrument Digital Interface
"A specification of the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA). The specification defines a protocol for describing music data, such as note on and note off messages; a file format for storing music data, called Standard MIDI; and a standard hardware interface."English-Arabic terms dictionary > Musical Instrument Digital Interface
-
3 Extensible Firmware Interface
"A type of interface between a computer, firmware, hardware, and the operating system. EFI defines a new partition style called GUID partition table (GPT). EFI serves the same purpose as the basic input/output system (BIOS) found in most x86-based computers."English-Arabic terms dictionary > Extensible Firmware Interface
-
4 embedded controller interface
"A standard hardware and software communications interface between an operating system driver and an embedded controller, such as Smart Battery and AML code. This allows any operating system to provide a standard driver that can directly communicate with an embedded controller in the system, thus allowing other drivers to communicate with and use the resources of the system embedded controllers."English-Arabic terms dictionary > embedded controller interface
-
5 Graphics Device Interface
"An executable program that processes graphical function calls from a Windows-based application and passes those calls to the appropriate device driver, which performs the hardware-specific functions that generate output. By acting as a buffer between applications and output devices, GDI presents a device-independent view of the world for the application while interacting in a device-dependent format with the device." -
6 Messaging Application Programming Interface
A messaging architecture that enables multiple applications to interact with multiple messaging systems across a variety of hardware platforms. MAPI is built on the Component Object Model (COM) foundation.English-Arabic terms dictionary > Messaging Application Programming Interface
-
7 MIDI
"A specification of the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA). The specification defines a protocol for describing music data, such as note on and note off messages; a file format for storing music data, called Standard MIDI; and a standard hardware interface." -
8 port
A hardware- or software-based interface used to transfer information between a computer and other devices. Hardware ports are physical connections that are visible on the outside of the computer. Software ports are the numbered gateways in programs that software programs use to exchange information. -
9 Advanced Power Management
An older power management technology used in mobile PCs before the implementation of Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). Advanced Power Management is a software interface that functions between the BIOS power-management software that is specific to the hardware and a power-management policy driver that is run by the operating system. -
10 APM
An older power management technology used in mobile PCs before the implementation of Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI). Advanced Power Management is a software interface that functions between the BIOS power-management software that is specific to the hardware and a power-management policy driver that is run by the operating system. -
11 WinSock direct
"A common programming interface to the lower-level system area network (SAN) implementations, developed by Microsoft. WSD sits underneath the standard WinSock application programming interface (API), but bypasses the kernel networking layers to talk directly to the SAN hardware. Because WSD sits underneath the existing WinSock API, IT departments can deploy applications in a SAN environment without modifying the applications." -
12 WSD
"A common programming interface to the lower-level system area network (SAN) implementations, developed by Microsoft. WSD sits underneath the standard WinSock application programming interface (API), but bypasses the kernel networking layers to talk directly to the SAN hardware. Because WSD sits underneath the existing WinSock API, IT departments can deploy applications in a SAN environment without modifying the applications." -
13 accessibility
"The quality of a system incorporating hardware or software to engage a flexible, customizable user interface, alternative input and output methods, and greater exposure of screen elements to make the computer usable by people with cognitive, hearing, physical, or visual disabilities." -
14 EFI
"A type of interface between a computer, firmware, hardware, and the operating system. EFI defines a new partition style called GUID partition table (GPT). EFI serves the same purpose as the basic input/output system (BIOS) found in most x86-based computers." -
15 BIOS enumerator
"In a non-ACPI Plug and Play system, the BIOS enumerator identifies the hardware devices on the motherboard of the computer. The BIOS supports a programming interface that allows all Plug and Play computers to be queried in a common manner." -
16 offload target
"The combination of miniport driver, intermediate driver(s) and hardware Network Interface Card (NIC) that is presented to the host stack as a single miniport device capable of offloading some functions from the host stack." -
17 Windows Biometric Service
"A privileged Windows service that interfaces with biometric hardware through the Windows Biometric Driver Interface, and manages the capture, matching and storage of biometric data, and exposes this capability to applications through the Windows Biometric API." -
18 minidriver
"A relatively small, simple driver or file that contains additional instructions needed by a specific hardware device to interface with the universal driver for a class of devices."
