1 virtual address
"In a virtual memory system, the address the application uses to reference memory. The kernel and the memory management unit (MMU) translate this address into a physical address before the memory is actually read or written." -
2 configuration
"In reference to a single microcomputer, the sum of a system's internal and external components, including memory, disk drives, keyboard, video, and generally less critical add-on hardware, such as a mouse, modem, or printer. Software (the operating system and various device drivers), the user's choices established through configuration files such as the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files on IBM PCs and compatibles, and sometimes hardware (switches and jumpers) are needed to ""configure the configuration"" to work correctly. Although system configuration can be changed, as by adding more memory or disk capacity, the basic structure of the system--its architecture--remains the same." -
3 volume bitmap
A stored reference (which may exist both on hierarchical directory volumes and in memory) to every piece of data that is in the allocation blocks and indicates whether the block is allocated or free for use. -
4 base address
The part of a two-part memory address that remains constant and provides a reference point from which the location of a byte of data can be calculated. -
5 index buffer
An area of memory which holds a table that contains reference information pointing to vertices in your vertex buffer. -
6 dereference
To programmatically access a memory address assigned to a pointer variable or reference variable.
