AppendixGlossary
The Glossary lists the terminologies used in this User Guide. For terminologies other than these, look in Windows Help.
Backup
A way to save the current data to restore it later if necessary. 
A backup is a way to restore computer data when the data or 
computer is damaged.
Chargeable USB
This program enables supplying power to a specific USB port when 
the system is in power saving mode, hibernation mode or off.
Client
This refers to a computer that uses a shared network resource 
provided by a server.
DDR SDRAM  
(Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory)
DRAM is a memory type whose cells consist of a capacitor and 
transistor manufactured at a low price. SDRAM is a memory type 
whose performance has been improved by synchronizing the clock 
with the external CPU clock. DDR SDRAM is a memory type whose 
performance has been improved by doubling the operating speed 
of the SDRAM and is widely used nowadays. This computer uses 
DDR SDRAM.
Device Manager
An administrative tool used to manage computer devices. You can 
add or remove hardware or update a device driver using the Device 
Manager.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
This refers to automatically allocating IP addresses to the users on 
the network by the network administrators.
Direct X
An application interface developed to enable Windows application 
programs to access hardware devices at a very high speed. Since 
the operating speed of graphics, memory and sound cards must be 
very fast to provide high quality video and sound for games, Direct 
X enables faster control and interaction between applications and 
hardware devices. By using Direct X, the multimedia performance 
of Windows has been hugely improved.
Driver
Software that interacts between the hardware and the operating 
system. An operating system knows the hardware information 
and controls the hardware. In general, a driver is supplied with the 
corresponding hardware device.
D-sub (D-subminiature)
This is the cable connecting a general CRT monitor and the 
computer. Analog video is output through this cable.

DVD (Digital Versatile Disk)
DVD was developed to replace CD (compact disk). Although the 
shape and size of the disc are the same as that of a CD, the capacity 
of a DVD is at least 4.7GB while the capacity of a CD is 600MB. DVD 
video is digital unlike VHS (analog) video and supports MPEG2 
compression and digital audio. To play a DVD, a DVD drive is 
required.
Firewall
A security system used to protect an internal network or intranet 
from external networks through an authentication procedure.
HDMI
This is a digital video / audio interface specification that transmits 
video and audio signals over a single cable.
Hibernation Mode
A power mode that saves all data in memory to the hard disk and 
turns the CPU and hard disk off. When canceling Hibernation Mode, 
all application programs that were running are restored to their last 
state.
Icon
This refers to a small image that represents a file that users can use.
IEEE802.XX
This is a set fo specifications developed by the 802 committee of 
IEEE for the LAN connection method called XX.
LAN (Local Area Network)
A communications network connecting computers, printers and 
other devices within a local area such as within a building. A LAN 
enables all connected devices to interact with other devices on the 
network. The current LAN uses the Ethernet media access control 
method developed in the early 1980s. To connect to an Ethernet, a 
network card called a LAN card, Ethernet card or network interface 
card is required. To exchange data between computers, a protocol 
is required besides the hardware equipment. Windows uses TCP/IP 
as the default protocol.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
There are Passive Matrix and Active Matrix LCD types. This 
computer uses the Active Matrix type LCD called a TFT LCD. Since 
an LCD is implemented by transistors instead of a cathode-ray tube 
unlike a CRT, its size can be slim. And because it does not blink, it 
reduces eye strain.

Appendix
Network
A group of computers and devices, such as printers and scanners, 
connected by a communications link. A network can be either 
small or large and can be connected permanently through cables 
or temporarily through telephone lines or wireless links. The 
biggest network is the Internet, a worldwide network.
Network Administrator
A user who plans, configures and manages network operations. 
Sometimes, a network administrator is called a system 
administrator.
Notification Area
This refers to the right area of the Taskbar including program icons 
such as the volume control, the power options and the time.
Partition
This refers to the act or practice of dividing the storage space of 
a hard disk drive into separate data areas known as partitions. If a 
100GB hard disk drive is partitioned into 2 x 50GB partitions, the 
hard disk drive can be used as if there are 2 hard disk drives.
PCMCIA( Personal Computer Memory Card International 
Association) card
This is an extended card slot specification for mobile computers 
such as a notebook computer. Not only a memory,  device but also 
most peripherals such as hard disk drives, LAN cards, etc. can be 
connected to this card slot.
Protocol
A protocol is a set of rules used by computers to communicate with 
each other across a network. A protocol is a convention or standard 
that controls or enables the connection, communication, and 
data transfer between computing endpoints. It defines the data 
transmission procedures and the transmission medium for more 
efficient network functions.
Quick Launch
This refers to a toolbar that can be configured so that you can 
launch a program such as Internet Explorer or display the Windows 
Desktop with one click. You can add any icon to the quick launch 
area of the Taskbar and launch frequently used program by clicking 
that icon.
SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card
This is the extension of the SD card that supports over 2GB bytes.

Server
In general, a server refers to a computer that provides shared 
resources for network users.
Share
This refers to setting a resource of a computer such as a folder or 
printer so that other users can also use it.
Shared Folder
A folder that can be used by other users on the network.
Sleep Mode
A power mode that enables computers to save power consumption 
when they are not being used. When a computer is in Sleep Mode, 
the data on the computer memory is not saved to the hard disk. If 
the power is turned off, the data in memory will be lost.
System File
System Files refer to files that are read and used by the Windows 
operating system. In general, system files must not be deleted or 
moved.
TCP/ I P v4
This is a 4 byte (32 bit) address system separated into each byte  
(8 bits) by a dot and each byte is represented as a decimal number.
USB (Universal Serial Bus)
This refers to a serial interface standard developed to replace the 
conventional interface standards such as Serial and PS/2. 
The data transmission specifications are one of the interface 
standards used to connect a computer to peripheral devices.  
These specifications include USB 1.0, 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0. 
It is appropriate to support peripheral devices that require high 
data rates such as an AV device, secondary HDD or CD-RW.  
The higher the version (e.g. USB 3.0), the higher the data rate 
provided.
Windows Media Player
A multimedia program included with Windows. Using this 
program, you can play a media file, create an audio CD, listen to a 
radio broadcast, search and manage media files, and copy files to a 
portable device, etc.
