(gcide) | Turpentine \Tur"pen*tine\ (t[^u]r"p[e^]n*t[imac]n), n. [F.
t['e]r['e]benthine, OF. also turbentine; cf. Pr. terebentina,
terbentina, It. terebentina, trementina; fr. L. terebinthinus
of the turpentine tree, from terebinthus the turpentine tree.
Gr. tere`binqos, te`rminqos. See Terebinth.]
A semifluid or fluid oleoresin, primarily the exudation of
the terebinth, or turpentine, tree (Pistacia Terebinthus),
a native of the Mediterranean region. It is also obtained
from many coniferous trees, especially species of pine,
larch, and fir.
[1913 Webster]
Note: There are many varieties of turpentine. Chian
turpentine is produced in small quantities by the
turpentine tree (Pistacia Terebinthus). Venice,
Swiss, or larch turpentine, is obtained from {Larix
Europaea}. It is a clear, colorless balsam, having a
tendency to solidify. Canada turpentine, or Canada
balsam, is the purest of all the pine turpentines (see
under Balsam). The Carpathian and Hungarian varieties
are derived from Pinus Cembra and Pinus Mugho.
Carolina turpentine, the most abundant kind, comes from
the long-leaved pine (Pinus palustris). Strasburg
turpentine is from the silver fir (Abies pectinata).
[1913 Webster]

16 bit
(foldoc) | 16 bit
Using words containing sixteen
bits. This adjective often refers to the number of bits
used internally by a computer's CPU. E.g. "The Intel 8086

address bus may be narrower. The term may also refer to the
size of an instruction in the computer's instruction set or
to any other item of data.

16-bit application
(foldoc) | 16-bit application
Software for MS-DOS or {Microsoft
Windows} which originally ran on the 16-bit Intel 8088 and
80286 microprocessors. These used a {segmented address
space} to extend the range of addresses from what is possible
with just a 16-bit address. Programs with more than 64
kilobytes of code or data therefore had to waste time
switching between segments. Furthermore, programming with
segments is more involved than programming in a {flat address
space}, giving rise to warts like memory models in C and
C++.

ibm 1620
(foldoc) | IBM 1620
A computer built by IBM and released in late
1959. The 1620 cost from around $85,000(?) up to hundreds of
thousands of dollars(?) according to the configuration. It
was billed as a "small scientific computer" to distinguish it
from the business-oriented IBM 1401. It was regarded as
inexpensive, and many schools started out with one.
It was either developed for the US Navy to teach computing, or
as a replacement for the very successful IBM 650 which did
quite well in the low end scientific market. Rumour has it
that the Navy called this computer the CADET - Can't Add,
Doesn't Even Try.
The ALU used lookup tables to add, subtract and multiply but
it could do address increments and the like without the
tables. You could change the number base by adjusting the
tables, which were input during the boot sequence from
Hollerith cards. The divide instruction required additional
hardware, as did floating point operations.
The basic machine had 20,000 decimal digits of {ferrite core
memory} arranged as a 100 by 100 array of 12-bit locations,
each holding two digits. Each digit was stored as four
numeric bits, one flag bit and one parity bit. The numeric
bits stored a decimal digit (values above nine were illegal).
Memory was logically divided into fields. On the high-order
digit of a field the flag bit indicated the end of the field.
On the low-order digit it indicated a negative number. A flag
bit on the low order of the address indicated {indirect
addressing} if you had that option installed. A few "illegal"
bit combinations were used to store things like record marks
and "numeric blanks".
On a subroutine call it stored the return address in the
five digits just before the entry point to the routine, so you
had to build your own stack to do recursion.
The enclosure was grey, and the core was about four or five
inches across. The core memory was kept cool inside a
temperature-controlled box. The machine took a few minutes to
warm up after power on before you could use it. If it got too
hot there was a thermal cut-out switch that would shut it
down.
Memory could be expanded up to 100,000 digits in a second
cabinet. The cheapest package used paper tape for I/O. You
could also get punched cards and later models could be
hooked up to a 1311 disk drive (a two-megabyte {washing
machine}), a 1627 plotter, and a 1443 line printer.
Because the 1620 was popular with colleges, IBM ran a clearing
house of software for a nominal cost such as Snobol,
COBOL, chess games, etc.
The model II, released about three years later, could add and
subtract without tables. The clock period decreased from 20
to 10 microseconds, instruction fetch sped up by a few cycles
and it added index registers of some sort. Some of the
model I's options were standard on the model II, like
indirect addressing and the console teletype changed
from a model C to a Selectric. Later still, IBM marketed
the IBM 1710.
A favorite use was to tune a FM radio to pick up the
"interference" from the lights on the console. With the right
delay loops you could generate musical notes. Hackers wrote
interpreters that played music from notation like "C44".

1620 consoles were used as props to represent Colossus in
the film "The Forbin Project", though most of the machines had
been scrapped by the time the film was made.

iso 3166
(foldoc) | country code
ISO 3166
Originally, a two-letter abbreviation
for a particular country (or geographical region), generally
used as a top-level domain.
Originally country codes were just for countries; but country
codes have been allocated for many areas (mostly islands) that
aren't countries, such as Antarctica (aq), Christmas Island
(cx) and Saint Pierre et Miquelon (pm).
Country codes are defined in ISO 3166 and are used as the
top level domain for Internet hostnames in most countries
but hardly ever in the USA (code "us"). ISO 3166 defines
short and full english and french names, two- and three-letter
codes and a three-digit code for each country.
There are also language codes.

mcp-1600
(foldoc) | MCP-1600
A processor made by Western Digital, consisting of at least
four separate integrated circuits, including the control
circuitry unit, the ALU, two or four ROM chips with
microcode, and timing circuitry.
The ALU chip contained twenty-six 8-bit registers and an
8-bit ALU, while the control unit supervised the moving of
data, memory access, and other control functions. The ROM
allowed the chip to function as either an 8- or 16-bit chip,
with clever use of the 8-bit ALU. Further, microcode
allowed the addition of floating-point routines (40 + 8 bit
format), simplifying programming (and possibly producing a
floating-point coprocessor).
Two standard microcode ROMs were available. This
flexibility was one reason it was also used to implement the
DEC LSI-11 processor as well as the WD {Pascal
Microengine}.

X.216
X.226
The second highest layer (layer 6) in the OSI
seven layer model. Performs functions such as text
compression, code or format conversion to try to smooth out
differences between hosts. Allows incompatible processes in
the application layer to communicate via the {session
layer}.
