ACPI
(ACPI) An open industry standard
developed by Intel, Microsoft, and Toshiba for
configuration and power management.
The key element of the standard is power management with two
important improvements. First, it puts the OS in control of
power management. In the currently existing APM model most
of the power management tasks are run by the BIOS, with
limited intervention from the OS. In ACPI, the BIOS is
responsible for the dirty details of communicating with
hardware equipment but the control is in the OS.
The other important feature is bringing power management
features now available only in portable computers to
desktop computers and servers. Extremely low consumption
states, i.e., in which only memory, or not even memory is
powered, but from which ordinary interrupts (real time clock,
keyboard, modem, etc.) can quickly wake the system, are today
available in portables only. The standard should make these
available for a wider range of systems.
For ACPI to work the operating system, the motherboard
chipset, and for some functions even the CPU has to be
designed for it. Microsoft is heavily driving a move toward
ACPI, both Windows NT 5.0 and Windows 98 will support it.
It remains to be seen how much hardware manufacturers will
embrace the technology and whether other operating system
vendors will support it.

application configuration access protocol (foldoc) | Application Configuration Access Protocol
ACAP
(ACAP) A protocol which enhances IMAP by
allowing the user to set up address books, user options, and
other data for universal access. Currently (Feb 1997) no
Internet proprietary products have implemented ACAP because
the Internet Engineering Task Force has not yet approved the
final specification. This was expected early in 1997.

configuration item (foldoc) | configuration item
Hardware or software, or an aggregate of both, which

configuration management (foldoc) | configuration management
A discipline applying technical and
administrative controls to identifying, documentating and
reporting on configuration items, their physical and functional
characteristics and changes to characteristics of those
configuration items.
Change management is one aspect of configuration management but
may also refer to the softer, human side of getting people to
adapt to changing processes and organisation.
Source code management or "code management" is configuration
management applied to code through the various stages of the
software life-cycle.

configuration programming (foldoc) | configuration programming
An approach that advocates the use of a separate
configuration language to specify the coarse-grain structure
of programs. Configuration programming is particularly
attractive for concurrent, parallel and distributed systems
that have inherently complex program structures.
Darwin is an example of a configuration language.

dynamic host configuration protocol (foldoc) | Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
DHCP
(DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to
dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a {local
area network}. The system administrator assigns a range of
IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has
its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from
the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease
concept with a controllable time period.
DHCP is defined in RFC 2131.
Microsoft introduced DHCP on their NT server with version
3.5 in late 1994.

ESCD
(ESCD) An area of memory, not exceeding 32
kilobytes in size, used by MS-DOS(?) as NVRAM for {PNP
BIOS} and PNP OS. It must be writeable at run time.
Intel's ICU also uses ESCD to store information for PNP
ISA cards and legacy ISA cards.
