WMLScript is a subset of the JavaScript scripting language designed as part of the WAP standard to provide a convenient mechanism to access mobile phone's peripheral functions.

Capability of SNA subarea nodes to provide protocol support for attached peripheral nodes. Typically found in IBM 3745 devices.

1) A communication path. Multiple channels can be multiplexed over a single cable in certain environments.
2) In IBM, the specific path between large computers (such as mainframes) and attached peripheral devices.

If your system has hardware devices that are not on the Windows 2000 Hardware Compatibility List, you should contact the manufacturer of the device to determine whether they have new, updated Windows 2000 drivers for their device. Many peripheral makers have become very proactive in supplying updated drivers for their devices-often, posting their latest drivers and product compatibility information on their Internet Web sites, where they can be downloaded by customers. The second alternative is to try the device with Windows NT or Windows 9x drivers to see if it will work. The final option is to get a device that is listed on the Windows 2000 HCL.

Companies likely to adopt this technology include, but are not limited to, software developers, network vendors, silicon vendors, peripheral and camera manufacturers, mobile PC and handheld device manufacturers, consumer electronics manufacturers and more. bluetooth

In a packet-switched star topology, a router that is part of the backbone and that serves as the single pipe through which all traffic from peripheral networks must pass on its way to other peripheral networks.

direct memory access. The transfer of data from a peripheral device, such as a hard disk drive, into memory without that data passing through the microprocessor. DMA transfers data into memory at high speeds with no processor overhead.

boundary network node. In SNA terminology, a subarea node that provides boundary function support for adjacent peripheral nodes. This support includes sequencing, pacing, and address translation. Also called boundary node.

Dust buildup on the keyboard circuitry can cause its ICs to fail because of overheating.

Many newer peripheral devices can safely be unplugged and reattached to the system while power is applied; this is not so with the standard keyboard. Plugging the keyboard in to the system while power is applied can cause the operating system or even the system board to fail due to the power surge and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
