From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
demented adj.   Yet another term of disgust used to describe a    malfunctioning program.   The connotation in this case is that the    program works as designed, but the design is bad.   Said, for    example, of a program that generates large numbers of meaningless    error messages, implying that it is on the brink of imminent    collapse.   Compare {wonky}, {brain-damaged}, {bozotic}.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
demo mode n.   1. [Sun] The state of being {heads down} in order    to finish code in time for a {demo}, usually due yesterday.   2. A    mode in which video games sit by themselves running through a    portion of the game, also known as `attract mode'.   Some serious    {app}s have a demo mode they use as a screen saver, or may go    through a demo mode on startup (for example, the Microsoft Windows    opening screen -- which lets you impress your neighbors without    actually having to put up with {Microsloth Windows}).
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
demon dialer n.   A program which repeatedly calls the same    telephone number.   Demon dialing may be benign (as when a number of    communications programs contend for legitimate access to a {BBS}    line) or malign (that is, used as a prank or denial-of-service    attack).   This term dates from the {blue box} days of the 1970s and    early 1980s and is now semi-obsolescent among {phreaker}s; see {war    dialer} for its contemporary progeny.
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
demand driven          A demand driven architecture/language performs computations       when the result is required by some other computation.       E.g. {Imperial College}'s {ALICE} running {HOPE}.          See also {data flow}, {lazy evaluation}, {reduction}.          (1995-02-16)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
demand paged          {demand paging}
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
demand paging          A kind of {virtual memory} where a {page}       of memory will be {paged in} if an attempt is made to access       it and it is not already present in main memory.   This       normally involves a {memory management unit} which looks up       the {virtual address} in a {page map} to see if it is paged       in.   If it is not then the {operating system} will page it in,       update the page map and restart the failed access.   This       implies that the processor must be able to recover from and       restart a failed memory access or must be suspended while some       other mechanism is used to perform the paging.          Paging in a page may first require some other page to be moved       from main memory to disk ("paged out") to make room.   If this       page has not been modified since it was paged in, it can       simply be reused without writing it back to disk.   This is       determined from the "modified" or "dirty" flag bit in the       {page map}.   A {replacement algorithm} or policy is used to       select the page to be paged out, often this is the {least       recently used} (LRU) {algorithm}.          {Prepaging} is generally more efficient than demand paging.          (1998-04-24)

domain model          1. A definition of the functions, objects,       data, requirements, relationships and variations in a       particular {domain}.          2. A product of {domain analysis} which provides a       representation of the requirements of the domain.   The domain       model identifies and describes the structure of data, flow of       information, functions, constraints and controls within the       Domain that are included in software systems in the domain.       The Domain Model describes commonalities and variabilities       among requirements for software systems in the domain.          (1997-12-26)
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
domain theory          A branch of mathematics introduced by Dana Scott in       1970 as a mathematical theory of programming languages, and       for nearly a quarter of a century developed almost exclusively       in connection with {denotational semantics} in computer       science.          In {denotational semantics} of programming languages, the       meaning of a program is taken to be an element of a domain.   A       domain is a mathematical structure consisting of a set of       values (or "points") and an ordering relation, <= on those       values.   Domain theory is the study of such structures.          ("<=" is written in {LaTeX} as {\subseteq})          Different domains correspond to the different types of object       with which a program deals.   In a language containing       functions, we might have a domain X -> Y which is the set of       functions from domain X to domain Y with the ordering f <= g       iff for all x in X, f x <= g x.   In the {pure lambda-calculus}       all objects are functions or {application}s of functions to       other functions.   To represent the meaning of such programs,       we must solve the {recursive} equation over domains,          D = D -> D          which states that domain D is ({isomorphic} to) some {function       space} from D to itself.   I.e. it is a {fixed point} D = F(D)       for some operator F that takes a domain D to D -> D.   The       equivalent equation has no non-trivial solution in {set       theory}.          There are many definitions of domains, with different       properties and suitable for different purposes.   One commonly       used definition is that of Scott domains, often simply called       domains, which are {omega-algebraic}, {consistently complete}       {CPO}s.          There are domain-theoretic computational models in other       branches of mathematics including {dynamical systems},       {fractals}, {measure theory}, {integration theory},       {probability theory}, and {stochastic processes}.          See also {abstract interpretation}, {bottom}, {pointed       domain}.          (1999-12-09)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Diamond       (1.) A precious gem (Heb. yahalom', in allusion to its       hardness), otherwise unknown, the sixth, i.e., the third in the       second row, in the breastplate of the high priest, with the name       of Naphtali engraven on it (Ex. 28:18; 39:11; R.V. marg.,       "sardonyx.")                (2.) A precious stone (Heb. shamir', a sharp point) mentioned       in Jer. 17:1. From its hardness it was used for cutting and       perforating other minerals. It is rendered "adamant" (q.v.) in       Ezek. 3:9, Zech. 7:12. It is the hardest and most valuable of       precious stones.
