   Sugar \Sug"ar\, n. [OE. sugre, F. sucre (cf. It. zucchero, Sp.
      az[a3]car), fr. Ar. sukkar, assukkar, fr. Skr. [87]arkar[be]
      sugar, gravel; cf. Per. shakar. Cf. {Saccharine}, {Sucrose}.]
      1. A sweet white (or brownish yellow) crystalline substance,
            of a sandy or granular consistency, obtained by
            crystallizing the evaporated juice of certain plants, as
            the sugar cane, sorghum, beet root, sugar maple, etc. It
            is used for seasoning and preserving many kinds of food
            and drink. Ordinary sugar is essentially sucrose. See the
            Note below.
  
      Note: The term sugar includes several commercial grades, as
               the white or refined, granulated, loaf or lump, and the
               raw brown or muscovado. In a more general sense, it
               includes several distinct chemical compounds, as the
               glucoses, or grape sugars (including glucose proper,
               dextrose, and levulose), and the sucroses, or true
               sugars (as cane sugar). All sugars are carbohydrates.
               See {Carbohydrate}. The glucoses, or grape sugars, are
               ketone alcohols of the formula {C6H12O6}, and they turn
               the plane of polarization to the right or the left.
               They are produced from the amyloses and sucroses, as by
               the action of heat and acids of ferments, and are
               themselves decomposed by fermentation into alcohol and
               carbon dioxide. The only sugar (called acrose) as yet
               produced artificially belongs to this class. The
               sucroses, or cane sugars, are doubled glucose
               anhydrides of the formula {C12H22O11}. They are usually
               not fermentable as such (cf. {Sucrose}), and they act
               on polarized light.
  
      2. By extension, anything resembling sugar in taste or
            appearance; as, sugar of lead (lead acetate), a poisonous
            white crystalline substance having a sweet taste.
  
      3. Compliment or flattery used to disguise or render

      {Pine sugar}. See {Pinite}.

   Sugar \Sug"ar\, n. [OE. sugre, F. sucre (cf. It. zucchero, Sp.
      az[a3]car), fr. Ar. sukkar, assukkar, fr. Skr. [87]arkar[be]
      sugar, gravel; cf. Per. shakar. Cf. {Saccharine}, {Sucrose}.]
      1. A sweet white (or brownish yellow) crystalline substance,
            of a sandy or granular consistency, obtained by
            crystallizing the evaporated juice of certain plants, as
            the sugar cane, sorghum, beet root, sugar maple, etc. It
            is used for seasoning and preserving many kinds of food
            and drink. Ordinary sugar is essentially sucrose. See the
            Note below.
  
      Note: The term sugar includes several commercial grades, as
               the white or refined, granulated, loaf or lump, and the
               raw brown or muscovado. In a more general sense, it
               includes several distinct chemical compounds, as the
               glucoses, or grape sugars (including glucose proper,
               dextrose, and levulose), and the sucroses, or true
               sugars (as cane sugar). All sugars are carbohydrates.
               See {Carbohydrate}. The glucoses, or grape sugars, are
               ketone alcohols of the formula {C6H12O6}, and they turn
               the plane of polarization to the right or the left.
               They are produced from the amyloses and sucroses, as by
               the action of heat and acids of ferments, and are
               themselves decomposed by fermentation into alcohol and
               carbon dioxide. The only sugar (called acrose) as yet
               produced artificially belongs to this class. The
               sucroses, or cane sugars, are doubled glucose
               anhydrides of the formula {C12H22O11}. They are usually

   garbage collect vi.   (also `garbage collection', n.) See {GC}.
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   garbage collect
  
      {garbage collection}
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   garbage collection
  
      (GC) The process by which dynamically allocated
      storage is reclaimed during the execution of a program.   The
      term usually refers to automatic periodic storage reclamation
      by the garbage collector (part of the {run-time system}), as
      opposed to explicit code to free specific blocks of memory.
  
      Automatic garbage collection is usually triggered during
      memory allocation when the amount free memory falls below some
      threshold or after a certain number of allocations.   Normal
      execution is suspended and the garbage collector is run.
      There are many variations on this basic scheme.
  
      Languages like {Lisp} represent expressions as {graphs} built
      from {cells} which contain pointers and data.   These languages
      use automatic {dynamic storage allocation} to build
      expressions.   During the evaluation of an expression it is
      necessary to reclaim space which is used by subexpressions but
      which is no longer pointed to by anything.   This reclaimed
      memory is returned to the free memory pool for subsequent
      reallocation.
  
      Without garbage collection the program's memory requirements
      would increase monotonically throughout execution, possibly
      exceeding system limits on {virtual memory} size.
  
      The three main methods are {mark-sweep garbage collection},
      {reference counting} and {copying garbage collection}.
  
      See also the {AI koan} about garbage collection.

   Graphical User Interface
  
      (GUI) The use of pictures rather than just
      words to represent the input and output of a program.   A
      program with a GUI runs under some {windowing system}
      (e.g. The {X Window System}, {MacOS}, {Microsoft Windows},
      {Acorn} {RISC OS}, {NEXTSTEP}).   The program displays certain
      {icons}, {buttons}, {dialogue boxes}, etc. in its {windows} on
      the screen and the user controls it mainly by moving a
      {pointer} on the screen (typically controlled by a {mouse})
      and selecting certain objects by pressing buttons on the mouse
      while the pointer is pointing at them.   This contrasts with a
      {command line interface} where communication is by exchange of
      strings of text.
  
      Windowing systems started with the first {real}-time graphic
      display systems for computers, namely the {SAGE} Project
      [Dates?] and {Ivan Sutherland}'s {Sketchpad} (1963).   {Douglas
      Engelbart}'s {Augmentation of Human Intellect} project at
      {SRI} in the 1960s developed the {On-Line System}, which
      incorporated a mouse-driven cursor and multiple windows.
      Several people from Engelbart's project went to Xerox PARC in
      the early 1970s, most importantly his senior engineer, {Bill
      English}.   The Xerox PARC team established the {WIMP} concept,
      which appeared commercially in the {Xerox 8010} (Star) system
      in 1981.
  
      Beginning in 1980(?), led by {Jef Raskin}, the {Macintosh}
      team at {Apple Computer} (which included former members of the
      Xerox PARC group) continued to develop such ideas in the first
      commercially successful product to use a GUI, the Apple
      Macintosh, released in January 1984.   In 2001 Apple introduced
      {Mac OS X}.
  
      {Microsoft} modeled the first version of {Windows}, released
      in 1985, on Mac OS.   Windows was a GUI for {MS-DOS} that had
      been shipped with {IBM PC} and compatible computers since
      1981.   Apple sued Microsoft over infringement of the
      look-and-feel of the MacOS.   The court case ran for many
      years.

   Group-Sweeping Scheduling
  
      (GSS) A disk scheduling strategy in which
      requests are served in cycles, in a round-robin manner.   To
      reduce disk arm movements ("{seek}ing"), the set of streams is
      divided into groups that are served in fixed order.   Streams
      within a group are served according to "{SCAN}".
  
      If all clients are assigned to one group, GSS reduces to SCAN,
      and if all clients are assigned to separate groups, GSS
      effectively becomes round-robin scheduling.   The service order
      within one group is not fixed, and a stream may in fact be
      first in one cycle while last in the next.   This variation has
      to be masked by extra buffering but whereas SCAN requires
      buffer space for all streams, GSS can reuse the buffer for
      each group and effect a trade-off between {seek optimisation}
      and buffer requirements.
