      Syn: Limit; bound; boundary; condition; stipulation; word;
               expression.
  
      Usage: {Term}, {Word}. These are more frequently interchanged
                  than almost any other vocables that occur of the
                  language. There is, however, a difference between them
                  which is worthy of being kept in mind. Word is
                  generic; it denotes an utterance which represents or
                  expresses our thoughts and feelings. Term originally
                  denoted one of the two essential members of a
                  proposition in logic, and hence signifies a word of
                  specific meaning, and applicable to a definite class
                  of objects. Thus, we may speak of a scientific or a
                  technical term, and of stating things in distinct
                  terms. Thus we say, [bd]the term minister literally
                  denotes servant;[b8] [bd]an exact definition of terms
                  is essential to clearness of thought;[b8] [bd]no term
                  of reproach can sufficiently express my
                  indignation;[b8] [bd]every art has its peculiar and
                  distinctive terms,[b8] etc. So also we say, [bd]purity
                  of style depends on the choice of words, and precision
                  of style on a clear understanding of the terms
                  used.[b8] Term is chiefly applied to verbs, nouns, and
                  adjectives, these being capable of standing as terms
                  in a logical proposition; while prepositions and
                  conjunctions, which can never be so employed, are
                  rarely spoken of as terms, but simply as words.

      Usage: {Sense}, {Understanding}, {Reason}. Some philosophers
                  have given a technical signification to these terms,
                  which may here be stated. Sense is the mind's acting
                  in the direct cognition either of material objects or
                  of its own mental states. In the first case it is
                  called the outer, in the second the inner, sense.
                  Understanding is the logical faculty, i. e., the power
                  of apprehending under general conceptions, or the
                  power of classifying, arranging, and making
                  deductions. Reason is the power of apprehending those
                  first or fundamental truths or principles which are
                  the conditions of all real and scientific knowledge,
                  and which control the mind in all its processes of
                  investigation and deduction. These distinctions are
                  given, not as established, but simply because they
                  often occur in writers of the present day.

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   INTERCAL /in't*r-kal/ n.   [said by the authors to stand for
   `Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym'] A computer
   language designed by Don Woods and James Lyons in 1972.   INTERCAL is
   purposely different from all other computer languages in all ways
   but one; it is purely a written language, being totally unspeakable.
   An excerpt from the INTERCAL Reference Manual will make the style
   of the language clear:
  
      It is a well-known and oft-demonstrated fact that a person whose
      work is incomprehensible is held in high esteem.   For example, if
      one were to state that the simplest way to store a value of 65536
      in a 32-bit INTERCAL variable is:
  
            DO :1 <- #0$#256
  
      any sensible programmer would say that that was absurd.   Since this
      is indeed the simplest method, the programmer would be made to look
      foolish in front of his boss, who would of course have happened to
      turn up, as bosses are wont to do.   The effect would be no less
      devastating for the programmer having been correct.
  
      INTERCAL has many other peculiar features designed to make it even
   more unspeakable.   The Woods-Lyons implementation was actually used
   by many (well, at least several) people at Princeton.   The language
   has been recently reimplemented as C-INTERCAL and is consequently
   enjoying an unprecedented level of unpopularity; there is even an
   alt.lang.intercal newsgroup devoted to the study and ...
   appreciation of the language on Usenet.
  
      Inevitably, INTERCAL has a home page on the Web:
   `http://www.tuxedo.org/intercal/'. An extended version, implemented
   in (what else?) {Perl} and adding object-oriented features, is
   available at `http://dd-sh.assurdo.com/INTERCAL'.   See also
   {Befunge}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   interesting adj.   In hacker parlance, this word has strong
   connotations of `annoying', or `difficult', or both.   Hackers relish
   a challenge, and enjoy wringing all the irony possible out of the
   ancient Chinese curse "May you live in interesting times".   Oppose
   {trivial}, {uninteresting}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   International Style
  
      Although the Jargon File remains primarily a lexicon of hacker usage
   in American English, we have made some effort to get input from abroad.
   Though the hacker-speak of other languages often uses translations of
   jargon from English (often as transmitted to them by earlier Jargon
   File versions!), the local variations are interesting, and knowledge of
   them may be of some use to travelling hackers.
  
      There are some references herein to `Commonwealth hackish'.   These
   are intended to describe some variations in hacker usage as reported in
   the English spoken in Great Britain and the Commonwealth (Canada,
   Australia, India, etc. -- though Canada is heavily influenced by
   American usage).   There is also an entry on {{Commonwealth Hackish}}
   reporting some general phonetic and vocabulary differences from U.S.
   hackish.
  
      Hackers in Western Europe and (especially) Scandinavia report that
   they often use a mixture of English and their native languages for
   technical conversation.   Occasionally they develop idioms in their
   English usage that are influenced by their native-language styles.
   Some of these are reported here.
  
      On the other hand, English often gives rise to grammatical and
   vocabulary mutations in the native language.   For example, Italian
   hackers often use the nonexistent verbs `scrollare' (to scroll) and
   `deletare' (to delete) rather than native Italian `scorrere' and
   `cancellare'.   Similarly, the English verb `to hack' has been seen
   conjugated in Swedish.   And Spanish-speaking hackers use `linkar' (to
   link), `debugear' (to debug), and `lockear' (to lock).
  
      European hackers report that this happens partly because the English
   terms make finer distinctions than are available in their native
   vocabularies, and partly because deliberate language-crossing makes for
   amusing wordplay.
  
      A few notes on hackish usages in Russian have been added where they
   are parallel with English idioms and thus comprehensible to
   English-speakers.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Internet n.   The mother of all networks.   First incarnated
   beginning in 1969 as the ARPANET, a U.S. Department of Defense
   research testbed.   Though it has been widely believed that the goal
   was to develop a network architecture for military
   command-and-control that could survive disruptions up to and
   including nuclear war, this is a myth; in fact, ARPANET was
   conceived from the start as a way to get most economical use out of
   then-scarce large-computer resources.
  
      As originally imagined, ARPANET's major use would have been to
   support what is now called remote login and more sophisticated forms
   of distributed computing, but the infant technology of electronic
   mail quickly grew to dominate actual usage.   Universities, research
   labs and defense contractors early discovered the Internet's
   potential as a medium of communication between _humans_ and linked
   up in steadily increasing numbers, connecting together a quirky mix
   of academics, techies, hippies, SF fans, hackers, and anarchists.
   The roots of this lexicon lie in those early years.
  
      Over the next quarter-century the Internet evolved in many ways.
   The typical machine/OS combination moved from {DEC} {PDP-10}s and
   {PDP-20}s, running {TOPS-10} and {TOPS-20}, to PDP-11s and VAXes and
   Suns running {Unix}, and in the 1990s to Unix on Intel
   microcomputers.   The Internet's protocols grew more capable, most
   notably in the move from NCP/IP to {TCP/IP} in 1982 and the
   implementation of Domain Name Service in 1983.   It was around this
   time that people began referring to the collection of interconnected
   networks with ARPANET at its core as "the Internet".
  
      The ARPANET had a fairly strict set of participation guidelines -
   connected institutions had to be involved with a DOD-related
   research project.   By the mid-80s, many of the organizations
   clamoring to join didn't fit this profile.   In 1986, the National
   Science Foundation built NSFnet to open up access to its five
   regional supercomputing centers; NSFnet became the backbone of the
   Internet, replacing the original ARPANET pipes (which were formally
   shut down in 1990).   Between 1990 and late 1994 the pieces of NSFnet
   were sold to major telecommunications companies until the Internet
   backbone had gone completely commercial.
  
      That year, 1994, was also the year the mainstream culture
   discovered the Internet.   Once again, the {killer app} was not the
   anticipated one - rather, what caught the public imagination was the
   hypertext and multimedia features of the World Wide Web.
   Subsequently the Internet has seen off its only serious challenger
   (the OSI protocol stack favored by European telecom monopolies) and
   is in the process of absorbing into itself many of the proprietary
   networks built during the second wave of wide-area networking after
   1980.   It is now (1996) a commonplace even in mainstream media to
   predict that a globally-extended Internet will become the key
   unifying communications technology of the next century. See also
   {the network} and {Internet address}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Internet address n.   1. [techspeak] An absolute network
   address of the form foo@bar.baz, where foo is a user name, bar is a
   {sitename}, and baz is a `domain' name, possibly including periods
   itself.   Contrast with {bang path}; see also {the network} and
   {network address}.   All Internet machines and most UUCP sites can
   now resolve these addresses, thanks to a large amount of
   behind-the-scenes magic and {PD} software written since 1980 or so.
   See also {bang path}, {domainist}.   2. More loosely, any network
   address reachable through Internet; this includes {bang path}
   addresses and some internal corporate and government networks.
  
      Reading Internet addresses is something of an art.   Here are the
   four most important top-level functional Internet domains followed
   by a selection of geographical domains:
  
   com
            commercial organizations
  
   edu
            educational institutions
  
   gov
            U.S. government civilian sites
  
   mil
            U.S. military sites
  
      Note that most of the sites in the com and edu domains are in the
   U.S. or Canada.
  
   us
            sites in the U.S. outside the functional domains
  
   su
            sites in the ex-Soviet Union (see {kremvax}).
  
   uk
            sites in the United Kingdom
  
      Within the us domain, there are subdomains for the fifty states,
   each generally with a name identical to the state's postal
   abbreviation.   Within the uk domain, there is an ac subdomain for
   academic sites and a co domain for commercial ones.   Other top-level
   domains may be divided up in similar ways.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Internet Death Penalty   [Usenet] (often abbreviated IDP) The
   ultimate sanction against {spam}-emitting sites - complete shunning
   at the router level of all mail and packets, as well as Usenet
   messages, from the offending domain(s). Compare {Usenet Death
   Penalty}, with which it is sometimes confused.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Internet Exploder   [very common] Pejorative hackerism for
   Microsoft's "Internet Explorer" web browser (also "Internet
   Exploiter"). Compare {HP-SUX}, {AIDX}, {buglix}, {Macintrash},
   {Telerat}, {ScumOS}, {sun-stools}, {Slowlaris}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Internet Exploiter n.   Another common name-of-insult for
   Internet Explorer, Microsoft's overweight Web Browser; more hostile
   than {Internet Exploder}.   Reflects widespread hostility to
   Microsoft and a sense that it is seeking to hijack, monopolize, and
   corrupt the Internet.   Compare {Exploder} and the less pejorative
   {Netscrape}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   interrupt   1. [techspeak] n. On a computer, an event that
   interrupts normal processing and temporarily diverts flow-of-control
   through an "interrupt handler" routine.   See also {trap}.   2.
   interj. A request for attention from a hacker.   Often explicitly
   spoken.   "Interrupt -- have you seen Joe recently?"   See {priority
   interrupt}.   3. Under MS-DOS, nearly synonymous with `system call',
   because the OS and BIOS routines are both called using the INT
   instruction (see {{interrupt list}}) and because programmers so
   often have to bypass the OS (going directly to a BIOS interrupt) to
   get reasonable performance.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   interrupt list n.   [MS-DOS] The list of all known software
   interrupt calls (both documented and undocumented) for IBM PCs and
   compatibles, maintained and made available for free redistribution
   by Ralf Brown <>.   As of late 1992, it had grown to
   approximately two megabytes in length.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   interrupts locked out adj.   When someone is ignoring you.   In a
   restaurant, after several fruitless attempts to get the waitress's
   attention, a hacker might well observe "She must have interrupts
   locked out".   The synonym `interrupts disabled' is also common.
   Variations abound; "to have one's interrupt mask bit set" and
   "interrupts masked out" are also heard.   See also {spl}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   intro n.   [{demoscene}] Introductory {screen} of some
   production.   2. A short {demo}, usually showing just one or two
   {screen}s.   3. Small, usually 64k, 40k or 4k {demo}. Sizes are
   generally dictated by {compo} rules.   See also {dentro}, {demo}.
  
  

From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   Introduction
  
      This document is a collection of slang terms used by various
   subcultures of computer hackers.   Though some technical material is
   included for background and flavor, it is not a technical dictionary;
   what we describe here is the language hackers use among themselves for
   fun, social communication, and technical debate.
  
      The `hacker culture' is actually a loosely networked collection of
   subcultures that is nevertheless conscious of some important shared
   experiences, shared roots, and shared values.   It has its own myths,
   heroes, villains, folk epics, in-jokes, taboos, and dreams.   Because
   hackers as a group are particularly creative people who define
   themselves partly by rejection of `normal' values and working habits,
   it has unusually rich and conscious traditions for an intentional
   culture less than 40 years old.
  
      As usual with slang, the special vocabulary of hackers helps hold
   their culture together -- it helps hackers recognize each other's
   places in the community and expresses shared values and experiences.
   Also as usual, _not_ knowing the slang (or using it inappropriately)
   defines one as an outsider, a mundane, or (worst of all in hackish
   vocabulary) possibly even a {suit}.   All human cultures use slang in
   this threefold way -- as a tool of communication, and of inclusion, and
   of exclusion.
  
      Among hackers, though, slang has a subtler aspect, paralleled perhaps
   in the slang of jazz musicians and some kinds of fine artists but hard
   to detect in most technical or scientific cultures; parts of it are
   code for shared states of _consciousness_.   There is a whole range of
   altered states and problem-solving mental stances basic to high-level
   hacking which don't fit into conventional linguistic reality any better
   than a Coltrane solo or one of Maurits Escher's `trompe l'oeil'
   compositions (Escher is a favorite of hackers), and hacker slang
   encodes these subtleties in many unobvious ways.   As a simple example,
   take the distinction between a {kluge} and an {elegant} solution, and
   the differing connotations attached to each.   The distinction is not
   only of engineering significance; it reaches right back into the nature
   of the generative processes in program design and asserts something
   important about two different kinds of relationship between the hacker
   and the hack.   Hacker slang is unusually rich in implications of this
   kind, of overtones and undertones that illuminate the hackish psyche.
  
      But there is more.   Hackers, as a rule, love wordplay and are very
   conscious and inventive in their use of language.   These traits seem to
   be common in young children, but the conformity-enforcing machine we
   are pleased to call an educational system bludgeons them out of most of
   us before adolescence.   Thus, linguistic invention in most subcultures
   of the modern West is a halting and largely unconscious process.
   Hackers, by contrast, regard slang formation and use as a game to be
   played for conscious pleasure.   Their inventions thus display an almost
   unique combination of the neotenous enjoyment of language-play with the
   discrimination of educated and powerful intelligence.   Further, the
   electronic media which knit them together are fluid, `hot' connections,
   well adapted to both the dissemination of new slang and the ruthless
   culling of weak and superannuated specimens.   The results of this
   process give us perhaps a uniquely intense and accelerated view of
   linguistic evolution in action.
  
      Hacker slang also challenges some common linguistic and
   anthropological assumptions.   For example, it has recently become
   fashionable to speak of `low-context' versus `high-context'
   communication, and to classify cultures by the preferred context level
   of their languages and art forms.   It is usually claimed that
   low-context communication (characterized by precision, clarity, and
   completeness of self-contained utterances) is typical in cultures which
   value logic, objectivity, individualism, and competition; by contrast,
   high-context communication (elliptical, emotive, nuance-filled,
   multi-modal, heavily coded) is associated with cultures which value
   subjectivity, consensus, cooperation, and tradition.   What then are we
   to make of hackerdom, which is themed around extremely low-context
   interaction with computers and exhibits primarily "low-context" values,
   but cultivates an almost absurdly high-context slang style?
  
      The intensity and consciousness of hackish invention make a
   compilation of hacker slang a particularly effective window into the
   surrounding culture -- and, in fact, this one is the latest version of
   an evolving compilation called the `Jargon File', maintained by hackers
   themselves for over 15 years.   This one (like its ancestors) is
   primarily a lexicon, but also includes topic entries which collect
   background or sidelight information on hacker culture that would be
   awkward to try to subsume under individual slang definitions.
  
      Though the format is that of a reference volume, it is intended that
   the material be enjoyable to browse.   Even a complete outsider should
   find at least a chuckle on nearly every page, and much that is
   amusingly thought-provoking.   But it is also true that hackers use
   humorous wordplay to make strong, sometimes combative statements about
   what they feel.   Some of these entries reflect the views of opposing
   sides in disputes that have been genuinely passionate; this is
   deliberate.   We have not tried to moderate or pretty up these disputes;
   rather we have attempted to ensure that _everyone's_ sacred cows get
   gored, impartially.   Compromise is not particularly a hackish virtue,
   but the honest presentation of divergent viewpoints is.
  
      The reader with minimal computer background who finds some references
   incomprehensibly technical can safely ignore them.   We have not felt it
   either necessary or desirable to eliminate all such; they, too,
   contribute flavor, and one of this document's major intended audiences
   -- fledgling hackers already partway inside the culture -- will benefit
   from them.
  
      A selection of longer items of hacker folklore and humor is included
   in {Appendix A}. The `outside' reader's attention is particularly
   directed to the Portrait of J. Random Hacker in {Appendix B}.   Appendix
   C, the {Bibliography}, lists some non-technical works which have either
   influenced or described the hacker culture.
  
      Because hackerdom is an intentional culture (one each individual must
   choose by action to join), one should not be surprised that the line
   between description and influence can become more than a little
   blurred.   Earlier versions of the Jargon File have played a central
   role in spreading hacker language and the culture that goes with it to
   successively larger populations, and we hope and expect that this one
   will do likewise.
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   indirect address
  
      An {addressing mode} found in many processors'
      {instruction sets} where the instruction contains the address
      of a memory location which contains the address of the operand
      (the "{effective address}") or specifies a {register} which
      contains the effective address.   In the first case
      (indirection via memory), accessing the operand requires two
      memory accesses - one to fetch the effective address and
      another to read or write the actual operand.   Register
      indirect addressing requires only one memory access.
  
      An indirect address may be indicated in {assembly language} by
      an operand in parentheses, e.g. in {Motorola 68000} assembly
  
      MOV D0,(A0)
  
      writes the contents of register D0 to the location pointed to
      by the address in register A0.
  
      Indirect addressing is often combined with pre- or post-
      increment or decrement addressing, allowing the address of the
      operand to be increased or decreased by one (or some specified
      number) either before or after using it.

   indirection
  
      Manipulating data via its address.   Indirection
      is a powerful and general programming technique.   It can be
      used for example to process data stored in a sequence of
      consecutive memory locations by maintaining a {pointer} to the
      current item and incrementing it to point to the next item.
  
      Indirection is supported at the {machine language} level by
      {indirect addressing}.   Many processor and {operating system}
      architectures use {vectors} which are also an instance of
      indirection, being locations which hold the address of a
      routine to handle a particular event.   The event handler can
      be changed simply by pointing the vector at a new piece of
      code.
  
      {C} includes operators "&" which returns the address of a
      {variable} and its inverse "*" which returns the variable at a
      given address.

   interactive development environment
  
      (IDE, integrated development environment)
      A system for supporting the process of writing software.   Such
      a system may include a {syntax-directed editor}, graphical
      tools for program entry, and integrated support for compiling
      and running the program and relating compilation errors back
      to the {source}.
  
      Such systems are typically both interactive and integrated,
      hence the ambiguous acronym.   They are interactive in that the
      developer can view and alter the execution of the program at
      the level of statements and variables.   They are integrated in
      that, partly to support the above interaction, the source code
      editor and the execution environment are tightly coupled,
      e.g. allowing the developer to see which line of source code
      is about to be executed and the current values of any
      variables it refers to.
  
      Examples include {Visual C++} and {Visual Basic}.

   INTERCAL
  
      /in't*r-kal/ (Said by the authors to stand
      for "Compiler Language With No Pronounceable Acronym").
  
      Possibly the most elaborate and long-lived joke in the history
      of programming languages.   It was designed on 1972-05-26 by
      Don Woods and Jim Lyons at Princeton University.
  
      INTERCAL is purposely different from all other computer
      languages in all ways but one; it is purely a written
      language, being totally unspeakable.   The INTERCAL Reference
      Manual, describing features of horrifying uniqueness, became
      an underground classic.   An excerpt will make the style of the
      language clear:
  
      It is a well-known and oft-demonstrated fact that a person
      whose work is incomprehensible is held in high esteem.   For
      example, if one were to state that the simplest way to store a
      value of 65536 in a 32-bit INTERCAL variable is:
  
            DO :1 <- #0$#256
  
      any sensible programmer would say that that was absurd.   Since
      this is indeed the simplest method, the programmer would be
      made to look foolish in front of his boss, who would of course
      have happened to turn up, as bosses are wont to do.   The
      effect would be no less devastating for the programmer having
      been correct.
  
      INTERCAL has many other peculiar features designed to make it
      even more unspeakable.   The Woods-Lyons implementation was
      actually used by many (well, at least several) people at
      {Princeton}.
  
      Eric S. Raymond wrote C-INTERCAL in
      1990 as a break from editing _The_New_Hacker's_Dictionary_,
      adding to it the first implementation of {COME FROM} under its
      own name.   The compiler has since been maintained and extended
      by an international community of technomasochists and is
      consequently enjoying an unprecedented level of unpopularity.
  
      The version 0.9 distribution includes the compiler, extensive
      documentation and a program library.   C-INTERCAL is actually
      an INTERCAL-to-C source translator which then calls the local
      {C} compiler to generate a binary.   The code is thus quite
      portable.

   Interchange File Format
  
      (IFF, full name "EA IFF 1985") A generic file
      format published by {Electronic Arts} as an open standard.
      IFF is {chunk}-based and hierarchical so files can include
      other files.   It is easily extensible and an all round Good
      Idea.
  
      An IFF file starts with one of the following "group IDs":
      'FORM', 'LIST' or 'CAT '.   This is followed by an unsigned
      32-bit number of bytes in the remainder of the file.   Then
      comes an ID that indicates which type of IFF file this is.
      The main image type is {ILBM}, {audio} is either {AIFF} or
      {8SVX}, animations are {ANIM} etc.   An IFF file will probably
      have a {filename extension} related to this file type stored
      in the file.   The rest of the file is divided into {chunks}
      each of which also has a four-byte header and byte count.
  
      {Microsoft} {WAV} and {AVI} are all based around an almost
      identical scheme to IFF called {RIFF}.   The main difference is
      that, in RIFF files, numbers are little-endian as on {Intel}
      processors, whereas in IFF files they are big-endian, as on
      the {Motorola 68000} processors in the {Amiga} where IFF files
      were first used.

      2. Part of an effort by {Project DOE} at {SunSoft, Inc.}   to
      integrate distributed {object} technology into the {Solaris}
      {operating system}.   IDL provides the standard interface
      between objects, and is the base mechanism for object
      interaction.
  
      The {Object Management Group}'s {CORBA} 1.1 (Common Object
      Request Broker Architecture) specifies the interface between
      objects.   IDL (Interface Definition Language) is the base

      The SunSoft OMG IDL CFE (Compiler Front End) version 1.2
      provides a complete framework for building CORBA 1.1-compliant
      preprocessors for OMG IDL.   To use it you write a back-end.   A
      complete compiler of IDL would translate IDL into {client}
      side and {server} side routines for remote communication in
      the same manner as {Sun}'s current {RPCL} compiler.   The IDL
      compiler front end allows integration of new back ends which
      can translate IDL to various programming languages.
  
      Several companies including Sunsoft are building back ends to
      the CFE which translate IDL into target languages,
      e.g. {Pascal} or {C++}, in the context of planned
      CORBA-compliant products.   IDL requires C++ 2.1.

      1. A {video} display system which builds an {image}
      on the {VDU} in two phases, known as "fields", consisting of
      even and odd horizontal lines.
  
      The complete image (a "frame") is created by scanning an
      electron beam horizontally across the screen, starting at the
      top and moving down after each horizontal scan until the
      bottom of the screen is reached, at which point the scan
      starts again at the top.   On an interlaced display, even
      numbered {scan lines} are displayed in the first field and
      then odd numbered lines in the second field.
  
      For a given screen {resolution}, {refresh rate} (frames per

   internationalisation
  
      (i18n, globalisation, enabling, software
      enabling) The process and philosophy of making software
      portable to other {locales}.
  
      For successful {localisation}, products must be technically
      and culturally neutral.   Effective internationalisation
      reduces the time and resources required for localisation,
      improving time-to-market abroad and allowing {simultaneous
      shipment}.   In orther words, internationalisation abstracts
      out local details, localisation specifies those details for a
      particular locale.
  
      Technically this may include allowing {double-byte character
      sets} such as {unicode} or Japanese, local numbering, date and
      currency formats, and other local format conventions.
  
      It also includes the separation of {user interface} text
      e.g. in {dialog boxes} and {menus}.   All the text used by an
      application may be kept in a separate file or directory, so
      that it can be translated all at once.   User interfaces may
      require more screen space for text in other languages.
  
      The simplest form of internationalisation may be to make use
      of {operating system} calls that format time, date and
      currency values according to the operating system's
      configuration.
  
      The abbreviation i18n means "I - eighteen letters - N".

   Internet Adapter
  
      The Internet Adapter (TIA).   A program
      from {Cyberspace Development} which runs on a {Unix} shell
      account and acts as a {SLIP} {emulator}.   A TIA emulated SLIP
      account is not quite the same as a real SLIP account but TIA's
      SLIP emulation is completely standard in terms of working with
      {MacTCP}-based software on the {Macintosh} (or {WinSock} on a
      {Microsoft Windows} machine).
  
      You do not get your own {Internet Address} as you do with a
      real SLIP account, instead, TIA uses the IP number of the
      machine it runs on and "redirects" traffic back to you.   You
      cannot set up your machine as an {FTP} {server}, for instance,
      since there's no IP number for an {FTP} {client} elsewhere to
      connect to.
  
      TIA's performance is reportedly good, faster than normal SLIP
      in fact, and about as fast as {Compressed SLIP}.   Future
      releases will support {CSLIP} and even {PPP}.
  
      {Cyberspace Development} has ported TIA to several versions of

   Internet backbone
  
      High-speed networks that carry

      These {communications} {networks} are provided by companies
      such as {AT&T}, {GTE}, {IBM}, {MCI}, {Netcom}, {Sprint},
      {UUNET} and consist of high-speed links in the {T1}, {T3},
      {OC1} and {OC3} ranges.   The {backbones} carry {Internet}
      traffic around the world and meet at {Network Access Points}
      (NAPs).
  
      {Internet Service Providers} (ISPs) connect either directly to
      a backbone, or they connect to a larger ISP with a connection
      to a backbone.
  
      The {topology} of the "backbone" and its interconnections may
      once have resembled a spine with ribs connected along its
      length but is now almost certainly more like a fishing net
      wrapped around the world with many circular paths.

   Internet Protocol version 6
  
      (IPv6, IPng, IP next generation) The
      most viable candidate to replace the current {Internet
      Protocol}.   The primary purpose of IPv6 is to solve the
      problem of the shortage of {IP addresses}.
  
      The following features have been purposed: 16-byte addresses
      instead of the current four bytes; embedded {encryption} - a
      32-bit {Security Association ID} (SAID) plus a variable length
      initialisation vector in {packet} headers; user
      {authentication} (a 32-bit SAID plus variable length
      {authentication} data in headers); autoconfiguration
      (currently partly handled by {Dynamic Host Configuration
      Protocol}); support for {delay-sensitive traffic} - a 24 bit
      flow ID field in headers to denote voice or video, etc.
  
      One possible solution is based on the {TUBA} protocol (RFC
      1347, 1526, 1561) which is itself based on the {OSI}
      {Connectionless Network Protocol} (CNLP).   Another is {TP/IX}
      (RFC 1475) which changes {TCP} and {UDP} headers to give a
      64-bit {IP address}, a 32-bit {port} number, and a 64 bit
      sequence number.
  
      {RFC 1550} is a white paper on IPng.

   Internet Worm
  
      The November 1988 {worm} perpetrated by

      advantage of bugs in the {Sun} {Unix} {sendmail} program,
      {Vax} programs, and other security loopholes to distribute
      itself to over 6000 computers on the {Internet}.   The worm
      itself had a bug which made it create many copies of itself on
      machines it infected, which quickly used up all available
      processor time on those systems.
  
      Some call it "The Great Worm" in a play on Tolkien (compare

   interpolation
  
      A mathematical procedure which
      estimates values of a {function} at positions between listed
      or given values.   Interpolation works by fitting a "curve"
      (i.e. a function) to two or more given points and then
      applying this function to the required input.   Example uses
      are calculating {trigonometric functions} from tables and
      audio waveform sythesis.
  
      The simplest form of interpolation is where a function, f(x),
      is estimated by drawing a straight line ("linear
      interpolation") between the nearest given points on either
      side of the required input value:
  
      f(x) ~ f(x1) + (f(x2) - f(x1))(x-x1)/(x2 - x1)
  
      There are many variations using more than two points or higher
      degree {polynomial} functions.   The technique can also be
      extended to functions of more than one input.

      {interpreter}
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   interpreter
  
      A program which executes other programs.   This
      is in contrast to a {compiler} which does not execute its
      input program (the "{source code}") but translates it into
      executable "{machine code}" (also called "{object code}")
      which is output to a file for later execution.   It may be
      possible to execute the same source code either directly by an
      interpreter or by compiling it and then executing the {machine
      code} produced.
  
      It takes longer to run a program under an interpreter than to
      run the compiled code but it can take less time to interpret
      it than the total required to compile and run it.   This is
      especially important when prototyping and testing code when an
      edit-interpret-debug cycle can often be much shorter than an
      edit-compile-run-debug cycle.
  
      Interpreting code is slower than running the compiled code
      because the interpreter must analyse each statement in the
      program each time it is executed and then perform the desired
      action whereas the compiled code just performs the action.
      This run-time analysis is known as "interpretive overhead".
      Access to variables is also slower in an interpreter because
      the mapping of identifiers to storage locations must be done
      repeatedly at run time rather than at compile time.
  
      There are various compromises between the development speed
      when using an interpreter and the execution speed when using a
      compiler.   Some systems (e.g. some {Lisp}s) allow interpreted
      and compiled code to call each other and to share variables.
      This means that once a routine has been tested and debugged
      under the interpreter it can be compiled and thus benefit from
      faster execution while other routines are being developed.
      Many interpreters do not execute the source code as it stands
      but convert it into some more compact internal form.   For
      example, some {BASIC} interpreters replace {keywords} with
      single byte tokens which can be used to {index} into a {jump
      table}.   An interpreter might well use the same {lexical
      analyser} and {parser} as the compiler and then interpret the
      resulting {abstract syntax tree}.
  
      There is thus a spectrum of possibilities between interpreting
      and compiling, depending on the amount of analysis performed
      before the program is executed.   For example {Emacs Lisp} is
      compiled to "{byte-code}" which is a highly compressed and
      optimised representation of the Lisp source but is not machine
      code (and therefore not tied to any particular hardware).
      This "compiled" code is then executed (interpreted) by a {byte
      code interpreter} (itself written in {C}).   The compiled code
      in this case is {machine code} for a {virtual machine} which
      is implemented not in hardware but in the byte-code
      interpreter.
  
      See also {partial evaluation}.

   interrupt
  
      1. An {asynchronous} event that suspends normal
      processing and temporarily diverts the {flow of control}
      through an "{interrupt handler}" routine.
  
      Interrupts may be caused by both {hardware} (I/O, timer,
      machine check) and {software} (supervisor, {system call} or
      {trap} instruction).
  
      In general the computer responds to an interrupt by storing
      the information about the current state of the running
      program; storing information to identify the source of the
      interrupt; and invoking a first-level {interrupt handler}.
      This is usually a {kernel} level privileged process that can
      discover the precise cause of the interrupt (e.g. if several
      devices share one interrupt) and what must be done to keep
      operating system tables (such as the process table) updated.
      This first-level handler may then call another handler,
      e.g. one associated with the particular device which generated
      the interrupt.
  
      2. Under {MS-DOS}, nearly synonymous with "{system call}"
      because the {OS} and {BIOS} routines are both called using the
      INT instruction (see {interrupt list}) and because programmers
      so often have to bypass the operating system (going directly
      to a BIOS interrupt) to get reasonable performance.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   interrupt handler
  
      A routine which is executed when an {interrupt}
      occurs.   Interrupt handlers typically deal with low-level
      events in the hardware of a computer system such as a
      character arriving at a {serial port} or a tick of a
      {real-time clock}.   Special care is required when writing an
      interrupt handler to ensure that either the interrupt which
      triggered the handler's execution is masked out (inhibitted)
      until the handler exits, or the handler is {re-entrant} so
      that multiple concurrent invocations will not interfere with
      each other.
  
      If interrupts are masked then the handler must execute as
      quickly as possible so that important events are not missed.
      This is often arranged by splitting the processing associated
      with the event into "upper" and "lower" halves.   The lower
      part is the interrupt handler which masks out further
      interrupts as required, checks that the appropriate event has
      occurred (this may be necessary if several events share the
      same interrupt), services the interrupt, e.g. by reading a
      character from a {UART} and writing it to a {queue}, and
      re-enabling interrupts.
  
      The upper half executes as part of a user process.   It waits
      until the interrupt handler has run.   Normally the {operating
      system} is responsible for reactivating a process which is
      waiting for some low-level event.   It detects this by a shared
      {flag} or by inspecting a shared queue or by some other
      synchronisation mechanism.   It is important that the upper and
      lower halves do not interfere if an interrupt occurs during
      the execution of upper half code.   This is usually ensured by
      disabling interrupts during {critical sections} of code such
      as removing a character from a queue.

   Intersil 6100
  
      (IMS 6100) A single chip design of the {DEC}
      {PDP-8} {minicomputer}.   The old PDP-8 design was very
      strange, and if it hadn't been popular, an awkward {CPU} like
      the 6100 would never been designed.
  
      The 6100 was a 12-bit processor, which had three {registers}:
      the {PC}, AC (accumulator), and MQ.   All 2-operand
      instructions read AC and MQ and wrote back to AC.   It had a
      12-bit {address bus}, limiting {RAM} to only 4K.   Memory
      references were 7-bit, offset either from address 0, or from
      the PC page base address (PC AND 7600 oct).
  
      It had no {stack}.   Subroutines stored the {PC} in the first
      word of the subroutine code itself, so {recursion} required
      fancy programming.
  
      4K RAM was pretty much hopeless for general purpose use.   The
      6102 support chip (included in the 6120) added 3 address
      lines, expanding memory to 32K the same way that the PDP-8/E
      expanded the PDP-8.   Two registers, IFR and DFR, held the page
      for instructions and data respectively (IFR was always used
      until a data address was detected).   At the top of the 4K
      page, the PC wrapped back to 0, so the last instruction on a
      page had to load a new value into the IFR if execution was to
      continue.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Intercession of Christ
      Christ's priestly office consists of these two parts, (1) the
      offering up of himself as a sacrifice, and (2) making continual
      intercession for us.
     
         When on earth he made intercession for his people (Luke 23:34;
      John 17:20; Heb. 5:7); but now he exercises this function of his
      priesthood in heaven, where he is said to appear in the presence
      of God for us (Heb. 9:12,24).
     
         His advocacy with the Father for his people rests on the basis
      of his own all-perfect sacrifice. Thus he pleads for and obtains
      the fulfilment of all the promises of the everlasting covenant
      (1 John 2:1; John 17:24; Heb. 7:25). He can be "touched with the
      feeling of our infirmities," and is both a merciful and a
      faithful high priest (Heb. 2:17, 18; 4:15, 16). This
      intercession is an essential part of his mediatorial work.
      Through him we have "access" to the Father (John 14:6; Eph.
      2:18; 3:12). "The communion of his people with the Father will
      ever be sustained through him as mediatorial Priest" (Ps. 110:4;
      Rev. 7:17).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Intercession of the Spirit
      (Rom. 8:26, 27; John 14:26). "Christ is a royal Priest (Zech.
      6:13). From the same throne, as King, he dispenses his Spirit to
      all the objects of his care, while as Priest he intercedes for
      them. The Spirit acts for him, taking only of his things. They
      both act with one consent, Christ as principal, the Spirit as
      his agent. Christ intercedes for us, without us, as our advocate
      in heaven, according to the provisions of the everlasting
      covenant. The Holy Spirit works upon our minds and hearts,
      enlightening and quickening, and thus determining our desires
      'according to the will of God,' as our advocate within us. The
      work of the one is complementary to that of the other, and
      together they form a complete whole.", Hodge's Outlines of
      Theology.
