Hard Drive Recovery - FATA
Fibre Channel ATA (FATA) is a hybrid hard drive that combines Fibre Channel and ATA technologies. FATA drives were introduced by HP in 2005. FATA drives feature a Fibre Channel connector that enables the FATA drive to be used where conventional Fibre Channel drives are connected.
FATA drives are based on disk [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - BIOS
BIOS in computing stands for Basic Input/Output System. Also known as System BIOS, it is a de facto satandard defining a firmware interface. BIOS is the boot firmware and the first code to execute as soon as the PC is powered on.
BIOS first appeared in the CP/M operating system. Most versions [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Controller–Area Network
Controller–area network (CAN) is a vehicle bus standard designed to let microcontrollers and devices to communicate with each other within a vehicle without the presence of a host computer. Though it was designed specifically for automotive applications, it is now also used in other areas.
Development of the CAN-bus started in 1983 [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Unison Operating System
The Unison Operating System (RTOS) is a System on Chip (SoC), multi-core and DSP optimized open source RTOS that offers Linux compatible solution.
The current version of Unison is completely POSIX compliant, offering application portability and low cost hardware implementation options for embedded microcontrollers and distributed multi-core and multiprocessor systems like [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - GNU
GNU is a computer operating system prepared entirely of free software. Initiated by Richard Stallman, GNU is developed by the GNU Project, and programs released are called GNU packages or GNU programs.
The system’s basic components include the GNU Compiler Collection, the GNU Binary Utilities, the bash shell, the GNU C library, [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Digital Signal Processing
Digital signal processing (DSP) is the representation of the signals by a sequence of numbers or symbols and the processing of these signals. Digital signal processing and analog signal processing are sub-segments of signal processing.
DSP includes subfields like audio and speech signal processing, sonar and radar signal processing, sensor array [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Ubiquitous Computing
Ubiquitous computing is a post-desktop model of human-computer interaction in which information processing is thoroughly integrated into everyday objects and activities.
Mark Weiser coined the phrase ubiquitous computing in 1988. This was during his tenure as Chief Technologist of the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
Users of ubiquitous computing engage many devices and [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Computer-on-module
Computer-on-module (COM) is a type of single-board computer, a subtype of an embedded computer system.
It is also known as System on Module (SOM), an extension of the concept of System on Chip (SoC), and lying between a full-up computer and a microcontroller in nature.
The terms Computer-on-Module and COM were coined by Venture [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Firmware
Firmware is a term used to denote the fixed the small programs that internally control various electronic devices.
The term firmware was coined by Ascher Opler in a Datamation article in 1967. It meant the microcode contents of a writable control store (a specialized small area of RAM memory), which defined and [...]
Hard Drive Recovery - Web Server
The term Web server means a computer program that is responsible for accepting HTTP requests from clients (user agents such as Web browsers), and serving them HTTP responses along with optional data contents, which are Web pages such as HTML documents and linked objects.
In 1989 Tim Berners-Lee proposed to European Organization [...]
