Industry:Technology
A system that uses a script-like dialogue instead of complete, free-form natural language. For each question asked, there are a limited number of valid responses. With this approach, accuracy rates may go up dramatically on less-expensive hardware.
Industry:Technology
Generic nomenclature for a storage peripheral that can respond directly to random requests for information; usually denotes a disk drive.
Industry:Technology
TV and broadcasting industries that deliver by satellite services directly to consumer households enabled by individual reception systems (antenna/dish and satellite Integrated Receiver-Decoder (IRD)/receiver). DBS satellite providers deliver a form of direct-to-home service. See also DBS and IRD.
Industry:Technology
Direct chip cooling uses liquid or phase-change heat-transfer mechanisms operating on, or thermally close to, the exposed rear surface of the silicon of the chip. This approach provides maximum power and heat dissipation at a minimum operating temperature. Under operating conditions, a processor can operate significantly faster than a processor cooled by other traditional and conventional means.

This is a channel through which hardware, software and peripherals are sold by the manufacturer directly to the end user: * Direct sales force — This is a channel through which products move directly from the manufacturer or vendor to the end user, usually by a professionally trained field sales force. * Direct fax/phone/Web — This is a channel through which manufacturers sell their own products directly to end users through the use of the telephone, Web, fax, fax back and mail, including e-mail and catalog. * Direct retail — These are storefront operations owned and managed by the vendor, typically a manufacturer of computer systems. Direct stores are more common in Europe and Japan than in other parts of the world. Sales through direct stores are not reported separately by Gartner’s worldwide services. They are grouped under direct sales force or one of the indirect channels.
Industry:Technology
Type of satellite used for consumer services, primarily the transmission of radio and TV programs. A direct broadcasting satellite is similar to a fixed-service satellite (FSS); however, it offers a higher power output, requiring smaller antennas to receive the signal. Typical DBS services offer digital programming, digital audio services and, increasingly, high-definition TV (HDTV).
Industry:Technology
