Word Definition
Loopback Plug
Loopback plug, also referred to as a loopback adapter, is a connection device that is plugged into a computer's port in order to perform a loopback test. Loopback plugs have been used for asynchronous and synchronous testing, as well as 10/100BaseT.
LPX: Low Profile eXtension
Low Profile eXtension (LPX) is a motherboard form factor used for low-profile computer cases. LPX boards use a riser card arrangement for expansion cards, which means that installed expansion cards are parallel to the motherboard instead of perpendicular to it. The use of riser cards allows for smaller cases, but typically only two or three expansion slots. LPX motherboards, although generally inexpensive, are usually not easy to expand or upgrade. This form factor has largely been replaced by more recent form factors such as NLX and ATX.
LTO: Linear Tape-Open
Linear Tape-Open (or LTO) is a computer storage magnetic tape format developed as an open alternative to the proprietary Digital Linear Tape (DLT). The format was developed and initiated by Certance, Hewlett-Packard, and IBM. An implementation of the LTO tape format goes by the name, "Ultrium".
LUN: Logical Unit Number
Logical Unit Number (LUN) is a unique identifier used on a SCSI bus to distinguish between devices that share the same bus. Each LUN is a unique number that identifies a specific logical unit, which may be an end user, a file, or an application program. SCSI is a parallel interface that allows up to 16 devices to be connected along a single cable.
LADSPA: Linux Audio Developers Simple Plugin API
Linux Audio Developers Simple Plugin API(LADSPA) is a standard interface under Lesser General Public License for handling filters, effects and the like in Linux-based operating systems. It is used in many free audio software projects.
LAMIP: Linux Audio Multiple Interface Player
Linux Audio Multiple Interface Player(LAMIP) is a free audio player. Its goal is to provide an interface which is completely driven by plugins. LAMIP was designed from the ground up to be completely modular, that one can easily create input plugins for their favorite filetypes or streams, and output plugins for their favorite sound engine or for netcasting. LAMIP is also modular when it comes to front-ends, that LAMIP control plugins can be made available under GTK, Qt, or any other toolkit.
LAMP: Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl/PHP/Python
The LAMP (or L.A.M.P.), an acronym of Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl (or PHP or Python), refers to a set of free software programs commonly used together to run dynamic Web sites or servers. LAMP software collection defines the open source Web platform, including web server infrastructure, a programming paradigm of developing software, database system and a software distribution package.
LAN Server
LAN Server is an IBM Network Operating System (NOS). The IBM LAN Server started as a close cousin of Microsoft LAN Manager and first shipped in early 1988. It was originally designed to run on top of Operating System/2 Extended Edition. The network client was called IBM LAN Requester and was included with OS/2 EE 1.1 by default. LAN Server basically refers to the IBM OS/2 LAN Server product. There were also LAN Server products for other operating systems, notably AIX (now called Fast Connect) and OS/400.
Lattice C
Lattice C, also called Lattice Corporation, was the first C compiler for the IBM PC, in 1982. It was ported to many other platforms, such as mainframes (MVS), minicomputers (VMS), workstations (UNIX), OS/2, the Commodore Amiga and the Sinclair QL.
Lazy Evaluation
Lazy evaluation is a computation optimization technique that attempts to delay computation of expressions until the results of the computation are known to be needed. It has two related, yet different, meanings that could be described as delayed evaluation and minimal evaluation. The benefits of lazy evaluation include: performance increases due to avoiding unnecessary calculations, avoiding error conditions in the evaluation of compound expressions, the ability to construct infinite data structures, and the ability to define control structures as regular functions rather than built-in primitives.
