Intelligent Graphics Corporation
VM/386 is a multitasking operating system or 'control program' that took early advantage of the capabilities of Intel's 386 processor. By utilizing Virtual 8086 mode, users were able to run their existing text-based and graphical DOS software in safely separate environments. The system offered a high degree of control, with the ability to set memory limits, CPU usage and scheduling parameters, device assignments, and interrupt priorities through a virtual machine manager menu. Unique CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files could be configured for each application, and even different DOS versions. In 1991 the vendor announced intentions to support DPMI 1.0 in VM/386. Overview VM/386 had initially been developed by Softguard Systems, a producer of copy-protection software, with plans to include features like non-DOS system support, but financial constraints forced its sale to Intelligent Graphics Corporation (IGC), which launched the product in 1987. It won a PC Magazine award for tec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

IAPMO Standards
IAPMO Standards are the plumbing and mechanical standards of the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials ( IAPMO). For more than thirty years, IAPMO’s standards-developing efforts have primarily focused on plumbing product standards. This concentration was primarily due to IAPMO members’ expertise from more than 50 years of writing and updating the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC). IAPMO is an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)-recognized Standards Development Organization (SDO). Recently, IAPMO’s efforts have broadened to include standards for mechanical products. Drawing on their years of experience, many IAPMO members have also contributed to the development of the Uniform Mechanical Code (UMC). Mechanical product standards cover heating, ventilation, cooling and refrigeration system products. IAPMO also publishes standards covering products used in the Recreational Vehicle and Manufactured Housing Industry called IAPMO Trailer Standards. S ...

IGC (file Format)
An IGC file (.igc extension) is a text file format used in flight recorders especially in gliders but also in paragliders in order to certify a performance (circuit performed as planned, altitude gain, duration of a flight, etc.). This format allows in particular the recording of the position (determined via the satellite navigation), the recording of the evolution of the altitude (measured by GPS or by barometric sensor) but also of additional information such as the possible ignition of an engine. Specification for this file format is published by the International Gliding Commission of the International Aeronautical Federation. These files can be created using specialized equipment called FAI recorder or FAI logger (Volkslogger, LXNAV Nano among others) or using certain anti-collision devices ( FLARM) or using a dedicated application that can run on smartphone (XCSoar, LK8000, SeeYou Mobile ...). IGC files can optionally be digitally signed using public key cryptography, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
