Telecommunications - A network-provided service feature in which a user is provided with a virtual circuit. Note: Virtual circuit capability is not necessarily limited to packet mode transmission. For example, an analog signal may be converted to a digital signal and then be routed over the network via any available route.

Cancer - (...KOH-luh-NOS-koh-pee) A method under study to examine the colon by taking a series of x-rays (called a CT scan) and using a high-powered computer to reconstruct 2-D and 3-D pictures of the interior surfaces of the colon from these x-rays. The pictures can be saved, manipulated to better viewing angles, and reviewed after the procedure, even years later. Also called computed tomography colography.

Java - The name used to describe a user's graphical working area within a window manager. The name arose in the early days of graphical user interfaces when it was thought that these would lead to `paperless offices'. It was anticipated that the computer screen would become a user's desktop, in which virtual documents, as opposed to paper documents, would be created, read and manipulated in various ways.

Virtualization - A virtual disk is a file or set of files that appears as a physical disk drive to a guest operating system. These files can be on the host machine or on a remote file system. When you configure a virtual machine with a virtual disk, you can install a new operating system into the disk file without the need to repartition a physical disk or reboot the host.

Virtualization - creating a layer of abstraction between computing, storage, and networking hardware, and the operating systems running on it, resulting in a pool of homogeneous resources across the data center on which business services can be quickly and reliably provisioned and managed.
