VESA
(Video Electronics Standards Association) An industry group which sets both hardware and software standards and recommendations. The term VESA is also used to denote compliance with the VESA SuperVGA BIOS Extensions, a standard set of video BIOS functions for accessing video modes of higher resolution than those defined by
IBM
International Busiuness Machines
.
SuperVGA
BIOS
(Basic Input/Output System) A set of standardized calls giving low-level access to the hardware. The BIOS is the lowest software layer above the actual hardware and serves to insulate programs (and operating systems) which use it from the details of accessing the hardware directly.
- GET
VBE
(VESA BIOS Extensions) The common software interface for video cards providing support for high resolution and bit depth.

DAC
(Digital-to-Analog Converter) A hardware device (in its simplest form, nothing more than a set of interconnected resistors) which converts a digital number into an analog signal whose voltage is proportional to the value of the digital number.
VGA
Video Graphics Array
and later color video boards use DACs to convert color values into the analog signals sent to the display; sound boards normally use DACs as well.

3270 Workstation Program
API
(Application Program[ming] Interface) The defined set of calls which a program may make to interact with or request services of the operating system or environment under which it is running. Because the inputs and outputs of the calls are well-defined, a program using the API can continue using the identical calls even if the internal organization of the program providing the API changes.
