RBIL61 - SDA
INT 1A - PCI
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.
v2.0c+ - READ CONFIGURATION
DWORD
Doubleword; four bytes. Commonly used to hold a 32-bit segment:offset or selector:offset address.

INT 21 - DOS 3.0+ internal - GET ADDRESS OF DOS SWAPPABLE DATA AREA
{
undocumented
Information about a product which is not publicly available from the manufacturer, and must be determined by reverse-engineering (disassembly, trial-and-error, etc.). Undocumented information tends to change -- often dramatically -- between successive revisions of a product, since the manufacturer has no obligation to maintain compatibility in behavior which is not explicitly stated.

INT 60 - PC-IPC
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.
