dynamic acceleration
A feature supported by some mice drivers that causes the mouse resolution to depend on how fast the mouse is moved. When you move the mouse fast, the cursor moves proportionally further (the resolution is low). This is useful for jumping across the screen. Without this feature, you might need to sweep the mouse several times to move the cursor from one side of the display screen to the other. When you move the mouse slowly, the resolution increases to enable you to pinpoint specific pixels.
Dynamic resolution is also called ballistic tracking, automatic acceleration, variable acceleration, and dynamic acceleration.

Dynamic aspect-oriented programming, or dynamic AOP, using wrapper technologies, offers a way of allowing components to be individually customized and extended. Dynamic aspect-oriented programming is relatively straightforward in a trusted environment, where (with the exception of bugs) aspects can be assumed to be safe. In an untrusted public computing environment, new aspects cannot be assumed […]

Supported by Windows 2000, dynamic disk is a physical disk initialized for dynamic storage. It holds simple volumes, spanned volumes, mirrored volumes, striped volumes, and RAID-5 volumes. With a dynamic disk you can perform disk and volume management without having to restart the operating system. Upgrading a basic disk to dynamic storage will render the […]

(dī-nam´ik funk´sh&n lōd´ing) (n.) Also known as lazy loading, the capability to specify which components of a program are called into memory and which components are not called into memory by default when a program is first launched. Dynamic function loading is a method of speeding up the initial load time of a program. Because […]
- dynamic shared object
A dynamic shared object (DSO) is an object file that is intended to be used simultaneously (or shared by) multiple applications while they’re executing. A DSO can be used in place of archive libraries and will minimize overall memory usage because code is shared. Two executables that use the same DSO and that run simultaneously […]
