Conventions Used in This Document
Terminology. Unless specified otherwise, the use of "system" refers to
either a DEC 10000 AXP or VAX 10000 system. The DEC 10000 AXP sys-
tems use the Alpha AXP architecture. References in text use DEC 10000
to refer to DEC 10000 AXP systems.
When a discussion applies to only one system, an icon is used to highlight
that system. Otherwise, the discussion applies to both systems. Thus, the
abstract for a module that applies only to DEC 10000 systems would look
like this:
Book titles. In text, if a book is cited without a product name, that book is
part of the hardware documentation. It is listed in Table 1 along with its
order number.
Icons. Icons such as those shown below are used in illustrations for desig-
nating part placement in the system described. A shaded area in the icon
shows the location of the component or part being discussed.
