lowercase title d The sensitivity index or d pronounced dee prime is a statistic used in signal detection theory . It provides the separation between the means of the signal and the noise distributions, in units of the standard deviation of the noise distribution. An estimate of d can be found from measurements of the hit rate and False alarm false alarm rate. It is calculated as d Z hit rate Z false alarm rate , where function Z p , p &isin 0,1 , is the inverse of the Normal distribution Cumulative distribution function cumulative Gaussian distribution . A higher d indicates that the signal can be more readily detected. See also Receiver Operating Characteristic R.O.C.

The D or Plus D was a floppy disk and computer printer printer Electrical connector interface for the Sinclair Research Sinclair ZX Spectrum home computer , developed as a successor to Miles Gordon Technology s earlier product, the DISCiPLE . It was designed to be smaller, cheaper, simpler and thus more reliable. It discarded a number of the less important features of the earlier product the computer network network and joystick ports, the inhibit button and the pass through connector and replaced its ancestor s plastic wedge shaped design which fit under the Spectrum with a simple flat metal slab which protruded from the rear of the computer. It provided only floppy disk and Centronics parallel interfaces, plus a non maskable interrupt button. The D s casing was simple folded steel, which was not only stronger than before but acted as a heatsink, improving reliability. Apart from the missing ports, though, it was software compatible with the larger device. The D s disk operating system DOS was named G DOS , and was compatible with the DISCiPLE s DOS, GDOS . SAM DOS for MGT s SAM Coup was backwards compatible with GDOS and G DOS. In later years a complete new system called UNI DOS was developed by SD Software for the DISCiPLE and D interfaces. ref http www.sinclair.hu speccyalista konyvtar kezikonyvek MGT PlusD Disciple UniDos Manual.pdf UNI DOS Manual ref The Complete D Disassembly by Rudy Biesma documents the G DOS system 2a version. ref http www.biehold.nl rudy index.htm Rudy Biesma s homepage ref The popularity of the DISCiPLE led to the formation of a user group and magazine ...
