The number of slots determines future expansion. See PC data buses. (hardware) expansion slot - A connector in a computer into which an expansion card can be plugged. , a high-resolution display, and various connectivity and storage options. Hardware engineers can rapidly plan and validate To prove something to be sound or logical. Also to certify conformance to a standard. Contrast with "verify," which means to prove something to be correct. For example, data entry validity checking determines whether the data make sense (numbers fall within a range, numeric data mobile designs while software engineers develop applications in an environment close to production hardware. OEMs using the DevkitIDP to develop smartphones, data collection tablets, PDAs, medical devices and more can enjoy a significant time-to-market advantage. "BSQUARE is committed to supporting Intel's next-generation processor (codenamed Monahans) with its DevkitIDP products," said Pawan Gupta, Vice-President of Products and Marketing, BSQUARE.
