peripheral vascular disease definition of peripheral vascular disease in the Free Online Encyclopedia.

peripheral

Any input, output or storage device connected externally or internally to the computer's CPU, such as a monitor, keyboard, printer, disk, tape, graphics tablet, scanner, joy stick, paddle or mouse.

peripheral

Anatomy of, relating to, or situated near the surface of the body

peripheral [pə′rif·ə·rəl]

(anatomy)

Pertaining to or located at or near the surface of a body or an organ.

(computer science)

peripheral device

(science and technology)

Remote from the center; marginal; on the periphery.

(hardware)

peripheral - (Or "peripheral device", "device") Any part of a computer other than the CPU or working memory, i.e. disks, keyboards, monitors, mice, printers, scanners, tape drives, microphones, speakers, cameras, to list just the less exotic ones.

High speed working memory, such as RAM, ROM or, in the old days, core would not normally be referred to as peripherals. The more modern term "device" is also more general in that it is used for things such as a pseudo-tty, a RAM drive, or a network adaptor.

Some argue that, since the advent of the personal computer, the motherboard, hard disk, keyboard, mouse, and monitor are all parts of the base system, and only use the term "peripheral" for optional additional components.
