What is ICE?....

The solid phase of a substance; when unqualified, generally assumed to mean water ice. This capitalization, in Internet terms, is specified emphatically and should be read in a shouting voice.

Purchase or steal a clue.

hi, google it frist.

Probably In Circuit Emulator.

thanks for replys.

What is ICE "In-Circuit Emulator"?

thank you any positive suggestion is welcome may goodness be with you all

If you have to ask, you're in over your head.

It is interesting that some people have found groups.google.com and posted an information request from there, while the information would have been available through

:-).

Perhaps you would care to do a Google search yourself before denigrating the OP's question. OK, I got 160,000,000 hits but the first page full didn't have anything close the answers I suspect that the OP was after. I think that it is always beneficial, if you are suggesting Googling to a relative noob that you have at least done some preparatory work to help them hone in a little faster.

Others have, I noted, already presented responses in the context of this newsgroup that may have already answered the OP's question.

Well, as the question was posted in comp.arch.embedded you could limit the search for ICE and embedded which gives more usefull links. BTW: ICE also is the name of the high speed trains in Germany

In the world of GCC, an ICE is "Internal Compiler Error".

No doubt you will get a lot of hits from the solid form of water :-).

However, since the OP posted to comp.arch.embedded, it appears that he/she was not interested in the solid form of water, but rather with something to do with computers, embedded systems, microprocessors, microcontrollers etc. Including some of these e.g.

ICE microcontroller

would have brought up the definition on the search page directly as the second item and clicking the first would also have returned the same information. Googling ICE microprocessor would also have turned up relevant links on the first page.

I was fully aware of that (look at the message time stamps) and also aware of the OP's response to that by asking

Either this is someone really lazy doing his/her homework or more likely a troll, since after giving some explanation for In-Circuit Emulator, the OP would have asked again started about every concept from that point.

I think that even with questions that looks very much like homework, one can get much more usable answers from this news by showing that you have at least first tried to solve the problem on your own, but then gotten into a dead end and then need some help. Getting into a dead end will happen to everybody. However, expecting that others will feed you with a spoon without doing any effort will not get much sympathy.

The first one was the Institute of Chemical Engineers; but yes, there was quite a lot on frozen water and ice-cream products (even when the letters I C and E are separated by spaces or periods. [%X]

I totally agree that a better framed question, with evidence of at least minimal research by the original poster, would have improved the quality of the response.

ICE is the foundation of the drink that I pour myself at the end of the day when I look in the mirror and ask myself, "What in the Hell were you thinking when you decided to make engineering your life's profession?"

It's a two-step process for me. If I had no idea, first I would google on "acronym server"**.

From that, with a few clicks, I would get:

ICE Illinois Computing Educators ICE In-Car Entertainment ICE In-Circuit Emulator Intel ICE Innovations (in) Connectivity Exposition ICE Insane Creator's Enterprises ICE Instituto Costarricense (de) Electricidad ICE InterCity Experimental another German train ICE InterCity Express German train ICE Interactive Collaborative Environment Sandia National Laboratories, USA ICE Internal Combustion Engine ICE International Cometary Explorer ICE Intrusion Countermeasures Electronics

** Of course, not everyone would agree that "ICE" is an acronym, but "initialism server" doesn't yield as good results.

In fact, a Google search for "ICE acronym" shows that "In-circuit emulator" is perhaps the least popular meaning :-)

That doesn't include the latest and highly hyped meaning: In Case of Emergency.

Well, it's likely either an acronym or the OP's caps lock key is stuck.

How do you say it? I say eye cee eee, which, by some definitions is not an acronym like "UART" (yu-art), but an abbreviation or initialism.

The three words are intertwingled :-) There's no requirement that an acronym be pronounceable, though it can be. Initialism seems to be restricted to acronyms which are only pronounced by spelling out the letters. An acronym is an abbreviation, but abbreviations can take other forms as well.
