qcow is a file format for disk image files used by QEMU, a hosted virtual machine monitor. [1] It stands for "QEMU Copy On Write" and uses a disk storage optimization strategy that delays allocation of storage until it is actually needed.
In the hypervisor support mode, QEMU either acts as a Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) or as a device emulation back-end for virtual machines running under a hypervisor. The most common is Linux's KVM but the project supports a number of hypervisors including Xen , Apple's HVF, Windows' WHPX, and NetBSD's NVMM.

In computing, a system image is a serialized copy of the entire state of a computer system stored in some non-volatile form, such as a binary executable file. If a system has all its state written to a disk (i.e. on a disk image ), then a system image can be produced by copying the disk to a file elsewhere, often with disk cloning applications.
Deployment Image Service and Management Tool (DISM) is a tool introduced in Windows 7 [10] and Windows Server 2008 R2 [10] that can perform servicing tasks on a Windows installation image, be it an online image (i.e. the one the user is running) or an offline image within a folder or WIM file. Its features include mounting and unmounting images ...
On Microsoft Windows operating systems, starting with the Internet Explorer 4 Active Desktop Update for Windows 95 to 98, [1] [2] a thumbnail cache is used to store thumbnail images for Windows Explorer's thumbnail view. This speeds up the display of images as these smaller images do not need to be recalculated every time the user views the folder.

In computer programming, a thread pool is a software design pattern for achieving concurrency of execution in a computer program. Often also called a replicated workers or worker-crew model , [ 1 ] a thread pool maintains multiple threads waiting for tasks to be allocated for concurrent execution by the supervising program.
