(1) In data compression, a table that associates words, phrases, or data patterns with shorter tokens. The tokens replace the associated words, phrases, or data patterns when a data set is compressed.<br />(2) A grouping of logically related components of a particular syntax type, such as ROD dictionaries, EDI dictionaries, and XML dictionaries.
Industry:Software
(1) One of the four corners of the physical medium (usually paper) where printing begins.<br />(2) The first hardware addressable point on the physical sheet.<br />(3) The reference point from which the logical page origin is positioned by the medium map. This point is represented by Xm=0, Ym=0 in the Xm, Ym coordinate system. The media origin is defined relative to the top-left corner of the form. See also logical page origin.
Industry:Software
An interface map that is one level deeper than operation mappings because it maps the parameters in the source operation to the parameters in the target operation. There are five types of parameter mappings: move, map, extract, Java, and assign.
Industry:Software
An interface registered in the OSGi Service Platform and made available for receiving remote or local invocations.
Industry:Software
An interface that allows an application program that is written in a high-level language to use specific data or functions of the operating system or another program.
Industry:Software
An interface that allows an application program to send or receive a device-dependent terminal data stream.
Industry:Software
(1) An automatic device that uses feedback to govern the physical position of a part.<br />(2) A feedback control system in which at least one of the signals represents mechanical motion.
Industry:Software
(1) In data transmission, a functional unit that permits a common transmission medium to serve more data sources than there are channels currently available within the transmission medium.<br />(2) Any device that combines incoming messages into a single message (concentration) or extracts individual messages from the data sent in a single transmission sequence (deconcentration).
Industry:Software
(1) One of the four levels of service (fast, status, data high, or data low) that determines if a distribution is put on the normal or priority distribution queue.<br />(2) A set of logical characteristics of storage required by a data set managed by a storage management subsystem (SMS). Examples of these logical characteristics are performance, security, and availability.<br />(3) A class of service that can be used in business policies to aggregate a set of desired and implied service qualities.
Industry:Software
(1) An auxiliary storage pool that contains only disk units.<br />(2) In z/VM Center, a logical grouping of contiguous disk spaces. A disk pool can include disk spaces from multiple physical disks. A disk pool corresponds to a z/VM Directory Maintenance Facility allocation group.
