A matrix that identifies possible requests for database access and relates each request to information categories or elements in the database.
Industry:Computer; Software
A matrix that records the relationship between two or more products of the development process; for example, a matrix that records the relationship between the requirements and the design of a given software component.
Industry:Computer; Software
A mechanism or piece of equipment designed to serve a purpose or perform a function.
Industry:Computer; Software
A meeting at which software code is presented to project personnel, managers, users, customers, or other interested parties for comment or approval.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method for passing parameters, in which the calling module provides to the called module a symbolic expression representing the parameter to be passed, and a service routine evaluates the expression and provides the resulting value to the called module. Note: Because the expression is evaluated each time its corresponding formal parameter is used in the called module, the value of the parameter may change during the execution of the called module.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method for passing parameters, in which the calling module provides to the called module the address of the parameter to be passed. Note: With this method, the called module has the ability to change the value of the parameter stored by the calling module.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method of addressing in which the operation field of an computer instruction implies the address of the operands. For example, if a computer has only one accumulator, an instruction that refers to the accumulator needs no address information describing it. Types include one-ahead addressing, repetitive addressing.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method of implied addressing in which the operands for a computer instruction are understood to be in the storage locations following the locations of the operands used for the last instruction executed.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method of implied addressing in which the operation field of an computer instruction is understood to address the operands of the last instruction executed.
Industry:Computer; Software
A method of passing parameters, in which the calling module provides to the called module the actual value of the parameter to be passed. Note: With this method, the called module cannot change the value of the parameter as stored by the calling module.
