Sometimes referred to as “Big Blue” IBM is a multinational corporation headquartered in Armonk, New York. It manufactures computer hardware and software and provides information technology and services.
(1) A special purpose, dedicated computer that attaches two or more networks.<br />(2) A part of the System i Access licensed programs that handle requests to send and receive data from applications on the personal computer and routes them to the appropriate applications on the system.<br />(3) A computer that determines the path of network traffic flow. The path selection is made from several paths based on information obtained from specific protocols, algorithms that attempt to identify the shortest or best path, and other criteria such as metrics or protocol-specific destination addresses.<br />(4) An attaching device that connects two LAN segments at the reference-model network layer. The LAN segments can use similar or different architectures.<br />(5) An MVS program that presents a common systems interface for all products providing resource control. Resource managing components (such as CICS) call the MVS router as part of certain decision-making functions in their processing.
Industry:Software
(1) A logical or virtual connection between two stations, software programs, or devices on a network that allows the two elements to communicate and exchange data. See also SQL connection, transaction.<br />(2) A type of resource that controls local logical units (LUs), remote LUs, modes, and attachments.<br />(3) In Java EE, an object used by a servlet to track a user's interaction with a Web application across multiple HTTP requests.<br />(4) In a distributed application, a single conversation between a communicating pair of transactions. See also conversation.<br />(5) A series of requests to a servlet originating from the same user at the same browser.<br />(6) A collection of process groups established for job control purposes.
Industry:Software
(1) A logical organization of users whose membership allows them to perform the same activities or provide the same authority to access resources.<br />(2) In a satellite environment, a collection of satellites that share characteristics such as the database configuration and the application that runs on the satellites.<br />(3) A collection of users who can share access authorities for protected resources.<br />(4) A named list of users and servers. It can be used in contact lists, access control lists, and so on.<br />(5) In places, two or more people who are grouped for membership in a place.<br />(6) In resource definition online, a collection of related resources. The main purpose of an RDO group is convenience in storing definitions in the CSD.<br />(7) A list of elements with information about how those elements can appear in a message. Groups can be ordered, unordered, or selective.<br />(8) With respect to partitioned data sets (PDSs), a member and the member's aliases that exist in a PDS or partitioned data set extended (PDSE), or in an unloaded PDSE.<br />(9) A set of related documents within an interchange. An interchange can contain zero to many groups.
Industry:Software
(1) A mechanism for connecting two unlike parts or machines, or for electrically or physically connecting a device to a computer or to another device.<br />(2) A set of software modules that communicate with an integration broker and with applications or technologies to perform tasks such as executing application logic and exchanging data.<br />(3) A transparent, intermediary software component that allows two other software components to communicate with one another.
Industry:Software
(1) A mechanism for describing and constraining the content of XML files by indicating which elements are allowed and in which combinations. XML schemas are an alternative to document type definitions (DTDs) and can be used to extend functionality in the areas of data typing, inheritance, and presentation.<br />(2) A means for defining the structure, content, and semantics of XML documents as defined by a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recommendation.
Industry:Software
(1) A mechanism on a pointing device, such as a mouse, used to request or start an action.<br />(2) A graphic that executes an action when clicked.
Industry:Software
(1) A member of a set of similar programs or packages and, in DB2 for z/OS, similar DBRMs or LOBs.<br />(2) A separately licensed program that usually has significant new code or new function.<br />(3) An object that implements a particular revision of an element. The versions of an element are organized into a version tree structure. See also checked-out version.
Industry:Software
(1) A message or a displayed symbol that requests information or user action. The user must respond to allow the program to proceed.<br />(2) In WebSphere Voice Response, a program that uses logic to determine dynamically the voice segments to be played as a voice prompt.<br />(3) A component of an action that indicates that user input is required for a field before making a transition to an output screen.
Industry:Software
(1) A characteristic of an object that controls which programs can access the object. See also system domain object, user domain object.<br />(2) A set of systems that allocate shared network resources within a single logical system.<br />(3) In communications, the network resources under control of a particular system services control point (SSCP).<br />(4) In TCP/IP, a named set of hosts. Each domain has authority for the machines within that domain, but not for machines in other domains.<br />(5) In a database, the set of valid values for an attribute.<br />(6) A logical grouping of resources in a network for the purpose of common management and administration.<br />(7) In the Internet, a part of a naming hierarchy in which the domain name consists of a sequence of names (labels) separated by periods (dots).<br />(8) A part of a network that is administered as a unit with a common protocol.<br />(9) A functionally isolated area of the CICS system that owns resources to which it has sole access and that communicates with other parts of CICS through strictly defined interfaces called gates.
Industry:Software
(1) A message or other indication that signals an event or an impending event.<br />(2) A notice that describes replication events and conditions. The Replication Alert Monitor sends alerts to an e-mail address or to a pager.<br />(3) To cause the user's terminal to give some audible or visual indication that an error or some other event has occurred.
