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 device for processing data from programmed instructions. It may be part of another unit.<br />(2) One or more integrated circuits that process coded instructions and perform a task.<br />(3) In a computer, the part that interprets and executes instructions. Two typical components of a processor are a control unit and an arithmetic logic unit.
Industry:Software
(1) A device or program used to connect networks or systems with different network architectures.<br />(2) An entity that operates above the link layer and converts, when required, the interface and protocol used by one network into those used by another distinct network.<br />(3) Software that provides services between the endpoints and the rest of the Tivoli environment.<br />(4) A component of a Voice over Internet Protocol that provides a bridge between VoIP and circuit-switched environments.<br />(5) A middleware component that bridges Internet and intranet environments during Web service invocations.<br />(6) A ground-based link to a mobile satellite service network.<br />(7) An exit point from Partner Gateway that is used by Partner Gateway to deliver documents to a back-end system or a trading partner.
Industry:Software
(1) A relationship between a set of input data values and a set of result values that is used to extend and customize SQL or XQuery. Functions are invoked from elements of SQL statements such as the select list or the FROM clause and from XQuery as primary expressions. See also aggregate function, built-in function, external function, scalar function, sourced function, table function, user-defined function, SQL function, row function, routine.<br />(2) Any instruction or set of related instructions that perform a specific operation.<br />(3) A named group of statements that can be called and evaluated and can return a value to the calling statement. See also built-in function.<br />(4) In REXX, a series of instructions that a REXX procedure calls to perform a specific task and to return a value. The three types of routines that can be called as functions are internal, built-in, and external.<br />(5) In SQL, an operation that supplies a single value from another value or from a set of values. A function obtains a single value by applying the function name (for example, AVG) to the result of the expression (for example, column-name).<br />(6) A machine action such as carriage return or line feed.<br />(7) In ADSI, an ADSI instruction, or group of instructions.
Industry:Software
(1) A device that examines text, graphics, or bar code patterns and generates electrical signals corresponding to the pattern. It sends the signals to a computing device for processing.<br />(2) The software used to gather hardware information and software information from systems and devices.
Industry:Software
(1) A request for information from a database based on specific conditions: for example, a request for a list of all customers in a customer table whose balances are greater than $1000.<br />(2) A component of certain SQL or XQuery statements that specifies a result set.<br />(3) In interactive systems, an operation at a workstation that elicits a response from the system.<br />(4) In a Tivoli environment, a combination of statements that are used to search the configuration repository for systems that meet certain criteria. The query object is created within a query library.<br />(5) A method for filtering and sorting requirements in views by limiting either the values of one or more attributes or traceability and specifying the order in which to display the filtered requirements. See also sorting.<br />(6) A reusable request for information about one or more model elements
Industry:Software
(1) A direct connection between the data in one CICSPlex SM view and a view containing related information. For example, from a view that lists multiple CICS resources, there may be a hyperlink to a detailed view for one of the resources. To use a hyperlink, place the cursor in the data portion of a hyperlink field and press Enter.<br />(2) An area on a Web page that, when clicked, connects you to another area on the page or another Web page.
Industry:Software
(1) A display station from which an operator can control and observe the system operation.<br />(2) In COBOL, a function name associated with the operator's display station.<br />(3) A user interface for one or more administrative tasks. For example, the IBM Integrated Solutions Console integrates the administrative tasks for multiple products and solutions into a single console.<br />(4) A user interface to a server, such as can be provided by a personal computer.
Industry:Software
(1) A display station from which an operator can control and observe the system operation.<br />(2) The device that is in control of the i5/OS operating system after the system has been shut down and when the system is in a restricted state. Only one device can be the system console at one time. See also backup console.
Industry:Software
(1) A file containing data that is to be processed unattended.<br />(2) A file that contains instructions that are processed sequentially, as a unit.
Industry:Software
(1) A self-contained, self-describing modular application that can be published, discovered, and invoked over a network using standard network protocols. Typically, XML is used to tag the data, SOAP is used to transfer the data, WSDL is used for describing the services available, and UDDI is used for listing what services are available.<br />(2) An application that performs specific tasks and is accessible through open protocols such as HTTP and SOAP.
