A contiguous area of storage obtained directly from the operating system. The Language Environment storage management scheme subdivides heap segments into individual heap elements. If the initial heap segment becomes full, Language Environment obtains a second segment, or increment, from the operating system. See also heap element.
Industry:Software
A data structure that references data items to enable a search to find documents that contain the query terms.
Industry:Software
A form of session-level pacing in which session components exchange pacing windows that may vary in size during the course of a session. This allows transmission within a network to adapt dynamically to variations in availability and demand of buffers on a session-by-session basis. Session-level pacing occurs within independent stages along the session path according to local congestion at the intermediate and endpoint nodes. See also fixed session-level pacing.
Industry:Software
A communication port on a single input/output processor using short-hold mode on a single SDLC line description.
Industry:Software
A contiguous area of storage obtained directly from the operating system. The Language Environment storage management scheme subdivides stack segments into individual dynamic storage areas (DSAs). If the initial stack segment becomes full, a second segment or increment is obtained from the operating system.
Industry:Software
A data structure that represents a hierarchical relationship among transaction programmes and other resource managers in a two-phase commit operation. The root node of the tree is the application that starts the transaction, which may not be the initiator of the commit request in a peer-to-peer communication protocol like LU 6.2.
Industry:Software
A form of session-level pacing in which the data transfer rate is controlled using fixed pacing-window sizes, which are initialized at session-activation time. See also adaptive session-level pacing.
Industry:Software
A communication protocol from the Network Layer of the Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) network architecture, such as the Internet Protocol (IP).
Industry:Software
A contiguous area of virtual storage that is dynamically started as load increases and automatically stopped as load eases.
Industry:Software
A data structure that represents entities in nodes, with at most one parent node for each node, and with only one root node.
