A method of enciphering and deciphering data in address spaces or data spaces. Each 64-bit block of plaintext is separately enciphered and each block of the ciphertext is separately deciphered.
Industry:Software
A method of handling multiple jobs that must be run in a specific order because of job dependencies. DJC manages jobs that are dependent upon one another.
Industry:Software
A method of Internet Protocol (IP) address management in which Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) assigns IP addresses to hosts and updates the host IP records in the Domain Name System (DNS). This method keeps DNS records current as IP address assignments change.
Industry:Software
A method of processing indexed files in which limits are specified for the beginning and ending values of the key field for the records to be read or written.
Industry:Software
A method of processing indexed files in which records are read or written in the order of the key field in the record.
Industry:Software
A method of reducing repetitive patterns in ciphertext by performing an exclusive-OR operation on each 8-byte block of data with the previously encrypted 8-byte block before it is encrypted.
Industry:Software
A method of rounding off a number by adjusting the last significant digit. When the number to the right of the last significant digit is 5 or greater, add 1 to the digit. For example, 2.475 half-adjusted to two decimal places becomes 2.48, but 2.474 becomes 2.47.
Industry:Software
A method of sharing data among IMS systems so that multiple application programmes can access and update data concurrently between multiple IMS subsystems. See also database-level sharing, data sharing.
Industry:Software
A method of storing information on magneto-optic media using a laser and magnetic read/write heads. A laser is used to heat a small spot on the media that the write head alters magnetically. The ability to focus the laser tightly increases the data density over standard magnetic media. MO discs are erasable and rewritable.
Industry:Software
A method of tokenization that uses Unicode character properties to distinguish between token and separator characters.
