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) An object that contains a set of hexadecimal characters used to convert one or more characters of data. The table can be used for the conversion of data being moved between the system and a device. For example, data stored in one coded character set may need to be displayed or entered on display devices that support a different coded character set. The table can also be used to specify an alternative collating sequence or field conversion functions. The system-recognized identifier for the object type is *TBL.<br />(2) A table that contains a set of characters that can be replaced with alternative characters.

(1) In Notes, a meeting about which invitees are notified; they do not need to respond to the invitation. This option is useful when individual response will not affect the occurrence of the meeting.<br />(2) In Sametime, a broadcast presentation or demo.

(1) An object that contains a set of hexadecimal characters used to map data from one character set and code page to another. For example, unprintable characters can be mapped to blanks, and lowercase alphabetic characters can be mapped to uppercase characters.<br />(2) A table that the REORG utility uses to map the associations of the RIDs of data records in the original copy and in the shadow copy. This table is created by the user.
Industry:Software
(1) In object distribution, a batch input stream sent by one user to one or more users in the network as defined in the system distribution directory.<br />(2)
Industry:Software
(1) An object that contains message descriptions. The system-recognized identifier for the object type is *MSGF.<br />(2) In CICS, the file holding the text of all CICS messages.<br />(3) A file containing messages sent in bulk through a message bulking service.
Industry:Software
(1) In object distribution, an entry in the network job table that specifies the system action required for incoming network jobs sent by a particular user or group of users. Each entry is identified by the user ID of the originating user or group.<br />(2) In CICS/VSE only, a facility for transmitting jobs (JCL and in-stream data sets), SYSOUT data sets, (job-oriented) operator commands and operator messages, and job accounting information from one computing system to another.<br />(3) A facility for linking single-processor systems or multi-access spool complexes into a processing network
Industry:Software
(1) An object that contains specifications, such as priority, maximum processing time, and maximum storage, to control the run-time environment of a job. The system-recognized identifier for the object type is *CLS.<br />(2) In the Distributed Computing Environment (DCE), a category into which objects are placed based on their purpose and internal structure.<br />(3) In object-oriented design or programming, a model or template that can be used to create objects with a common definition and common properties, operations, and behavior. An object is an instance of a class.<br />(4) In C++, a user-defined data type. A class data type can contain both data representations (data members) and functions (member functions).<br />(5) In RACF, a collection of defined entities (users, groups, and resources) with similar characteristics.<br />(6) An attribute that is related to a transaction code and a message region that is used to determine scheduling. See also message class, region class.<br />(7) A description of a set of objects that share the same attributes, operations, methods, relationships, and semantics. A class may use a set of interfaces to specify collections of operations that it provides to its environment. See also interface, object.<br />(8) The definition of an object within a specific hierarchy. A class can have properties and methods and can serve as the target of an association.<br />(9) A section of a module. A class can represent programme text, that is, the instructions and data that are loaded into virtual storage during execution. Other classes, such as an external symbol dictionary (ESD) and a relocation dictionary (RLD), are required for binding and loading the program.
Industry:Software
(1) In object-oriented design or programming, a service that can be requested at the boundary of an object. Operations include modifying an object or disclosing information about an object.<br />(2) A specific action (such as add, multiply, or shift) that the computer performs when requested.<br />(3) An implementation of functions or queries that an object might be called to perform. See also method.
Industry:Software
(1) An object that owns a thread and can initiate control activity.<br />(2) An instance of active class. See also active class.
Industry:Software
(1) In object-oriented programming, a class that represents a concept; classes derived from it represent implementations of the concept. An object cannot be constructed from an abstract class; that is, it cannot be instantiated. See also parent class, base class, concrete class.<br />(2) A class with at least one pure virtual function that is used as a base class for other classes.
