(1) The act of giving other users or groups the authority to perform operations.<br />(2) The process of propagating a security identity from a caller to a called object. According to the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) specification, a servlet and an enterprise bean can propagate either the client identity when invoking enterprise beans, or can use another specified identity as indicated in the corresponding deployment descriptor.
Industry:Software
(1) The act of packaging enterprise beans into a JAR file for distribution to a container on an enterprise bean server.<br />(2) The process of making WebSphere Commerce application code available for use. This process includes packaging customised commands, data beans, and enterprise beans into JAR files. The JAR files must then be installed and configured within a container.
Industry:Software
(1) The actions that an administrator or Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator is to take if a certain new item or if a difference in the data centre model is discovered.<br />(2) A policy that defines an area of the Web environment to investigate and sample the transaction activity of real customers and average performance times for Uniform Resource Indicator (URI) requests during a specified time period so you can set a baseline of performance.
Industry:Software
(1) The actual character value (a symbol, quantity, or constant) in a source programme that is itself data, instead of reference to a field that contains the data. See also numeric constant.<br />(2) In the C language, a character or an escape sequence enclosed in quotation marks.<br />(3) A constant value whose data attribute is character.
Industry:Software
(1) The actual numeric value to be used in processing, instead of the name of a field containing the data. A numeric constant can contain any of the numeric digits 0 through 9, a sign (plus or minus), and a decimal point. See also character constant.<br />(2) A constant that expresses an integer, a real number, or a complex number.
Industry:Software
(1) The address of a particular device, specified at the time a system is installed.<br />(2) In mainframe computing, the address associated with a device on a given control unit. On ESCON or FICON interfaces, the unit address is the same as the device address. On OEMI interfaces, the unit address specifies a control unit and device pair on the interface.<br />(3) The identifier for a logical subsystem and the logical device within the subsystem.
Industry:Software
(1) The AIX process that executes the logic of the state table; each active caller session has one active channel process.<br />(2) In WebSphere Voice Server, the system process that manages call flow.
Industry:Software
(1) The amount of central storage required by a job or a job step to execute efficiently on a processor.<br />(2) With respect to data, the attributes that describe the data and its usage, as opposed to the physical location of the data. See also physical storage.
Industry:Software
(1) The amount of time between the time when a network device originally receives a packet and the time when the packet is retransmitted.<br />(2) The time interval between the instant at which an instruction control unit initiates a call for data and the instant at which the actual transfer of the data starts.<br />(3) The time from the initiation of an operation until something actually starts happening (for example, data transmission begins).<br />(4) In replication, part or all of the approximate difference between the time that a source table is changed and the time that the change is applied to the corresponding target table. See also Apply latency, Capture latency, Q Apply latency, Q Capture latency, end-to-end latency.
Industry:Software
(1) The amounts of colour and grey in a hue that affect its vividness; that is, a hue with high saturation contains more colour and less grey than a hue with low saturation.<br />(2) The level at which a system no longer operates at its full capacity. See also consumption.
