(1) The business object that a connector sends to subscribing collaborations when an application event occurs.<br />(2) The specified operation in a trigger definition that causes the activation of that trigger. The triggering event is comprised of a triggering operation (insert, update, or delete) and a subject table or view on which the operation is performed.
Industry:Software
(1) The capability of a system or device to be attached to other systems or devices without modification.<br />(2) The degree to which storage controls are joined to a direct access storage device (DASD) and processors to achieve adequate data paths (and alternative data paths) to meet data availability needs.
Industry:Software
(1) The capability of an identifier or method to have different meanings depending on the context. For example, in C++, a user can redefine functions and most standard operators when the functions and operators are used with class types<br />(2) The existence of more than one flavour of method with the same name or operator, but with different signatures, within a class. The name or operator remains the same, but the method parameters differ, with each signature requiring a separate implementation. Such methods usually exhibit the same behavior, despite differences in signature.
Industry:Software
(1) The capability of the session bean, servlet, or application client component to manage its own transactions directly, instead of through a container.<br />(2) A transaction where the bean itself is responsible for administering transaction tasks such as committal or rollback. See also container-managed transaction.
Industry:Software
(1) The capacity of a communication line, normally expressed in bits per second (bps).<br />(2) The difference, expressed in hertz, between the highest and the lowest frequencies of a range of frequencies.<br />(3) In asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), the capacity of a virtual channel, expressed in terms of peak cell rate (PCR), sustainable cell rate (SCR), and maximum burst size (MBS).<br />(4) A measure of the capacity of a communication transport medium (such as a TV cable) to convey data.<br />(5) The range of frequencies an electronic system can transmit or receive. The greater the bandwidth of a system, the more information the system can transfer in a given period of time.
Industry:Software
(1) The catalyst used to call event-driven services controlled within CICS. A DWE causes a unit of work to be scheduled later, normally at the end of the task or just before or after syncpoint.<br />(2) A work element created and placed on a chain (the DWE chain) to save information about an event that must be completed before task termination but that is not completed at the present time. DWEs are also used to save information about work to be backed out in case of an abend.
Industry:Software
(1) The characteristics of a specific content server that uniquely identify it to Information Integrator for Content.<br />(2) In a federated system, the name and information that define the data sources to the federated database. The server definition is used by the wrapper when SQL statements that use nicknames are submitted to the federated database.
Industry:Software
(1) The characters common to object names that can be used to identify a group of objects. A generic name ends with an asterisk (*). For example, ORD* identifies all objects whose names begin with the characters ORD.<br />(2) In the hierarchical file system, a path name that contains one or more wildcard characters.
Industry:Software
(1) The characters that identify the name of the unit that detected the condition and the reference code that describes the condition.<br />(2) A group of characters that identifies the machine status or a specific error condition. The system reference code can be displayed on the console from the problem log.
Industry:Software
(1) The CICS facility for managing basic operations against a file (ADD, READ, DELETE, REWRITE, and BROWSE).<br />(2) COBOL, the name and header of an Environment Division paragraph in which the data files for a source programme are named and assigned to specific input/output devices.
