Active record pattern
Name: Active record pattern
Description: In computer science, the active record pattern is a design pattern frequently found in enterprise applications.

Active record is an approach to accessing data in a database. A database table or view is wrapped into a class, thus an object instance is tied to a single row in the table. After creation of an object, a new row is added to the table upon save. Any object loaded gets its information from the database; when an object is updated, the corresponding row in the table is also updated. The wrapper class implements accessor methods or properties for each column in the table or view. ...

ActiveX
Name: ActiveX
Description: ActiveX is a component object model (COM) developed by Microsoft for Windows. By using the COM runtime, developers can create software components that perform a particular function or a set of functions. A software can then compose one or more components in order to provide the functionality it intends to.[1] Many Microsoft Windows applications — including many of those from Microsoft such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Visual Studio, Windows Media Player, etc. — use ActiveX controls to build their feature set as well as encapsulate their functionality as ActiveX controls so that the functionality can be embedded in other applications. Internet Explorer also allows the ActiveX controls to be embedded inside web pages. ...

ADO
Name: ADO
Description: Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) is a set of Component Object Model objects for accessing data sources. It provides a layer between programming languages and OLE DB (a means of accessing data stores, whether they be databases or otherwise, in a uniform manner), which allows a developer to write programs which access data, without knowing how the database is implemented. You must be aware of your database for connection only. No knowledge of SQL is required to access a database when using ADO, although one can use ADO to execute arbitrary SQL commands. The disadvantage of this (i.e. using SQL directly) is that it introduces a dependency upon the type of database used.

It is positioned as a successor to Microsoft's earlier object layers for accessing data sources, including RDO (Remote Data Objects) and DAO (Data Access Objects). ADO was introduced by Microsoft in the winter of 1996. ...

Ajax
Name: Ajax
Description: Ajax, shorthand for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a web development technique for creating interactive web applications. The intent is to make web pages feel more responsive by exchanging small amounts of data with the server behind the scenes, so that the entire web page does not have to be reloaded each time the user makes a change. This is meant to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, and usability.

The Ajax technique uses a combination of:

    * XHTML (or HTML) and CSS, for marking up and styling information.

    * The DOM accessed with a client-side scripting language, especially ECMAScript implementations such as JavaScript and JScript, to dynamically display and interact with the information presented.

    * The XMLHttpRequest object is used to exchange data asynchronously with the web server. In some Ajax frameworks and in certain situations, an IFrame object is used instead of the XMLHttpRequest object to exchange data with the web server, and in other implementations, dynamically added <script> tags may be used.

    * XML is sometimes used as the format for transferring data between the server and client, although any format will work, including preformatted HTML, plain text, JSON and even EBML. These files may be created dynamically by some form of server-side scripting.

Like DHTML, LAMP and SPA, Ajax is not a technology in itself, but a term that refers to the use of a group of technologies. ...

Business Process Modeling (BPM)
Name: Business Process Modeling (BPM)
Description: The term process model is used in different contexts. For example, in business process modeling the enterprise process model is often referred to as the business process model. Process models are core concepts in the discipline of Process Engineering.

Process models are processes of the same nature that are classified together into a model. Thus, a process model is a description of a process at the type level. Since the process model is at the type level, a process is an instantiation of it. The same process model is used repeatedly for the development of many applications and thus, has many instantiations. One possible use of a process model is to prescribe how things must/should/could be done in contrast to the process itself which is really what happens. A process model is roughly an anticipation of what the process will look like. What the process shall be will be determined during actual system development. ...

Description: The C programming language is a standardized imperative computer programming language developed in the early 1970s by Dennis Ritchie for use on the Unix operating system. It has since spread to many other operating systems, and is one of the most widely used programming languages. C is prized for the efficiency of the code it produces, and is the most popular programming language for writing system software, though it is also used for writing applications. Although it was not designed as a teaching language, and despite its somewhat unforgiving character, C is also commonly used in computer science education, in part because the language is so pervasive.

C shell
Name: C shell
Description: The C shell (csh) is a Unix shell developed by Bill Joy for the BSD Unix system. It was originally derived from the 6th Edition Unix /bin/sh (which was the Thompson shell), the predecessor of the Bourne shell. Its syntax is modeled after the C programming language. The C shell added many feature improvements over the Bourne shell, such as aliases and command history. Today, the original C shell is not in wide use on Unix; it has been superseded by other shells such as the Tenex C shell (tcsh) based on the original C shell code, but adding filename completion and command line editing, comparable with the Korn shell (ksh), and the GNU Bourne-Again shell (bash). An independently-developed and modernized C shell, created by Nicole Hamilton, also survives on Windows in the form of Hamilton C shell. ...

CAD
Name: CAD
Description: Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer technology to aid in the design and especially the drafting (technical drawing and engineering drawing) of a part or product, including entire buildings. It is both a visual (or drawing) and symbol-based method of communication whose conventions are particular to a specific technical field.

Drafting can be done in two dimensions ("2D") and three dimensions ("3D"). Drafting is the integral communication of technical or engineering drawings and is the industrial arts sub-discipline that underlies all involved technical endeavors. In representing complex, three-dimensional objects in two-dimensional drawings, these objects have traditionally been represented by three projected views at right angles.

Current CAD software packages range from 2D vector-based drafting systems to 3D solid and surface modellers. Modern CAD packages can also frequently allow rotations in three dimensions, allowing viewing of a designed object from any desired angle, even from the inside looking out. Some CAD software is capable of dynamic mathematic modeling, in which case it may be marketed as CADD — computer-aided design and drafting. ...

CGI
Name: CGI
Description: The Common Gateway Interface (CGI) is a standard protocol for interfacing external application software with an information server, commonly a web server. This allows the server to pass requests from a client web browser to the external application. The web server can then return the output from the application to the web browser.

CGI arose out of discussions on the www-talk mailing list between Rob McCool, John Franks, Ari Luotonen, George Phillips and Tony Sanders in 1993. Rob McCool, working at NCSA, drafted the initial specification and provided a reference implementation in the NCSA HTTPd web server using environment variables to store parameters passed from the web server execution environment before spawning the CGI program as a separate process.

An example of a CGI program is the one implementing a wiki. The user agent requests the name of an entry; the server will retrieve the source of that entry's page (if one exists), transform it into HTML, and send the result back to the browser or prompt the user to create it. All wiki operations are managed by this one program. ...

Clarion
Name: Clarion
Description: Clarion is a 4GL programming language and Integrated Development Environment from SoftVelocity used to program database applications. It is compatible with ISAM, SQL and ADO data access methods, reads and writes several popular flat file desktop database formats including ASCII, CSV, DOS (Binary), FoxPro, Clipper, dBase, or all SQL RDBMS databases via ODBC, MS SQL Server, Sybase SQLAnywhere and Oracle through the use of accelerated native database drivers, and XML, Clarion can be used to output to HTML, XML, plaintext, and PDF, among others. As of the time of writing (2006), Clarion is on version 6.3.

Database access is simple to implement, and list box formatting can be handled with easy to use WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) formatting windows.

One of Clarion's strong points is its use of "templates" which are used in conjunction with a code generator (named AppGen) to produce much of the repetitive, yet time consuming code that is typically required when producing an application. An "embeditor" shows the developer the code that will be generated and embed points where the developer can enter his/her own hand-code in the context of the template generated code.

Templates are open for developers to modify to suit their needs, and the template language, though very robust, is simple to learn. This makes the possibilities of what can be done in Clarion endless. Many companies sell third party templates to extend the functionality that comes "out of the box" with the Clarion product, as does SoftVelocity itself.

Development of templates that generate Microsoft .NET code from Clarion applications is underway at SoftVelocity, which will give Clarion developers the best of both worlds: Clarion developers will be able to program with the ease and speed they're accustomed to, and will be able to provide .NET code to clients who just have to have projects developed in Microsoft technology. ...

Clearcase
Name: Clearcase
Description: Rational ClearCase is a software tool for revision control (configuration management, SCM etc) of source code and other software development assets. It originally derived from a product of Apollo Computers: DSEE (Domain Software Engineering Environment), which was ported to Unix and further developed by Atria Software after Hewlett-Packard bought Apollo. Atria later merged with Pure Software to form PureAtria. That firm merged with Rational Software, which was purchased by IBM. IBM continues to develop and market ClearCase. ClearCase forms the base of version control for many large and medium sized businesses and can handle projects with hundreds or thousands of developers, but the price is quite steep for smaller companies.

Rational supports two types of SCM configurations, UCM (see below), and base ClearCase. UCM provides an out-of-the-box SCM configuration but is fairly rigid. Base ClearCase supplies the basic tools, and can be configured in many different ways.

ClearCase can run in many different Operating systems ranging from Linux, Solaris, and Windows. It can handle large binary files, extremely large numbers of files, extremely large repository sizes, and is extremely reliable. It handles branching, labeling, and versioning of directories very easily and intuitively, and doesn't clutter each directory with any SCM-only files like .scc or attic files. ...

Client/Server
Name: Client/Server
Description: Client/Server is a network architecture which separates the client (often a graphical user interface) from the server. Each instance of the client software can send requests to a server or application server.

Although this idea is applied in a variety of ways, on many different kinds of applications, the easiest example to visualize is the current use of web pages on the internet. For example, if you are reading this article on Wikipedia, your computer and web browser would be considered a client, and the computers , databases, and applications that make up the Wikipedia would be considered the server. When your web browser requests a particular article from Wikipedia, the Wikipedia server finds all of the information required to display the article in the Wikipedia database, assembles it into a web page, and sends it back to your web browser for you to look at. ...

Control systems
Name: Control systems
Description: A control system is a device or set of devices to manage, command, direct or regulate the behavior of other devices or systems.

There are two common classes of control systems, with many variations and combinations: logic or sequential controls, and feedback or linear controls. There is also fuzzy logic, which attempts to combine some of the design simplicity of logic with the utility of linear control. Some devices or systems are inherently not controllable.

The term "control system" may be applied to the essentially manual controls that allow an operator to, for example, close and open a hydraulic press, where the logic requires that it cannot be moved unless safety guards are in place.

An automatic sequential control system may trigger a series of mechanical actuators in the correct sequence to perform a task. For example various electric and pneumatic transducers may fold and glue a cardboard box, fill it with product and then seal it in an automatic packaging machine.

In the case of linear feedback systems, a control loop, including sensors, control algorithms and actuators, is arranged in such a fashion as to try to regulate a variable at a setpoint or reference value. An example of this may increase the fuel supply to a furnace when a measured temperature drops. PID controllers are common and effective in cases such as this . Control systems that include some sensing of the results they are trying to achieve are making use of feedback and so can, to some extent, adapt to varying circumstances. Open-loop control systems do not directly make use of feedback, but run only in pre-arranged ways. ...

Data Language/1 (DL/1)
Name: Data Language/1 (DL/1)
Description: Data Language/1 (DL/1) is the language system used to access IBM’s IMS databases, and its data communication system.

It is implemented from any language by making calls to a software stub, DFSLI000. This stub has entry points to handle a variety of programming languages e.g. calling CBLTDLI from a COBOL program. This stub is linked to the calling program, passes on the request to the IMS system, and returns the results and a status code.

In any full-function IMS database, the smallest element that can be retrieved is a segment. Each segment is made up of fields, one of which, typically, will be a key field. The segments are arranged hierarchically in the database, the highest level segment type being a root segment. 255 different segment types, on up to 15 levels, are allowed in any database. A database record consists of a specific root segment and all its dependent child segments — there is no limit to the number of segments in a record, or to the number of records in a database (apart from physical limitations of storage space). ...

Data mining
Name: Data mining
Description: Data mining is the principle of sorting through large amounts of data and picking out relevant information. It is usually used by business intelligence organizations, and financial analysts, but it is increasingly used in the sciences to extract information from the enormous data sets generated by modern experimental and observational methods. It has been described as "the nontrivial extraction of implicit, previously unknown, and potentially useful information from data" and "the science of extracting useful information from large data sets or databases". ...

Data Modeling
Name: Data Modeling
Description: In computer science, data modeling is the process of structuring and organizing data, typically using a database management system.

Managing large quantities of structured and unstructured data is a primary function of information systems. Data models describe structured data for storage in data management systems such as relational databases. They typically do not describe unstructured data, such as word processing documents, email messages, pictures, digital audio, and video. Early phases of many software development projects emphasize the design of a conceptual data model. Such a design can be detailed into a logical data model. In later stages, this model may be translated into physical data model. ...

Database transactions
Name: Database transactions
Description: A database transaction is a unit of interaction with a database management system or similar system that is treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions that must be either entirely completed or aborted. Ideally, a database system will guarantee the properties of Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability (ACID) for each transaction. In practice, these properties are often relaxed somewhat to provide better performance.

In some systems, transactions are also called LUWs for Logical Units of Work. ...

DataSynapse GRID Computing
Name: DataSynapse GRID Computing
Description: Grid computing is an emerging computing model that provides the ability to perform higher throughput computing by taking advantage of many networked computers to model a virtual computer architecture that is able to distribute process execution across a parallel infrastructure. Grids use the resources of many separate computers connected by a network (usually the Internet) to solve large-scale computation problems. Grids provide the ability to perform computations on large data sets, by breaking them down into many smaller ones, or provide the ability to perform many more computations at once than would be possible on a single computer, by modeling a parallel division of labor between processes. Today resource allocation in a grid is done in accordance with SLAs (service level agreements). ...

DDE
Name: DDE
Description: Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) is a technology for communication between multiple applications under Microsoft Windows and also OS/2. Although still supported in even latest Windows versions, it has mostly been replaced by its much more powerful successors OLE, COM, and OLE Automation. However, it is still used in several places inside Windows, e.g. for Shell file associations.

In particular, DDE allowed one application to open a session with another, send commands to the server application and receive responses. However, it did not enable the server application's GUI to be incorporated into the client application's; it did not support incorporation of server application data into client application files (i.e. structured storage); and in order to use DDE, one had to know the DDE commands that the server supported, which were generally not standardised (although some standards do exist, e.g. the spyglass specification for web browsers). Thus, in order to use DDE fully, special code must be added to each client application for each server application it wants to control, or the client application must provide a scripting language or macro facility. ...

Discrete event simulation
Name: Discrete event simulation
Description: In discrete-event simulation, the operation of a system is represented as a chronological sequence of events. Each event occurs at an instant in time and marks a change of state in the system [1]. For example, if an elevator is simulated, an event could be "level 6 button pressed", with the resulting system state of "lift moving" and eventually (unless one chooses to simulate the failure of the lift) "lift at level 6".

A common exercise in learning how to build discrete-event simulations is to model a queue, such as customers arriving at a bank to be served by a teller. In this example, the system entities are CUSTOMER-QUEUE and TELLERS. The system events are CUSTOMER-ARRIVAL and CUSTOMER-DEPARTURE. (The event of TELLER-BEGINS-SERVICE can be part of the logic of the arrival and departure events.) The system states, which are changed by these events, are NUMBER-OF-CUSTOMERS-IN-THE-QUEUE (an integer from 0 to n) and TELLER-STATUS (busy or idle). The random variables that need to be characterized to model this system stochastically are CUSTOMER-INTERARRIVAL-TIME and TELLER-SERVICE-TIME.

A number of mechanisms have been proposed for carrying out discrete-event simulation, among them are the event-based, activity-based, process-based and three-phase approaches (Pidd, 1998). The three-phase approach is used by a number of commercial simulation software packages, but from the user's point of view, the specifics of the underlying simulation method are generally hidden. ...

Description: Distributed Smalltalk (DST) provides an integrated set of object-oriented frameworks for the development and deployment of multi-user, enterprise-wide distributed applications. Fully integrated with VisualWorks, DST lets developers build multi-tiered applications that are compliant with the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA®). Applications built with DST make the best use of existing resources for increased performance, scalability, security, and easy maintenance.

DST provides an interactive environment for creating highly portable applications and a robust set of classes to simplify the process of building large, complex applications. By raising the level of abstraction, Distributed Smalltalk enables developers to become more productive when developing and deploying their applications. For example, developers do not need to write a communications infrastructure, a process which typically is tedious and error-prone. ...

Description: Data Transformation Services, or DTS, is a set of objects and utilities to allow the automation of extract, transform and load operations to or from a database. The objects are DTS packages and their components, and the utilities are called DTS tools. DTS is included with Microsoft SQL Server, and is almost always used with SQL Server databases, although it can be used independently with other databases.

DTS allows data to be transformed and loaded from heterogeneous sources using OLE DB, ODBC, or text-only files, into any supported database. DTS can also allow automation of data import or transformation on a scheduled basis, and can perform additional functions such as FTPing files and executing external programs. In addition, DTS provides an alternative method of version control and backup for packages when used in conjunction with a version control system, such as Microsoft Visual SourceSafe. ...

Eclipse
Name: Eclipse
Description: Eclipse is a free software / open source platform-independent software framework for delivering what the project calls "rich-client applications", as opposed to "thin client" browser-based applications. So far this framework has typically been used to develop IDEs (Integrated Development Environments), such as the Java IDE called Java Development Toolkit (JDT) and compiler that comes as part of Eclipse (and which are also used to develop Eclipse itself). However, it can be used for other types of client application as well. See the BitTorrent client Azureus for example.

Eclipse is also a community of users, constantly extending the covered application areas. As an example, the recently created EMP Eclipse (Top Level) Modeling Project covering most areas of Model Driven Engineering.

Eclipse was originally developed by IBM as the successor of its VisualAge family of tools. Eclipse is now managed by the Eclipse Foundation, an independent not-for-profit consortium of software industry vendors. Many notable software tool vendors have embraced Eclipse as a future framework for their IDEs, among them Adobe, Borland, SAP AG, BEA Systems, and IBM Rational. ...

The EJB specification details how an application server provides:

    * persistence
    * transaction processing
    * concurrency control
    * events using Java Message Service
    * naming and directory services (JNDI)
    * security
    * deployment of software components in an application server
    * remote procedure calls using RMI-IIOP or CORBA

Additionally, the Enterprise JavaBean specification defines the roles played by the EJB container and the EJBs as well as how to deploy the EJBs in a container. ...

The development of the language started in the early 1980s, and was mainly carried out by a team of Ecole des Mines de Paris and INRIA lead by Gérard Berry. Current compilers take Esterel programs and generate C code or hardware (RTL) implementations (VHDL or Verilog).

The language is still under development, with several compilers out. The commercial version of Esterel is the development environment Esterel Studio. The company that develops it (Esterel Technologies) has initated a normalization process with the IEEE. The Esterel v7 Reference Manual Version v7 30 – initial IEEE standardization proposal is publicly available. ...

Description: Extreme Programming (XP) is a software engineering methodology, the most prominent of several agile software development methodologies. Like other agile methodologies, Extreme Programming differs from traditional methodologies primarily in placing a higher value on adaptability than on predictability. Proponents of XP regard ongoing changes to requirements as a natural, inescapable and desirable aspect of software development projects; they believe that being able to adapt to changing requirements at any point during the project life is a more realistic and better approach than attempting to define all requirements at the beginning of a project and then expending effort to control changes to the requirements.

XP prescribes a set of day-to-day practices for managers and developers; the practices are meant to embody and encourage particular values. Proponents believe that the exercise of these practices—which are traditional software engineering practices taken to so-called "extreme" levels—leads to a development process that is more responsive to customer needs ("agile") than traditional methods, while creating software of better quality. ...

Fiber to the x (FTTx)
Name: Fiber to the x (FTTx)
Description: Fiber to the x (FTTX) is a generic term for any network architecture that uses optical fiber to replace all or part of the usual copper local loop used for telecommunications. The four technologies, in order of an increasingly longer fiber loop are:

    * Fiber to the node / neighborhood (FTTN) / Fiber to the cabinet (FTTCab)
    * Fiber to the curb (FTTC) / Fibre to the kerb (FTTK)[1]
    * Fiber to the building (FTTB)
    * Fiber to the home (FTTH)

In the actual deployments, the difference between FTTN and FTTC is quite subtle and is mostly that the latter is nearer the customer than the former.

The broadly-defined term fiber to the premises (FTTP) is sometimes used to describe FTTH and/or FTTB. ...

Financial derivatives interest or experience
Name: Financial derivatives interest or experience
Description: A derivative is a financial contract whose payoffs over time are derived from the performance of assets (such as commodities, shares or bonds), interest rates, exchange rates, or indices (such as a stock market index, consumer price index (CPI) or an index of weather conditions). This performance can determine both the amount and the timing of the payoffs, and these payoffs can be in cash, as well as be the delivery of the underlying asset. This flexibility in underlying and payoff leads to a huge range of different derivatives contracts that are traded in the market. ...

FOCUS
Name: FOCUS
Description: FOCUS is a software product of Information Builders Inc. Originally developed for data handling and analysis on the IBM mainframe, as newer systems were developed and smaller computers became more powerful, the available platforms for FOCUS were extended all the way down to personal computers and in 1997, to the Web in the WebFOCUS product.

Loosely competitive with SAS, for instance, FOCUS never quite reached the same degree of mainstream adoption, perhaps because it had only basic analytical and statistical functions, lacking the wide array of specialized analytic tools which made SAS the standard in fields such as pharmaceutical clinical trials. Instead, FOCUS concentrated on extreme flexibility in data import and export as well as ad hoc end-user reporting. Direct competitors to FOCUS included NOMAD and RAMIS which have since fallen by the wayside while FOCUS has endured. ...

Foreign function interface (FFI)
Name: Foreign function interface (FFI)
Description: A foreign function interface (or FFI) is a mechanism by which a program written in one programming language can call routines or make use of services written in another. The term comes from the specification for Common Lisp, which explicitly refers to the language features for inter-language calls as such; the term is also used officially by the Haskell programming language. Other languages use other terminology (the Ada programming language talks about "language bindings", while Java refers to its FFI as the Java Native Interface, or JNI). Foreign function interface has become generic terminology for mechanisms which provide such services.

It should be noted that despite the name, FFIs are not necessarily restricted to function calls; many FFIs permit method calls on objects; and some even permit migration of non-trivial datatypes and/or objects across the language boundary.

The term foreign function interface is generally not used to describe multi-lingual runtimes such as the Microsoft Common Language Runtime, where a common "substrate" is provided which enables any CLR-compliant language to use services defined in any other. In addition, many distributed computing architectures such as the Java remote method invocation (RMI), RPC, CORBA, and SOAP permit different services to be written in different languages; such architectures are generally not considered FFIs.

In most cases, a FFI is defined by a "higher-level" language, so that it may employ services defined and implemented in a lower level language, typically a systems language like C or C++. This is typically done to either access OS services in the language in which the OS' API is defined, or for performance considerations.

Many FFIs also provide the means for the called language to invoke services in the host language as well. ...

Fortran
Name: Fortran
Description: Fortran (also FORTRAN) is a general-purpose[1], procedural[2], imperative programming language that is especially suited to numeric computation and scientific computing. Originally developed in the 1950s, Fortran is still used extensively in scientific and engineering applications more than half a century later.

Fortran (the name is derived from its original official name, The IBM Mathematical Formula Translating System) encompasses a lineage of versions, each of which evolved to add extensions to the language while retaining compatibility with previous versions. Successive versions have added support for processing of character-based data (FORTRAN 77), array programming (Fortran 90), module-based programming (Fortran 90), object-based programming (Fortran 90), and object-oriented and generic programming (Fortran 2003). ...

FTP
Name: FTP
Description: FTP or File Transfer Protocol is used to transfer data from one computer to another over the Internet, or through a network.

Specifically, FTP is a commonly used protocol for exchanging files over any network that supports the TCP/IP protocol (such as the Internet or an intranet). There are two computers involved in an FTP transfer: a server and a client. The FTP server, running FTP server software, listens on the network for connection requests from other computers. The client computer, running FTP client software, initiates a connection to the server. Once connected, the client can do a number of file manipulation operations such as uploading files to the server, download files from the server, rename or delete files on the server and so on. Any software company or individual programmer is able to create FTP server or client software because the protocol is an open standard. Virtually every computer platform supports the FTP protocol. This allows any computer connected to a TCP/IP based network to manipulate files on another computer on that network regardless of which operating systems are involved (if the computers permit FTP access). There are many existing FTP client and server programs. FTP servers can be set up anywhere between game servers, voice servers, internet hosts, and other physical servers. ...
