Company Profile:
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.
In DB2 Net Search Extender, a collection of significant terms extracted from text documents. Each term is associated with the document from which it was extracted.
Industry:Software
In LANs, a bridging method that uses the routing information field in the IEEE 802.5 medium access control (MAC) header of a frame to determine which rings or token-ring segments the frame must transit. The routing information field is inserted into the MAC header by the source node. The information in the routing information field is derived from explorer packets generated by the source host.
Industry:Software
In CICS/VSE, a partition allocated for a program such as VSE/POWER that provides services for and communicates with programs in other partitions of the system's virtual address spaces. See also private partition.
Industry:Software
In DB2 or i5/OS, data that is associated with both a single-byte character set and a double-byte character set.
Industry:Software
In LANs, a format for the transmission of medium access control (MAC) addresses for token-ring adapters. In noncanonical format, the most significant (leftmost) bit of each address byte is transmitted first. See also canonical address.
Industry:Software
In CICS/VSE, A routine of the system that receives control when the operator presses the Attention key. The routine sets up the console for the input of a command, reads the command, and initiates the system service requested by the command.
Industry:Software
In DB2 Spatial Extender and DB2 Geodetic Extender, a reference system that uses latitude and longitude to define locations on the surface of a sphere or spheroid.
Industry:Software
In LANs, a method by which the sending station determines the route the frame will follow and includes the routing information with the frame. Bridges then read the routing information to determine whether they should forward the frame.
Industry:Software
In CICS/VSE, an area of storage that is common to all address spaces in the system. VSE/ESA has two shared areas. The first shared area (24 bit) is allocated at the start of the address space and contains the supervisor, the SVA (for system programs and the system GETVIS area), and the shared partitions.The second shared area (31 bit) is allocated at the end of the address space and contains the SVA (31 bit) for system programs and the system GETVIS area. See also private area.
Industry:Software
In DB2 Spatial Extender and DB2 Geodetic Extender, a set of parameters that includes coordinates that define the maximum possible extent of space that is referenced by a given range of coordinates, an identifier of the coordinate system from which the coordinates are derived, and numbers that convert coordinates into positive integers to improve performance when the coordinates are processed.
