Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
The board is being actively used by the domain to which it is assigned. To remove and install a board which is being actively used by the domain, the service provider must DR the board out of the domain. Then, the service provider can remove the board.
Industry:Computer
A reference to an entity that is substituted for the reference when the XML document is parsed. It can reference a predefined entity such as < or reference one that is defined in the DTD. In the XML data, the reference could be to an entity that is defined in the local subset of the DTD or to an external XML file (an external entity). The DTD can also carve out a segment of DTD specifications and give it a name so that it can be reused (included) at multiple points in the DTD by defining a parameter entity.
Industry:Computer
A quantitative measure of the density of representable numbers. For example, in a binary floating point format that has a precision of 53 significant bits, there are 253 representable numbers between any two adjacent powers of two (within the range of normal numbers). Do not confuse precision with accuracy, which expresses how closely one number approximates another.
Industry:Computer
Provides access to a set of shared resources. A resource manager participates in transactions that are externally controlled and coordinated by a transaction manager. A resource manager typically is in a different address space or on a different machine from the clients that access it. Note: An enterprise information system is referred to as a resource manager when it is mentioned in the context of resource and transaction management.
Industry:Computer
A mechanism for enforcing a policy for serializing access to shared data. A thread or process uses a particular lock in order to gain access to shared memory protected by that lock. The locking and unlocking of data is voluntary in the sense that only the programmer knows what must be locked. See also data race, mutual exclusion, mutex lock, semaphore lock, single-lock strategy, spin lock.
Industry:Computer
One of two interfaces for an enterprise bean. The remote interface defines the business methods callable by a client.
Industry:Computer
A mechanism for caches to communicate with each other as well as with main memory. A dedicated connection (circuit) is established between caches or between cache and main memory. While a circuit is in place no other traffic can travel over the bus.
Industry:Computer
A mechanism defined by J2SE, and used by the J2EE platform to express the programming restrictions imposed on application component developers.
Industry:Computer
Processes that execute in parallel in multiple processors or asynchronously on a single processor. Concurrent processes can interact with each other, and one process can suspend execution pending receipt of information from another process or the occurrence of an external event. See also process, sequential processes.
