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.
An internal service in IMS used for finding certain IMS resources (CCB, CVB, SMB, CNT, RCNT, LNB, and QAB), most of which represent IMS destinations. For searches other than CVBs and CCBs, if the block is not found, then if requested, a search for an LU 6.2 descriptor is made. If LU 6.2 is not requested, or the search fails, then if ETO is active and the caller of FINDDEST request creation, a call is made to create a new user structure for the given destination name.

(1) An ordered set of key columns of the same table.<br />(2) A key for a file or record format that is composed of more than one key field.
Industry:Software
(1) In OSI, a service primitive issued by a service user to call a function supported by the service provider.<br />(2) The part of a Web address that follows the protocol and server host name. For example, in the address http://www.server.com/rfoul/sched.htm, the request is /rfoul/sched.html.<br />(3) In a request/response interaction, the role performed by a business object that instructs a connector to interact with an application or other programmatic entity.<br />(4) An item that initiates a workflow and the various activities of a workflow.
Industry:Software
(1) An OSI Communications Subsystem file that contains a set of commands that activate OSI Communications Subsystem resources each time OSI Communications Subsystem is started.<br />(2) For DB2 ODBC applications, a file containing values that can be set to adjust the performance of the database manager.

(1) In OSI, a service primitive issued by a service user to complete the procedures associated with a confirmed service. See also command.<br />(2) In SDLC, a frame transmitted by a secondary station. Stations using asynchronous balanced mode send both commands and responses.<br />(3) In SNA, a message unit that acknowledges receipt of a request; a response consists of a response header (RH), a response unit (RU), or both.<br />(4) A message inserted to a logical terminal destination specified by an I/O PCB or an alternate response PCB. When VTAM is used, the term reply is substituted for response because response has a separate meaning in VTAM communications. See also primary request, secondary request.<br />(5) In speech recognition, the character string returned by the recognizer, through DVT_Client, to the state table. The string represents the outcome of a recognition attempt. This is the word or words that the recognizer considers to be the best match with the speech input.<br />(6) In a request/response interaction, a message from a connector to a collaboration that carries the results of a request made by the collaboration. The message can be either a business object or a response code.
Industry:Software
(1) An SQL relational operation that allows retrieval of data from two or more tables based on matching column values. See also equijoin, full outer join, inner join, left outer join, outer join, right outer join, star join.<br />(2) The configuration on an incoming link that determines the behavior of the link.<br />(3) A process element that recombines and synchronizes parallel processing paths after a decision or fork. A join waits for input to arrive at each of its incoming branches before permitting the process to continue.<br />(4) In UML diagrams, a node that models two or more flows of control that unite into a single flow.<br />(5) To become a new member of an entity such as a cluster.
Industry:Software
(1) An undesirable result caused by altering the values of nonlocal variables by a procedure or function.<br />(2) A change in the state of the execution environment.
Industry:Software
(1) In OSI, a unit of standardization specifying a complete group of functions.<br />(2) One of the discrete hardware and software products that provide a terminal user with processing ability.
Industry:Software
(1) An unsolicited event generated by an agent and forwarded to a manager. Traps inform the manager of changes that occur in the network.<br />(2) In the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), a message sent by a managed node (agent function) to a management station to report an exception condition.<br />(3) An unprogrammed, hardware-initiated, conditional jump to a specific address. A trap occurs as a result of an error or certain other conditions. A record is made of the location from which the jump occurred.<br />(4) A message that reports a problem or a significant event.<br />(5) A special statement used to catch signals within the z/OS shell.(OSF)<br />(6) In REXX, to recognize that a currently enabled condition occurred and to perform the CALL or SIGNAL instruction specified when the condition trap was enabled.
Industry:Software
(1) In OSI, an ASN.1 type defined by reference to one or more other ASN.1 types.<br />(2) A data type that is a named collection of attributes (standard data types or other structured types). A structured type allows for greater semantic control than a predefined type allows. See also method.
