A unit of XML data, delimited by tags. An XML element can enclose other elements.
Industry:Computer
A unit of activity characterized by a single sequential thread of execution, a current state, and an associated set of system resources.
Industry:Computer
The standard for binary floating-point arithmetic developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, published in 1985.
Industry:Computer
A text-based document containing static text and JSP elements that describes how to process a request to create a response. A JSP page is translated into and handles requests as a servlet.
Industry:Computer
The runtime portion of a J2EE product. A J2EE server provides EJB or Web containers or both.

Industry:Computer
The process of removing redundancy by modularizing, as with subroutines, and of removing superfluous differences by reducing them to a common denominator. For example, line endings from different systems are normalized by reducing them to a single new line, and multiple whitespace characters are normalized to one space.
Industry:Computer
A system-level software driver that is used by an EJB container or an application client to connect to an enterprise information system. A resource adapter typically is specific to an enterprise information system. It is available as a library and is used within the address space of the server or client using it. A resource adapter plugs in to a container. The application components deployed on the container then use the client API (exposed by the adapter) or tool-generated high-level abstractions to access the underlying enterprise information system. The resource adapter and EJB container collaborate to provide the underlying mechanisms-transactions, security, and connection pooling-for connectivity to the enterprise information system.
