Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
An entity that consists of DTD specifications, as distinct from a general entity. A parameter entity defined in the DTD can then be referenced at other points, thereby eliminating the need to recode the definition at each location it is used.
Industry:Computer
An enterprise bean that is created by a client and that usually exists only for the duration of a single client-server session. A session bean performs operations, such as calculations or database access, for the client. Although a session bean can be transactional, it is not recoverable should a system crash occur. Session bean objects either can be stateless or can maintain conversational state across methods and transactions. If a session bean maintains state, then the EJB container manages this state if the object must be removed from memory. However, the session bean object itself must manage its own persistent data.
Industry:Computer
An authentication mechanism in which a Web server authenticates an entity via a user name and password obtained using the Web application's built-in authentication mechanism.
Industry:Computer
An authentication mechanism in which a Web container provides an application-specific form for logging in. This form of authentication uses Base64 encoding and can expose user names and passwords unless all connections are over SSL.
Industry:Computer
This computer model specifies what happens to data, and ignores instruction order. That is, computations move forward by nature of availability of data values instead of the availability of instructions. See also control flow model, demand-driven dataflow.
Industry:Computer
The von Neumann model of a computer. This model specifies flow of control; that is, which instruction is executed at each step of a program. All Sun workstations are instances of the von Neumann model. See also data flow model, demand-driven dataflow.
Industry:Computer
A unit of XML data, delimited by tags. An XML element can enclose other elements.
Industry:Computer
The very first thing in an XML document, which declares it as XML. The minimal declaration is <?xml version="1.0"?>. The declaration is part of the document prolog.
