Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
A version of RMI implemented to use the CORBA IIOP protocol. RMI over IIOP provides interoperability with CORBA objects implemented in any language if all the remote interfaces are originally defined as RMI interfaces.

Uniform resource identifier. A globally unique identifier for an abstract or physical resource. A URL is a kind of URI that specifies the retrieval protocol (http or https for Web applications) and physical location of a resource (host name and host-relative path). A URN is another type of URI.

To verify the identity of a user, device, or other entity in a computer system, often a prerequisite to allowing access to resources in a system. Based on definition found at search Database.com see http://searchdatabase.techtarget.com

Threads use a spin lock to test a lock variable over and over until some other task releases the lock. That is, the waiting thread spins on the lock until the lock is cleared. Then, the waiting thread sets the lock while inside the critical region. After work in the critical region is complete, the thread clears the spin lock so another thread can enter the critical region. The difference between a spin lock and a mutex is that an attempt to get a mutex held by someone else will block and release the LWP; a spin lock does not release the LWP. See also mutex lock.

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
A value specified in an enterprise bean's deployment descriptor that is used by the EJB container to control the transaction scope when the enterprise bean's methods are invoked. A transaction attribute can have the following values: Required, RequiresNew, Supports, NotSupported, Mandatory, or Never.

The XML file that contains one or more asant targets. A target is a set of tasks you want to be executed. When starting asant, you can select which targets you want to have executed. When no target is given, the project's default target is executed.

A valid XML document, in addition to being well formed, conforms to all the constraints imposed by a DTD. It does not contain any tags that are not permitted by the DTD, and the order of the tags conforms to the DTD's specifications.

The XDBus specification uses low-impedance GTL (Gunning Transceiver Logic) transceiver signalling to drive longer backplanes at higher clock rates. XDBus supports a large number of CPUs with multiple interleaved memory banks for increased throughput. XDBus uses a packet switched protocol with split requests and responses for more efficient bus utilization. XDBus also defines an interleaving scheme so that one, two or four separate bus data paths can be used as a single backplane for increased throughput. XDBus supports write-invalidate, write-update and competitive-caching coherency schemes, and has several congestion control mechanisms. See also cache, coherence, competitive-caching, write-invalidate, write-update.
