(1) A named entity within query management that can be assigned a value used for communications between an application program and query management. The entity is accessible from both the application program and query management. See also runtime variable.<br />(2) A symbol defined in one program module that is used in other program modules that are independently compiled.<br />(3) A variable used to contain information for the use of actions. The values of global variables can be extracted from a host screen or elsewhere, and can be used in templates, transformations, macros, Integration Objects, or business logic. A global variable can be a single value or an array, and it can be shared with other applications sharing the same session.<br />(4) A variable that is used to hold and manipulate values assigned to it during translation and that is shared across maps and across document translations. One of the three types of variables supported by the Data Interchange Services mapping command language.<br />(5) A representation of a changeable value that can be accessed and modified by SQL statements that are running within the same session scope. See also special register, variable, session global variable, created global variable, built-in global variable.

(1) A computer that is connected to a network and provides an access point to that network. The host can be a client, a server, or both a client and server simultaneously. See also server, client.<br />(2) In a cooperative processing environment, the system running the server program with which the CoOperative Development Environment/400 session communicates.<br />(3) In TCP/IP, any system that has at least one Internet address associated with it.<br />(4) In performance profiling, a machine that owns processes that are being profiled. See also server.<br />(5) The controlling or highest-level system in a data communications configuration.

(1) A permanent global variable defined by WebSphere Voice Response for use by state tables. Many system variables are loaded with values when the state table is initialized. Some values are taken from system parameters. See also input parameter, local variable.<br />(2) A user-defined keyword and value pair that can be used to test and track the status of network resources. System variables can be referred to wherever event-data substitution is allowed.

(1) A persistent storage area for data and other application resources.<br />(2) A collection of information about the queue managers that are members of a cluster. This information includes queue manager names, their locations, their channels, what queues they host, and so on.<br />(3) A VSAM data set on which the states of BTS processes are stored. When a process is not executing under the control of BTS, its state (and the states of its constituent activities) are preserved by being written to a repository data set. The states of all processes of a particular process-type (and of their activity instances) are stored on the same repository data set. Records for multiple process-types can be written to the same repository.<br />(4) A persistent storage area where packages are available for download.
Industry:Software
(1) A physical sheet of paper or other medium on which data is printed.<br />(2) In query management, an object that describes how to format the data for printing or displaying a report.<br />(3) A display screen, printed document, or file with defined spaces for information to be inserted.<br />(4) A partially-filled message containing data that can be copied for a new message of the same message type.<br />(5) A Notes database element that controls how a user edits, displays, and prints documents.

This allows the transmission of all 256 possible byte values.
Industry:Software
(1) A condition under which a transaction cannot proceed because it is dependent on exclusive resources that are locked by another transaction, which in turn is dependent on exclusive resources in use by the original transaction.<br />(2) Unresolved contention for the use of resources.<br />(3) A condition in which two independent threads of control are blocked, each waiting for the other to take some action. Deadlock often arises from adding synchronization mechanisms to avoid race conditions.
Industry:Software
(1) A piece of equipment. Devices can be workstations, printers, disk drives, tape units, or remote systems.<br />(2) In the AIX operating system, a valuator, button, or the keyboard. Buttons have values of 0 or 1 (up or down); valuators return values in a range, and the keyboard returns ASCII values.<br />(3) In UML modeling, a type of node that represents a physical computational resource in a system, such as an application server.
