Sun Microsystems is a multinational vendor of computers, computer software and hardware, and information technology services.
In general, an XML structure in which one or more elements contains text intermixed with subelements. See also data.
Industry:Computer
A framework for building server-side user interfaces for Web applications written in the Java programming language.
Industry:Computer
In DR User's Guide, "assign" means the operation to set operating conditions of a system board, and to register it to be DCL (Domain Component List) database. This operation makes the system board available to domains.
Industry:Computer
A fragment of assembly language code that is substituted for the function call it defines, during the inlining pass of Sun Studio compilers. Used (for example) by the math library in in-line template files (libm.il) in order to access hardware implementations of trigonometric functions and other elementary functions from C programs.
Industry:Computer
In an XML document, the part that occurs after the prolog, including the root element and everything it contains.
Industry:Computer
A form of asynchronous parallelism where simultaneous processing of different data occurs without lock-step coordination. In SPMD, processors can execute different instructions at the same time; such as, different branches of an if-then-else statement.
Industry:Computer
In an XML document, text that is ignored unless the parser is specifically told to recognize it.
Industry:Computer
A flow of control within a single UNIX process address space. Solaris threads provide a light-weight form of concurrent task, allowing multiple threads of control in a common user-address space, with minimal scheduling and communication overhead. Threads share the same address space, file descriptors (when one thread opens a file, the other threads can read it), data structures, and operating system state. A thread has a program counter and a stack to keep track of local variables and return addresses. Threads interact through the use of shared data and thread synchronization operations. See also bound thread, light-weight processes, multithreading, unbound thread.
Industry:Computer
In a uniprocessor system, a large number of threads appear to be running in parallel. This is accomplished by rapidly switching between threads.
