Founded in 1946, the IEEE Computer Society is a professional organization for computing professionals. Based in Washington, DC, it's the largest of IEEE’s 38 societies organized under the IEEE Technical Activities Board. The IEEE Computer Society is dedicated to advancing the theory, practice, and ...
(1) A model that accepts the same inputs and produces the same outputs as a given system.~(2) The process of developing or using a model as in (1).
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A model that behaves or operates like a given system when provided a set of controlled inputs.~(2). The process of developing or using a model as in (1).
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A modification made directly to an object program without reassembling or recompiling from the source program.~(2) A modification made to a source program as a last-minute fix or afterthought.~(3) Any modification to a source or object program.~(4) To perform a modification as in (I), (2), or (3).
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A name or identifier assigned to a computer program statement to enable other statements to refer to that statement.~(2) One or more characters, within or attached to a set of data, that identify or describe the data.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A period of time during which a set of events is completed.~(2) A set of operations that is repeated regularly in the same sequence, possibly with variations in each repetition; for example, a computer's read cycle.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A process in which a software module calls itself.~(2) The process of defining or generating a process or data structure in terms of itself.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A program unit that is discrete and identifiable with respect to compiling, combining with other units, and loading; for example, the input to, or output from, an assembler, compiler, linkage editor, or executive routine.~(2) A logically separable part of a program. Note: The terms "module," "component," and "unit" are often used interchangeably or defined to be subelements of one another in different ways depending upon the context. The relationship of these terms is not yet standardized.
Industry:Computer; Software
(1) A routine, often part of a compiler, that transforms a computer program from some intermediate level of representation (often the output of a root compiler or parser) into a form that is closer to the language of the machine on which the program will execute.~(2) A software tool that accepts as input the requirements or design for a computer program and produces source code that implements the requirements or design.
