Project stakeholderProject stakeholders are persons or entities who have an interest in a given project. According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), the term project stakeholder refers to "an individual, group, or organization, who may affect, be affected by, or perceive itself to be affected by a decision, activity, or outcome of a project, program, or portfolio. ISO 21500 uses a similar definition.
Asynchrony (computer programming)Asynchrony, in computer programming, refers to the occurrence of events independent of the main program flow and ways to deal with such events. These may be "outside" events such as the arrival of signals, or actions instigated by a program that take place concurrently with program execution, without the program blocking to wait for results. Asynchronous input/output is an example of the latter case of asynchrony, and lets programs issue commands to storage or network devices that service these requests while the processor continues executing the program.
Java SEJava Platform, Standard Edition, ou Java SE (anciennement Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition, ou J2SE), est une spécification de la plateforme Java d'Oracle, destinée typiquement aux applications pour poste de travail. La plateforme est composée, outre les API de base : des API spécialisées dans le poste client (JFC et donc Swing, AWT et Java2D) ; des API d'usage général comme JAXP (pour le parsing XML) ; de JDBC (pour la gestion des bases de données).
Project initiation documentationThe project initiation documentation (PID) is one of the most significant artifacts in project management, which provides the foundation for the business project. The project initiation documentation bundles the information, which was acquired through the starting up a project (SU) and initiating a project (IP) processes in a PRINCE2 controlled project environment. PRINCE2's 2009 renaming "document" to "documentation" indicates a collection of documentation that has been collected up creating a project rather than all the information in the system.
Free Java implementationsFree Java implementations are software projects that implement Oracle's Java technologies and are distributed under free software licences, making them free software. Sun released most of its Java source code as free software in May 2007, so it can now almost be considered a free Java implementation. Java implementations include compilers, runtimes, class libraries, etc. Advocates of free and open source software refer to free or open source Java virtual machine software as free runtimes or free Java runtimes.
Design patternA design pattern is the re-usable form of a solution to a design problem. The idea was introduced by the architect Christopher Alexander and has been adapted for various other disciplines, particularly software engineering. An organized collection of design patterns that relate to a particular field is called a pattern language. This language gives a common terminology for discussing the situations designers are faced with. The elements of this language are entities called patterns.
Java packageA Java package organizes Java classes into namespaces, providing a unique namespace for each type it contains. Classes in the same package can access each other's package-private and protected members. In general, a package can contain the following kinds of types: classes, interfaces, enumerations, and annotation types. A package allows a developer to group classes (and interfaces) together. These classes will all be related in some way – they might all have to do with a specific application or perform a specific set of tasks.
Object-oriented designObject-oriented design (OOD) is the process of planning a system of interacting objects for the purpose of solving a software problem. It is one approach to software design. An object contains encapsulated data and procedures grouped together to represent an entity. The 'object interface' defines how the object can be interacted with. An object-oriented program is described by the interaction of these objects. Object-oriented design is the discipline of defining the objects and their interactions to solve a problem that was identified and documented during object-oriented analysis.
Bytecode JavaLe bytecode Java est un bytecode destiné à regrouper des instructions exécutables par une machine virtuelle Java. Par extension, il désigne un flux d'octets binaire au format d'une classe Java. Ce flux est habituellement le résultat de la compilation d'un code source, ce code source n'étant pas obligatoirement écrit en langage Java. Ce bytecode peut être exécuté sous de nombreux systèmes d'exploitation par une machine virtuelle Java.
Objet (informatique)En informatique, un objet est un conteneur symbolique et autonome qui contient des informations et des mécanismes concernant un sujet, manipulés dans un programme. Le sujet est souvent quelque chose de tangible appartenant au monde réel. C'est le concept central de la programmation orientée objet (POO). En programmation orientée objet, un objet est créé à partir d'un modèle appelé classe ou prototype, dont il hérite les comportements et les caractéristiques.
Visiteur (patron de conception)En programmation orientée objet et en génie logiciel, le patron de conception comportemental visiteur est une manière de séparer un algorithme d'une structure de données. Le Gang of Four définit le visiteur comme: Représentant [ing] une opération à effectuer sur des éléments d'une structure d'objet. Visitor permet de définir une nouvelle opération sans changer les classes des éléments sur lesquels elle opère.
