JINGLE

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

Jingle is basically an extension to the Jabber/XMPP protocol, this is to allow for peer-to-peer (p2p) signalling, and thereby multimedia interactions such as voice or video.

It was designed by Google and the Jabber Software Foundation, and uses Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) for NAT traversal. The libjingle library, used by Google Talk to implement Jingle, has been released to the public under a Berkeley-style license.

Public switched telephone network

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

It is the focuses of public circuit-switched telephone networks worldwide, initially it was a network of fixed-line analog telephone systems whereas the PSTN is now completely digital which now includes mobile and fixed landlines. It is mainly governed by technical standards at the creation by the ITU-T an also uses E.163/E.164 addresses for addressing.

Internet Control Message Protocol

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

It is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite which is mainly used by network computer operating systems to send error messages, it also differs in purpose from TCP and UDP and is usually not used by user network applications. One of the exceptions is the ping tool, which sends Echo Request messages to identify whether a host is reachable and since when the packets take to get to and from that host.

What is ETRN?

Wednesday, November 8th, 2006

They are data set types which are made use by VSAM.data storage data system and are accessed on the basis of file position.

In a KSDS, a special key is given to the data file and can be located manually in a different index file and can be of any length.

Relative Record & Key Sequenced Data Set

Wednesday, November 8th, 2006

These are data set types which are mainly used by VSAM.data storage data system. These are accessed on the basis of the file position. In a KSDS, a data file is given a special key, files can be located physically in a separate index file and it can be of any length.

Virtual Storage Access Method

Wednesday, November 8th, 2006

It was first used in OS/VS2 operating system which is basically IBM disk file storage program, it mainly has four access methods -

a) Key Sequenced Data Set
b) Relative Record Data Set
c) Entry Sequenced Data Set
d) Linear Data Set

They are arranged in fixed-size blocks named as Control Intervals (in byte) and then into Control Areas (disk tracks/cylinders).

The IDCAMS is used to define or perhaps delete VSAM datasets. Custom programs can access VSAM datasets in JCL (Job Control Language) or CICS (Customer Information Control Systems).
