| comp., MS | client/server architecture | 主從架構 (A model of computing whereby client applications running on a desktop or personal computer access information on remote servers or host computers. The client portion of the application is typically optimized for user interaction, whereas the server portion provides centralized, multiuser functionality) |
| comp., MS | Distributed Relational Database Architecture | 分散式關聯資料庫架構 (A connection protocol for distributed relational database processing used by IBM relational database products that comprises protocols for communication between an application and a remote database, and communication between databases. DRDA also provides the connections for remote and distributed processing. The Distributed Data Management Architecture provides the base architecture for DRDA) |
| comp., MS | enterprise service-oriented architecture | 企業服務導向架構 (The SAP blueprint for services-based, enterprise-scaled business solutions that offer increased levels of adaptability, flexibility and openness required to reduce total cost of ownership) |
| comp., MS | Extended Industry Standard Architecture | 延伸工業標準架構 (" A bus standard for the connection of add-on cards to a PC motherboard, such as video cards, internal modems, sound cards, drive controllers, and cards that support other peripherals. EISA was introduced in 1988 by a consortium of nine computer industry companies. The companies--AST Research, Compaq, Epson, Hewlett-Packard, NEC, Olivetti, Tandy, Wyse, and Zenith--were referred to collectively as "the Gang of Nine". EISA maintains compatibility with the earlier Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) but provides for additional features introduced by IBM in its Micro Channel Architecture bus standard. EISA has a 32-bit data path, and it uses connectors that can accept ISA cards. However, EISA cards are compatible only with EISA systems. EISA can operate at much higher frequencies than the ISA bus and provides much faster data throughput than ISA. ") |
| comp., MS | Industry Standard Architecture | 工業標準架構 (A bus design specification that allows components to be added as cards plugged into standard expansion slots in IBM Personal Computers and compatibles. Originally introduced in the IBM PC/XT with an 8-bit data path, ISA was expanded in 1984, when IBM introduced the PC/AT, to permit a 16-bit data path. A 16-bit ISA slot actually consists of two separate 8-bit slots mounted end-to-end so that a single 16-bit card plugs into both slots. An 8-bit expansion card can be inserted and used in a 16-bit slot (it occupies only one of the two slots), but a 16-bit expansion card cannot be used in an 8-bit slot) |
| comp., MS | infrastructure architecture | 基礎結構架構 (The topology of the deployment environment including protocols, security levels, and services. This architecture provides a logical mapping to the deployment environment, such as the datacenter) |
| comp., MS | Micro Channel Architecture | 微通道架構 (The design of the bus in IBM PS/2 computers (except Models 25 and 30). The Micro Channel is electrically and physically incompatible with the IBM PC/AT bus. Unlike the PC/AT bus, the Micro Channel functions as either a 16-bit or a 32-bit bus. The Micro Channel also can be driven independently by multiple bus master processors) |
| comp., MS | NUMA architecture | NUMA 結構 (" A multiprocessor architecture that divides a system into nodes. Each node might include one or more processors, some memory, and a bus. A node's memory is "local" to its processors, and the processors can access the memory relatively quickly. Processors in one node can also access memory in different ("distant") nodes, but access time is slower.") |
| comp., MS | Office Viewing Architecture | Office 檢視結構 (The end-to-end architecture that powers the Word and PowerPoint viewing experience in the browser. It includes the front-end machines to service the browser requests and the back-end machines which convert the document from a DOC or PPT file to PNG, each representing a page of your document) |
| comp., MS | segmented memory architecture | 分段記憶體結構 (A memory-access technique typified by Intel 80x86 processors. Memory is divided into 64-KB segments in this architecture for addressing locations under the 16-bit address scheme; 32-bit schemes can address memory in segments as large as 4 GB) |
| comp., MS | Service Oriented Architecture | 服務導向架構 (A software architecture that uses policies, practices, and frameworks to enable application functionality to be provided and consumed as sets of services. These services are published at a level of granularity relevant to service consumers) |
| comp., MS | solution architecture | 方案架構 (The architecture of the software including its structure, entry points, trust areas, and class and component relationships) |
| comp., MS | Systems Network Architecture | 系統網路結構 (A network model devised by IBM to enable IBM products, including mainframes, terminals, and peripherals, to communicate and exchange data) |
