X server
An X server is a server of connections to X terminal in a
distributed network that uses the X Window System. From the terminal
user's point-of-view, the X server may seem like a server of
applications in multiple windows. Actually, the applications in the
remote computer with the X server are making client request for the
services of a windows manager that runs in each terminal. X servers
(as part of the X Window System) typically are installed in a
UNIX-based operating system in a mainframe, minicomputer, or
workstation.
X terminal
An X terminal is typically a diskless terminal especially designed
to provide a low-cost user interface for applications that run in a
network X server as part of a distributed X Window System.
Typically, X terminals are connected to a server running a
UNIX-based operating system in a mainframe, minicomputer, or
workstation.
X Window System
The X Window System is an open, cross-platform, client/server system
for managing a windowed graphical user interface in a distributed
network. In X Window, the client-server relationship is reversed
from the usual. Remote computers contain applications that make
client requests for display management services in each PC or
workstation. X Window is primarily used in networks of
interconnected mainframes, minicomputers, and workstations. It is
also used on the X terminal, which is essentially a workstation with
display management capabilities but without its own applications.
(The X terminal can be seen as a predecessor of the network PC or
thin client computer.)
X.400
A set of standards describing how e-mail should be delivered. X.400
is an alternative to SMTP, and is generally more capable but harder
to understand and use.
X.500
Another complex standard, this time for managing directories of
people, either on the World Wide Web or on private networks.
Xalan
Xalan is a specification for transforming Extensible Markup Language
(XML) documents into Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) or other XML
document types.
XBRL / eXtensible Business Reporting Language
XBRL is an XML-based language being developed specifically for the
automation of business information requirements, such as the
preparation, sharing, and analysis of financial reports, statements,
and audit schedules.
xDSL / x Digital Subscriber Line
A family of bandwidth-efficient modulation techniques, developed to
achieve extremely high data transfer rates over twisted- pair
cables. While the letter "X" represents a variable, DSL stands for
"Digital Subscriber Line". XDSL techniques may offer several
benefits such as, capability to offer high-speed data services to
customers, low cost by using existing infrastructure and switching
congestion relief caused by existing data users.
Xeon
Xeon is a Pentium microprocessor from Intel for use in "mid-range"
enterprise servers and workstations. Xeon is replacing the Pentium
Pro as Intel's main enterprise microchip. Xeon is designed for
Internet and large transactional database servers as well as for
engineering, graphics, and multimedia applications that require
moving a lot of data around quickly. Xeon is the high end of the
Pentium line (Celeron is the low end).
Xerces
Xerces is a set of parsers compatible with Extensible Markup
Language (XML). Xerces parsers are available for Java and C++,
implementing World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) XML, Document Object
Model (DOM), and Simple API for XML (SAX) standards.
XHTML / eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language
XHTML is a reformulation of HTML 4.0 as an application of the
Extensible Markup Language(XML).
XLink
A package of hyperlinking functionality that comes in two parts.
"XLink" governs how links are inserted into an XML document;
"XPointer" determines the identifier that goes on a URL when linking
to an XML document from somewhere else, such as another Web page.
XMI / XML Metadata Interchange
XMI is a proposed use of the XML that is intended to provide a
standard way for programmers and other users to exchange information
about metadata.
XML / eXtensible Markup Language
A way of describing and sharing data on networks. Like its cousin
HTML, XML consists of a set of TAGS that describes a chunk of data.
The resemblance more or less ends there. XML is designed to describe
the content of a page in terms of the type of data it contains,
rather than the way that data should look.
XPath
XPath is a language that describes a way to locate and process items
in xML documents by using an addressing syntax based on a path
through the document's logical structure or hierarchy.
XPointer
XPointer is a language for locating data within an XML document
based on properties such as location within the document, character
content, and attribute values. XPointer consists of a description
that comes after the # symbol in a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
In HTML, the # symbol enables linking to a specific marked point
within an HTML page.
XQL / XML Query Language
XQL provides a tool for finding and/or selecting out specific items
in the data collection in an XML file or set of files. It is based
on the pattern syntax used in the XSL and is proposed as an
extension to it.
XSL / eXtensible Style Language
The style standard for XML. Like CSS, it specifies the presentation
and appearance of an XML document.
XSLT / XSL Translation
XSLT is a standard way to describe how to transform (change) the
structure of an XML document into an XML document with a different
structure.
