  2. Agnostic (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnostic_(data)

    Whenever the data can be treated as agnostic, the coding is simplified, as it only has to deal with one case (the data agnostic case) rather than multiple (PNG, PDF, etc.). When the data must be displayed or acted on, then it is interpreted based on the field definitions and formatting information, and returned to a data agnostic format as soon ...

  3. Schema-agnostic databases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema-agnostic_Databases

    Schema-agnosticism is the property of a database of mapping a query issued with the user terminology and structure, automatically mapping it to the dataset vocabulary. The increase in the size and in the semantic heterogeneity of database schemas bring new requirements for users querying and searching structured data .

  4. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  5. Database abstraction layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_abstraction_layer

    The conceptual level consolidates external concepts and instructions into an intermediate data structure that can be devolved into physical instructions. This layer is the most complex as it spans the external and physical levels. Additionally it needs to span all the supported databases and their quirks, APIs, and problems.

  6. Service Data Objects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_Data_Objects

    Service Data Objects denote the use of language-agnostic data structures that facilitate communication between structural tiers and various service-providing entities. They require the use of a tree structure with a root node and provide traversal mechanisms (breadth/depth-first) that allow client programs to navigate the elements. Objects can ...

  7. Management information base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_information_base

    Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is a standard and flexible notation that describes data structures for representing, encoding, transmitting, and decoding data. It provides a set of formal rules for describing the structure of objects that are independent of machine-specific encoding techniques and is a precise, formal notation that removes ambiguities.

  8. List of terms relating to algorithms and data structures

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_terms_relating_to...

    The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures.

  9. XML schema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML_schema

    The process of checking to see if a XML document conforms to a schema is called validation, which is separate from XML's core concept of syntactic well-formedness.All XML documents must be well-formed, but it is not required that a document be valid unless the XML parser is "validating", in which case the document is also checked for conformance with its associated schema.
