| open path | tracé ouvert (A vector path whose beginning and end points are not the same) |
| open shortest path first A routing protocol for Internet Protocol (IP) networks. OSPF allows a router to calculate the shortest path to each node for sending messages.

| path segment | segment de tracé (A portion of a line, defined by its beginning and ending points) |

| recovery path | chemin de récupération (The sequence of data and log backups that have brought a database to a particular point in time (known as a recovery point). A recovery path is a specific set of transformations that have evolved the database over time, yet have maintained the consistency of the database. A recovery path describes a range of LSNs from a start point (LSN,GUID) to an end point (LSN,GUID). The range of LSNs in a recovery path can traverse one or more recovery branches from start to end) |
| relative path | chemin d'accès relatif (A path that is implied by the current working directory. When a user enters a command that refers to a file, if the full pathname is not entered, the current working directory becomes the relative path of the file referred to) |

Paths can be made from a combination of straight lines and curves, each of which may be made up of many connecting points. All paths can be stroked or filled) |
| virtual path | chemin d'accès virtuel (A sequence of names that is used to locate a file and that has the same form as a pathname in the file system but is not necessarily the actual sequence of directory names under which the file is located. The part of a URL that follows the server name is a virtual path. For example, if the directory c:\bar\sinister\forces\distance on the server miles is shared on the local area network at foo.com under the name \\miles\baz and contains the file elena.html, that file may be returned by a Web request for http://miles.foo.com/baz/elena.html) |
| XML Path Language | langage XPath (A language used to address parts of an XML document. XPath also provides basic facilities for manipulation of strings, numbers, and Boolean values) |
