| comp., MS, Braz. | DCOM, Distributed COM | DCOM (The version of Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM) specification that stipulates how components communicate over Windows-based networks. It permits the distribution of different components for a single application across two or more networked computers, running an application distributed across a network so that the distribution of components is not apparent to the user, and remotely displaying an application. Because DCOM is language-neutral, any language that uses COM components can also produce DCOM applications) |

| comp., MS, Braz. | Distributed Computing Environment | Distributed Computing Environment (A set of standards from the Open Group (formerly the Open Software Foundation) for development of distributed applications that can operate on more than one platform. One of two types of hardware connected by an RS-232-C serial connection, the other being a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) device. A DCE is an intermediary device that often transforms input from a DTE before sending it to a recipient. A modem, for example, is a DCE that modulates data from a microcomputer (DTE) and sends it along a telephone connection) |
| comp., MS, Braz. | Distributed Relational Database Architecture | Distributed Relational Database Architecture (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, Braz. | Distributed Transaction Coordinator | distributed transaction coordinator (A service, integrated with COM+, that makes distributed transactions work. DTC makes it possible to scale transactions from one to many computers without the need for special code) |
| comp., MS, Braz. | Fiber Distributed Data Interface | Fiber Distributed Data Interface (A standard developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for high-speed fiber-optic LANs (local area networks). FDDI provides specifications for transmission rates of 100 megabits (100 million bits) per second on networks based on the token ring standard) |
