  2. Front-end processor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-end_processor

    A front-end processor (FEP), or a communications processor, is a small-sized computer which interfaces to the host computer, a number of networks, such as SNA, or a number of peripheral devices, such as terminals, disk units, printers and tape units. Data is transferred between the host computer and the front-end processor using a high-speed ...

  3. Front-end loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-end_loading

    Front-end loading (FEL), also referred to as Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), Front End Planning (FEP), pre-project planning (PPP), and early project planning, is the process for conceptual development of projects in processing industries such as upstream oil and gas, petrochemical, natural gas refining, extractive metallurgy, waste-to-energy, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.

  4. Frontend and backend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontend_and_Backend

    In software development, frontend refers to the presentation layer that users interact with, while backend involves the data management and processing behind the scenes. In the client–server model, the client is usually considered the frontend, handling user-facing tasks, and the server is the backend, managing data and logic.

  5. Gateway (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_(telecommunications)

    A gateway is a piece of networking hardware or software used in telecommunications networks that allows data to flow from one discrete network to another. Gateways are distinct from routers or switches in that they communicate using more than one protocol to connect multiple networks [1] [2] and can operate at any of the seven layers of the OSI model.

  6. API management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_management

    A server that acts as an API front-end, receives API requests, enforces throttling and security policies, passes requests to the back-end service and then passes the response back to the requester. [2] A gateway often includes a transformation engine to orchestrate and modify the requests and responses on the fly. A gateway can also provide ...

  7. Front-end engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front-end_engineering

    Front-End Engineering (FEE), or Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), is an engineering design approach used to control project expenses and thoroughly plan a project before a fix bid quote is submitted. [1] It may also be referred to as Pre-project planning (PPP), front-end loading (FEL), feasibility analysis, or early project planning.

  8. Gateway address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_address

    The gateway is on the same network as end devices. The gateway address must have the same subnet mask as host devices. Each host on the network uses the same gateway. The gateway should have a static address, as changing the address would cause packets not to be delivered. The gateway is typically assigned either the highest or lowest network ...

  9. Systems Network Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_Network_Architecture

    End user terminals are typically PCs with 3270 emulation software that is defined to the SNA gateway. The VTAM/NCP PU type 2 definition becomes a Switched Major Node that can be local to VTAM (without an NCP), and a "Line" connection can be defined using various possible solutions (such as a Token Ring interface on the 3745, a 3172 Lan Channel ...
