The difference in the length of a line before and after justification.
Industry:Software; Computer
The priority order in which classes of glyphs are processed during justification.
Industry:Software; Computer
An extension-bar glyph that is added to certain Arabic glyphs during justification.
Industry:Software; Computer
Key distribution center. In Kerberos, the sum of two separate software processes: the ticket-granting server and the authentication server.
Industry:Software; Computer
The kernel shim used for communication with a remote debugger ( gdb ).
Industry:Software; Computer
A service that has been configured to accept Kerberos tickets for identification.
Industry:Software; Computer
An industry-standard protocol created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to provide authentication over a network. It is a symmetric-key, server-based protocol and is used widely in Macintosh, Windows, and UNIX networks.
Industry:Software; Computer
A credential used to identify a user who has been previously authenticated so that reauthentication is not needed. In Kerberos, the KDC (key distribution center) issues the user a TGT (ticket-granting ticket) when they first authenticate. Thereafter, when they need to access a secure server, they present the ticket-granting ticket to the KDC and are issued a ticket, which they present to the secure server as identification. See also authentication, identification.
Industry:Software; Computer
A utility available through the Keychain Access utility that shows any Kerberos tickets in use on the system and enables the user to renew or destroy a ticket or change a ticket’s password.
Industry:Software; Computer
(1) The complete Mac OS X core operating-system environment, which includes Mach, BSD, the I/O Kit, file systems, and networking components. Also called the kernel environment. (2) In image processing, a grid of numbers used in both convolution and morphological operations (such as dilation and erosion). It is typically represented as a square grid (or matrix) whose height and width are both odd, such as a 3 x 3 grid. Each cell in the grid contains a number. An image process that uses a kernel typically takes these numbers within the kernel and applies them to the image by undergoing a series of arithmetic operations between the kernel values and the image pixel intensity values.
