B- built-in pattern
- A pattern that covers a set of commonly encountered message flow
scenarios and that is packaged and released with WebSphere Message Broker.

D- device connection
- A component of the configurable service for a MedicalDeviceInput node that defines
the connection that is used by a medical device. The device connection
specifies the connection parameters and measurement
set that are used by the device,
and the device type.
- DICOM image
- The combination of pixel data and metadata that is stored, as
a single entity, in a DICOM PACS.
The pixel data can take the form of a scanned image, or encapsulated
data from a DICOM SR.
The metadata includes information that is associated with the pixel
data, for example patient identity information and details of the
study date and study time.
TOP
E- exemplar
- A project that contributes most of its content to a pattern. An
exemplar contains message flows and other resources, such as source
code.
TOP
M- measurement
set
- A component of the configurable service for a MedicalDeviceInput node that contains
one or more measurements and specifies the device type that can be
used.
TOP
P- pattern
- A reusable solution that encapsulates a tested approach to solving
a common architecture, design, or deployment task in a particular
context.
- pattern archive
- An archive file that contains all the installable pattern resources.
The pattern archive can be distributed by using a pattern community
site.
- pattern author
- The developer that creates a pattern to meet a business or technical
requirement.
- pattern authoring
- The process of configuring one or more regular projects to turn
them into a pattern.
- pattern authoring project

- pattern categories
- Categories that are based on pattern classification and that structure
the display in the Patterns Explorer view.
- pattern community site
- An application that supports uploading, browsing, searching, and
downloading pattern archives. The application can be either a website
or a shared file system directory.
- pattern instance
- The implementation of a pattern, consisting of a pattern instance
project and one or more regular WebSphere Message Broker projects
that implement the pattern. A pattern instance is generated by providing
appropriate customization values to the parameters available in the
pattern.
- pattern instance project
- A project that contains project references to all other projects
in the workspace, relating to a specific pattern instance. A pattern
instance project also contains a pattern instance configuration file
that stores the pattern parameter values.
- pattern parameter
- A parameter that customizes and configures a pattern. For example,
a queue name from which messages are read.
- pattern user
- A user who configures a pattern that the pattern author has created.
The pattern is available to a pattern user in the Patterns Explorer
view.
- presentation context
- A service that is available to a connecting application. Each
service defines the preferred formats for data transfer by specifying
a transfer syntax group.
TOP
T- transfer syntax group
- An ordered list of data transfer formats that can be used by a
presentation context.
TOP
U- user-defined pattern
- A pattern that is created by a pattern author.
TOP
W- WebSphere Message Broker Explorer
- A graphical user interface based on the Eclipse platform for administering
your brokers.
- WebSphere Message Broker pattern
- A pattern in the WebSphere Message
Broker Toolkit that
exposes one or more pattern parameters for a pattern user to complete.
- WebSphere Message
Broker Toolkit
- A graphical user interface built on Eclipse that is used to provide
integration and connectivity solutions by developing resources associated
with message flows.
TOP
X- XML audit message
- An XML message that is constructed from data in the message flow,
and sent to an ATNAAudit node.
