English

Subject field(s)
  • Informatics
  • Artificial Intelligence
DEF

A field of computing that aims to identify the meanings of computational content and user intentions and to express them in a machine-processable form.

CONT

Semantic computing relies on the notion that computers can be "taught" to approach concepts and problems in a similar way to humans. By linking together certain natural language concepts instead of just solving mathematical equations, computers can make inferences about data sets that might not be hard-coded into the system from the start.

OBS

semantic computing: designation and definition standardized by ISO and the International Electrotechnical Commission.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Informatique
  • Intelligence artificielle
DEF

Domaine de l'informatique qui vise à identifier les significations du contenu informatique et les intentions de l'utilisateur et à les exprimer sous une forme exploitable par machine.

CONT

En informatique classique, le traitement de l'information a lieu au niveau du texte rédigé, alors que dans l'informatique sémantique, le traitement de l'information est réalisé au niveau de la sémantique du texte.

OBS

informatique sémantique : désignation et définition normalisées par l'ISO et la Commission électrotechnique internationale.

Record 2 2023-10-17

English

Subject field(s)
  • Computer Programs and Programming
  • Internet and Telematics
CONT

A static URL is one that does not change, so it typically does not contain any url parameters. Updating these kinds of pages can be time consuming, especially if the amount of information grows quickly, since every single page has to be hard-coded. This is why webmasters who deal with large, frequently updated sites like online shops, forum communities, blogs or content management systems may use dynamic URLs.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Programmes et programmation (Informatique)
  • Internet et télématique
CONT

Une adresse URL statique est inchangeable pour tous les groupes d'utilisateurs, indépendamment de leur localité, langue, historique des recherches, etc. parce qu'elle ne contient pas de paramètres personnalisés.

OBS

localisateur uniforme de ressources statique : équivalent proposé pour la désignation anglaise «static Uniform Resource Locator».

  • Information Processing (Informatics)
DEF

A technique to determine the century (high-order digits) of a year when represented by two digits.
