Es beschreibt Standards, Verfahren und Methoden des Einsatzes der Informationstechnik in den Behörden und gibt Empfehlungen, insbesondere zur Gestaltung von E-Government-Angeboten der öffentlichen Verwaltung. Unicode v4.0 UTF-16 Unicode v4.x UTF-16 4.0 n computing, UTF-16 (16-bit Unicode Transformation Format) is a variable-length character encoding for Unicode, capable of encoding the entire Unicode repertoire. The encoding form maps code points (characters) into a sequence of 16-bit words, called code units. For characters in the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) the resulting encoding is a single 16-bit word. For characters in the other planes, the encoding will result in a pair of 16-bit words, together called a surrogate pair. All possible code points from U+0000 through U+10FFFF, except for the surrogate code points U+D800 to U+DFFF, are uniquely mapped by UTF-16 regardless of the code point's current or future character assignment or use. True 7 12 True False True False Text File Text File txt A text file is a generic description of computer file in a computer file system.

True 1880000 20 False False True RMI-IIOP emote Method Invocation over Internet Inter-ORB Protocol RMI-IIOP This standard was created to simplify the development of CORBA applications, while preserving all major benefits. RMI-IIOP is largely based on the Object by Value concept that serves as a container or direct replacement for CORBA structures, unions, sequences, arrays and strings. The IDL is not used. Instead, the data structure definitions "supposed" automatically, collecting the necessary data via reflection mechanisms. When CORBA needs supplementary generated classes for each non trivial data structure being transferred, RMI-IIOP only uses the generated code for remote objects. Less generated code results in the smaller footprint.

L’objectif est de renforcer la cohérence entre les systèmes d’information, et de favoriser le partenariat entre l’Etat et les collectivités territoriales, notamment dans le domaine des services en ligne offerts notamment aux citoyens ou aux entreprises. Une réflexion est actuellement engagé sur l’évolution future du CCI (version 3) à la lumière, d’une part, du programme de l’ADAE et notamment du futur schéma directeur administration électronique (SDAE), d’autre part, de l’évolution suivie par les cadres d’interopérabilité d’autres états membres de l’Union Européenne (GB, Allemagne), et enfin de l’ébauche du cadre d’interopérabilité pour les services en ligne gouvernementaux paneuropéens, dans le cadre du programme IDA. Parallèlement à cette réflexion, une version intermédiaire (v2.1) du CCI est dès à présent publiée. Elle intègre principalement une évolution du chapitre consacré aux architectures applicatives, notamment la recommandation des technologies SOAP et WSDL associées aux développements des « webservices ». D’autre part, la partie consacrée aux familles de plate-forme permettant l’implémentation d’architectures multi niveaux a été étoffée. En plus des technologies J2EE (Java2 Enterprise Edition) et .NET, les technologies du monde du logiciel libre, par l’intermédiaire de ZOPE, sont aujourd’hui représentées. Ces technologies sont étudiées notamment du point de vue de leur capacité à intégrer de nouveaux standards et à interopérer. De ce fait elles n’ont pas vocation à être intégrées en temps que recommandations dans le cadre commun d’interopérabilité. En effet il ne s’agit pas de standards mais de plates-formes logicielles, propriétaires ou non, implémentant certains standards, eux-mêmes référencés.
