and study guides.
Critical path - CORRECT ANSWER - Identified as the longest stretch of dependent
activities and measuring them from start to finish
Operational CRM - CORRECT ANSWER - Supports traditional transactional processing
for day to day front office operations or systems that deal directly with the customers
Autonomic computing - CORRECT ANSWER - A self-managed computer model named
after and patterned on the human body's autonomic nervous system
Real-time adaptive security - CORRECT ANSWER - The network security model
necessary to accommodate the emergence of multiple perimeters and moving parts on the
network and increasingly advance threats targeting enterprises
Autonomous agent - CORRECT ANSWER - Software that carries out some set of
operations on behalf of a user or another program with some degree of independence or
autonomy and employs some knowledge of representation of the users goals or desires
Machine learning - CORRECT ANSWER - A type of artificial intelligence that enables
computers to both understand concepts in the environment and also to learn
,Information of everything (IoE) - CORRECT ANSWER - A concept that extends the
Internet of Things emphasis on machine to machine communication to describe a more complex
system that encompasses people and processes
Ambient digital experience - CORRECT ANSWER - A band of the physical, virtual, and
electronic environment creating a real-time ambient environment that changes as the user moves
from one place to another
Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) - CORRECT ANSWER - The most recent version of the
communications protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on
networks and routes traffic across the Internet
Interoperability - CORRECT ANSWER - Capability of two or more computer systems to
share data and resources even though they are made by different manufacturers
Protocol - CORRECT ANSWER - A standard that specifies the format of data as well as
the rules to be followed during transmission

an attribute that serves as a unique ID (tract number, node number) or classification (soil type,
zoning category)
Spatial data (geospatial data) - CORRECT ANSWER - Identifies the geographical location
of features and boundaries on earth such as natural or constructed features, oceans, and more
Geographic information system (GIS) - CORRECT ANSWER - Stores, views, and
analyze geographic data creating a multidimensional chart or map
Application delivery - CORRECT ANSWER - Delivers Applications to corporate and
personal smartphones and tablets.
,Mobile application management (MAM) - CORRECT ANSWER - Delivers Applications
to corporate and personal smartphones and tablets. It assists with software delivery, licensing,
and maintenance and can limit how sensitive data can be shared among apps.
Mobile Device Management (MDM) - CORRECT ANSWER - Remotely controls

networking that offers faster speeds, more flexibility, and greater range than previous versions.
IEEE 802.11n - CORRECT ANSWER - Multiple transmitters and receivers allow sending
and receiving greater amount of data than traditional networking devices.
, MIMO technology - CORRECT ANSWER - Multiple in multiple out technology.
Bluetooth - CORRECT ANSWER - Wireless PAN technology that transmits signals over
short distance among cell phones, computers, and other devices.
Master data management (MDM) - CORRECT ANSWER - The practice of gathering data
and ensuring that it is uniform, accurate, consistent, and complete, including critical entities that
are commonly integrated across organizational systems.
Backward integration - CORRECT ANSWER - Takes information entered into a given
system and sends it automatically to all upstream systems and processes.
Forward integration - CORRECT ANSWER - Takes information entered into a given
system and sends it automatically to all downstream systems and processes.
Integration - CORRECT ANSWER - Allows separate systems to communicate directly
with each other, eliminating the need for manual entry into multiple systems.
Dynamic catalog - CORRECT ANSWER - An area of a website that stores information
about products in a database.
Dynamic information - CORRECT ANSWER - Includes data that change based on user
actions.
Static information - CORRECT ANSWER - Includes fixed data incapable of change in the
event of a user action.
Data-driven website - CORRECT ANSWER - An interactive website kept constantly
updated and relevant to the needs of its customers using a database.
