Organic description of a curve
(gcide) | Organic \Or*gan"ic\ ([^o]r*g[a^]n"[i^]k), a. [L. organicus, Gr.
'organiko`s: cf. F. organique.]
1. (Biol.) Of or pertaining to an organ or its functions, or
to objects composed of organs; consisting of organs, or
containing them; as, the organic structure of animals and
plants; exhibiting characters peculiar to living
organisms; as, organic bodies, organic life, organic
remains. Cf. Inorganic.
[1913 Webster]
2. Produced by the organs; as, organic pleasure. [R.]
[1913 Webster]
3. Instrumental; acting as instruments of nature or of art to
a certain destined function or end. [R.]
[1913 Webster]
Those organic arts which enable men to discourse and
write perspicuously. --Milton.
[1913 Webster]
4. Forming a whole composed of organs. Hence: Of or
pertaining to a system of organs; inherent in, or
resulting from, a certain organization; as, an organic
government; his love of truth was not inculcated, but
organic.
[1913 Webster]
5. (Chem.) Of or pertaining to compounds which are
derivatives of hydrocarbons; pertaining to, or denoting,
any one of a large series of carbon-containing compounds
which are related to the carbon compounds produced by
biological processes (such as methane, oils, fats, sugars,
alcohols, ethers, proteins, etc.) and include many
substances of artificial production which may or may not
occur in animals or plants; -- contrasted with
inorganic.
Note: Borderline cases exist which may be classified as
either organic or inorganic, such as carbon
terachloride (which may be viewed as a derivative of
methane), but in general a compound must have a carbon
with a hydrogen atom or another carbon atom attached to
it to be viewed as truly organic, i.e. included in the
subject matter of organic chemistry.
[1913 Webster +PJC]
Note: The principles of organic and inorganic chemistry are
identical; but the enormous number and the completeness
of related series of organic compounds, together with
their remarkable facility of exchange and substitution,
offer an illustration of chemical reaction and homology
not to be paralleled in inorganic chemistry.
[1913 Webster]
Organic analysis (Chem.), the analysis of organic
compounds, concerned chiefly with the determination of
carbon as carbon dioxide, hydrogen as water, oxygen as the
difference between the sum of the others and 100 per cent,
and nitrogen as free nitrogen, ammonia, or nitric oxide;
-- formerly called ultimate analysis, in distinction from
proximate analysis.
Organic chemistry. See under Chemistry.
Organic compounds. (Chem.) Chemical substances which are
organic[5]. See Carbon compounds, under Carbon.
Organic description of a curve (Geom.), the description of
a curve on a plane by means of instruments. --Brande & C.
Organic disease (Med.), a disease attended with morbid
changes in the structure of the organs of the body or in
the composition of its fluids; -- opposed to {functional
disease}.
Organic electricity. See under Electricity.
Organic law or Organic laws, a law or system of laws, or
declaration of principles fundamental to the existence and
organization of a political or other association; a
constitution.
Organic stricture (Med.), a contraction of one of the
natural passages of the body produced by structural
changes in its walls, as distinguished from a {spasmodic
stricture}, which is due to muscular contraction.

formal description technique
(foldoc) | Formal Description Technique
FDT
(FDT) A formal method for
developing telecomunications services and protocols. FDTs
range from abstract to implementation-oriented descriptions.
All FDTs offer the means for producing unambiguous
descriptions of OSI services and protocols in a more
precise and comprehensive way than natural language
descriptions. They provide a foundation for analysis and
verification of a description. The target of analysis and
verification may vary from abstract properties to concrete
properties. Natural language descriptions remain an essential
adjunct to formal description, enabling an unfarmiliar reader
to gain rapid insight into the structure and function of
services and protocols.
Examples of FDTs are LOTOS, Z, SDL, and Estelle.
[ISO/IEC DTR10167: "Guidelines for the application of
Estelle, LOTOS and SDL"].

Scorpion environment development system.

page description language
(foldoc) | Page Description Language
(PDL) A language such as Adobe Systems, Inc.'s PostScript
or Xerox's Interpress which allows the appearance of a
printed page to be described in a high-level,
device-independent way. Printing then becomes a two-stage
process: an application program produces a description in
the language, which is then interpreted by a specific output
device. Such a language can therefore serve as an interchange
standard for transmission and storage of printable documents.

resource description framework
(foldoc) | Resource Description Framework
RDF
(RDF) A specification being
developed in 2000 by the W3C as a foundation for processing
metadata regarding resources on the Internet, including
the web.
Resource Description Framework data consists of resources
(nodes), and property/value pairs describing the resource.
A node is any object which can be pointed to by a URI,
properties are attributes of the node, and values can be
either atomic values for the attribute, or other nodes. For
example, information about a particular web page (a node),
might include the property "Author". The value for the Author
property could be either a string giving the name of the
author, or a link to a resource describing the author.
Resource Description Framework only specifies a mechanism for
encoding and transferring metadata. It does not specify what
that metadata should, or can be. RDF does not, for example,
define an "Author" attribute. Sets of properties are defined
within RDF Vocabularies (or Schemas). Anynone can create an
RDF schema, describing a specialized set of properties, by
creating a resource, referenced by the Schema URI, which
provides a human- and machine-understandable definition of the
schema's properties. The description of a node may include
properties defined in different schemas. The properties
within a resource description are associated with a certain
schema definition using the XML namespace mechanism.
Schemas currently being developed include a content screening
system modeled after PICS, and a bibliographic vocabulary,
such as the Dublin Core Initiative.
