Gartner delivers technology research to global technology business leaders to make informed decisions on key initiatives.
Power adaptive algorithms select their method, changing the intensity of the computing resources (and thus energy use) to accomplish different objectives for power savings or service levels. This requires that the designer of the adaptive software think of multiple ways to accomplish the function, code each method and provide a mechanism to switch between them, based on a desired policy.

Gartner defines portfolio management as a shift from the practice of using a single integrated application for the support of business requirements to using a collection of applications, technologies and services to create a system that addresses the unique requirements of an organization and leverages best-of-breed opportunities.

Organizations use both portal and other user interface products to provide access to, and interaction with, relevant information, applications, business processes and human resources for select targeted audiences. Especially where these are provided by portals, these can be delivered in a highly personalized manner. Horizontal portal products can be used to create portals facing a variety of external and internal audience types. A modern portal product is programmable and thus performs platform middleware functions. Increasingly, it also includes integration middleware functions, such as transformation and intelligent routing (that is, it can include some form of basic integration suite). Modern horizontal portal products often include at least limited support for Web content management and collaboration features and often come with an embedded search engine.
Industry:Technology
The toolset for a portal including the platform middleware and the integration and context management tools.

The portal fabric is a concept whereby portals and Web resources adapt to users’ preferred environments and interaction patterns, rather than forcing them to change their behaviors based on a portal they’re visiting. The technology underpinnings of the portal fabric rely on standards for federated identity and access management, context awareness, social interaction, content interoperability, and presence awareness.

A portal is a high-traffic website with a wide range of content, services and vendor links. It acts as a value-added middleman by selecting the content sources and assembling them in a simple-to-navigate and customize interface for presentation to the end user. Portals typically offer such services as Web searching, news, reference tools, access to online shopping venues, and communications capabilities including e-mail and chat rooms.
Industry:Technology
Term used by the WiMAX Forum for semimobile wireless. The terms “nomadic,” “portable” and “mobile” often vary in definition when used by vendors. See also fixed wireless and mobile wireless.
Industry:Technology
Portable storage device control tools are software-based tools that prevent unwanted data leakage through peripheral storage devices. They are designed to support more-secure use of portable storage devices (such as USB flash drives, portable media players, mobile phones and flash cards) by enabling granular control of these devices. Logging and reporting capabilities, through a management console, are also included. Portable device control tools can enable the enforced encryption of the data being downloaded to a device.
