The traditional example cited for merge in transit is for personal computer s, where the manufacturer needed to mix locally produced PC towers with monitors, keyboards, printers, and other accessories produced by other companies. Merge in transit can operate on an international basis, in which bulk shipments from different sources are merged and sent to customers, such as large reseller channels, as one shipment.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 A merge module is a special kind of Windows Installer database that contains the components needed to install a discrete software bundle. A merge module cannot be installed alone, but must be merged into a standard Windows Installer installation during the creation of the installation. Typically, a merge module or a collection of merge modules related by Coupling computer science dependencies , installs a software product or portion of a product at runtime. The purpose of merge modules is to let you add self contained software modules to multiple installations. For example, if there are a number of applications that require a specifically configured component, it would be possible to create a merge module that installs and configures that component. That merge module could then be added to the installation packages of each product that required that particular component. This saves the effort of having to individually add the necessary files, Windows Registry registry entries, and other components to every installation. It also saves time if updates are needed, as instead of updating the installations for all five applications, only the merge module is updated, and the installations only need to be rebuilt. Some merge modules may be configurable merge modules. Such merge modules contain certain values that can be set to specify how the module behaves in your installation. For example, the author of the configurable merge module may allow attributes to be set on components, enable or disable isolated components, specify a bitmap for a dialog, or specify how a custom action is run. Configurable merge modules are supported only by Windows Installer 2.0 or higher. There exist a number of pre created merge modules which install commonly used Microsoft software packages, such as MDAC , ActiveX controls, Microsoft Foundation Class ... fr Merge module ... more details

A 3 way merge is a more powerful and reliable method of merging than is afforded by the 2 way merge.

Unreferenced date December 2009 The Sort Merge Join also known as Merge Join is an example of a join algorithm and is used in the implementation of a relational database relational database management system . The basic problem of a join algorithm is to find, for each distinct value of the join attribute, the set of tuple s in each relation which display that value. The key idea of the Sort merge algorithm is to first sort the relations by the join attribute, so that interleaved linear scans will encounter these sets at the same time. In practice, the most expensive part of performing a sort merge join is arranging for both inputs to the algorithm to be presented in sorted order. This can be achieved via an explicit sort operation often an external sort , or by taking advantage of a pre existing ordering in one or both of the join relations. The latter condition can occur because an input to the join might be produced by an index scan of a tree based index, another merge join, or some other plan operator that happens to produce output sorted on an appropriate key. Let s say that we have two relations math R math and math S math and math R S math . math R math fits in math P r math pages memory and math S math fits in math P s math pages memory. So, in the worst case Sort Merge Join will run in math O P r P s math I Os. In the case that math R math and math S math are not ordered the worst case will be math O P r P s 2 P r P r log P r P s P s log P s math where the last two terms are the cost of ordering both of them first . Pseudocode For simplicity, the algorithm is described in the case of an Join SQL Inner join inner join of two relations on a single attribute.

In traffic flow theory, the Newell Daganzo merge model describes a simple procedure on how to determine the flows exiting two branch roadways and merging to flow through a single roadway. The model is simple in that it does not consider the actual merging process between vehicles as the two branch roadways come together. The only information required to calculate the flows leaving the two branch roadways are the capacities of the two branch roadways and the exiting capacity, the demands into the system, and a value describing how the two input flows interact. This latter input term is called the split priority, or merge ratio, and is defined to be the proportion of the two input flows when both are operating in congested conditions.

The Sort Merge IBM mainframe utility programs utility is a mainframe program to sort records in a file into a specified order, merge pre sorted files into a sorted file, or copy selected records. Internally, these utilities use one or more of the standard sorting algorithm s, often with proprietary fine tuned code. Mainframes were originally supplied with limited Primary memory Primary storage main memory by the standards of 2012. The amount of data to be sorted was frequently very large. Because of this, unlike more recent sort programs, early sort merge programs placed great emphasis on efficient techniques for sorting data on Primary memory Secondary storage secondary storage , typically Magnetic tape data storage tape or Direct access storage device disk . In 1968 the OS 360 Sort Merge program provided five different sequence distribution techniques that could be used depending on the number and type of devices available. ref cite book last IBM Corporation title IBM System 360 Operating System Sort Merge GC28 6435 5 year 1968 pages 16 17 url http www.prycroft6.com.au misc download GC28 6543 5 OS360 Sort Merge Nov68OCR.pdf ref Sort Merge is very frequently used often the most commonly used application program in a mainframe shop. Modern sort merge programs also can copy files, selecting or omitting certain records, summarize records, remove duplicates, reformat records, and produce reports. Sort merge is important enough that there are multiple companies each selling their own sort merge package for IBM MVS mainframes. The major ones are DFSORT sold by IBM . SyncSort sold by Syncsort , Inc. CA SORT sold by Computer Associates , Inc. Some of these also sell versions for other platforms, such as Unix , Linux , or Microsoft windows Windows .

The Sort Merge Generator was an application developed by Betty Holberton in 1951 for the Univac I and is one of the first examples of using a computer to create a computer program. The input to the application was a specification of files and the kind of sort and merge operations to use and the output would be machine code for performing the specification. ref cite conference last Hopper first Grace title Keynote Address booktitle Proceedings of the ACM SIGPLAN History of Programming Languages HOPL conference ref See also History of programming languages References cite conference last Holberton first F.E. title Application of Automatic Coding to Logical Processes booktitle Symposium Automatic Programming for DigitalComputers, Office of Naval Research, Dept. of the Navy, Oct. 1954, pp.34 39 cite conference last Hopper first Grace title Automatic Coding for Digital Computers booktitle High Speed Computer Conference Louisiana State University February 1995 publisher Remington Rand Notes references compu lang stub Category Text oriented programming languages ... more details
