Definition: DCE
(1) (DataCenter Ethernet) See datacenter bridging.
(2) (Distributed Computing Environment) Software from The Open Group that allows applications to be built across heterogeneous platforms in a network. DCE includes security, directory naming, time synchronization, file sharing, RPCs and multithreading services. See Open Group.
(3) (Digital Consumer Electronics) TSMC's system-on-chips (SoCs) for smart TVs, set-top boxes and digital cameras. See SoC, TSMC, STB and smart TV.
(4) (Data Communications Equipment or Data Circuit-terminating Equipment) A device that establishes, maintains and terminates a session on a network. Typically a modem, a DCE may also convert signals to a different format. Contrast with DTE. See modem.
