In computer science, binding is the creation of a simple reference to something that is larger and more complicated and used frequently. The simple reference can be used instead of having to repeat the larger thing. A binding is such a reference.

Binding is the process of forming an association between a name and an action. This may be the responsibility of the compiler, or of the executing program. With a late binding system, a name may be bound to an action at any point during the execution of a program.

Many operating systems allow threads to be “bound” to particular CPUs, or sets of CPUs; this guarantees that those threads will only execute on the specified CPUs.

A software-based connection between network components, where a component is an adapter, protocol, or service. Bindings determine which adpater can use which protocol over which service. Example: if a network adapter was bound to the NetBEUI protocol and the NetBEUI protocol was bound to the Microsoft File and Printer Sharing service, then that network adapter would be able to use the NetBEUI protocol to share files and printers.

(1.) A temporary association between a client and both an object and a server that exports an interface to the object. A binding is meaningful only to the program that sets it and is represented by a bound handle. (2.) In SOM, Language-specific macro or procedure that makes implementing and using SOM classes more convenient. These bindings offer a convenient interface to SOM that is tailored to a particular programming language. The SOM Compiler generates binding files for C and C++. These binding files include an implementation template for the class and two header files, one to be included in the class's implementation file and the other in client programs. (3.) In a multiprocessor context, constraining a thread to a specific physical processor to gain the benefit of processor affinity.

a binding estimate is an agreement made in advance with the mover that guarantees the total cost of the move based on the quantities and services shown on the estimate. A non-binding estimate is the carrier's approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. A non-binding estimate is not binding on the carrier and the final charges will be based on the actual weight and tariff provisions in effect.

The ability of molecules to stick to each other because of the exact shape and chemical nature of parts of their surfaces. Many biological molecules bind extremely tightly and specifically to other molecules: enzymes to their substrates; antibodies to their antigens; DNA strands to their complementary strands; and so on. Binding can be characterized by a binding constant or association constant (Ka), or its inverse, the dissociation constant (Kd).

An association between an interface, a concrete protocol and a data format. A binding specifies the protocol and data format to be used in transmitting messages defined by the associated interface. [WSD Reqs] The mapping of an interface and its associated operations to a particular concrete message format and transmission protocol. See also SOAP binding.
