Stub (distributed computing) In distributed computing, a stub is a program that acts as a temporary replacement for a remote service or object. [1] It allows the client application to access a service as if it were local, while hiding the details of the underlying network communication. This can simplify the development process, as the client ...

In microwave and radio-frequency engineering, a stub or resonant stub is a length of transmission line or waveguide that is connected at one end only.
If you are unfamiliar with the topic-stub hierarchy, just put the generic { {stub}} tag on the article and continue working. You may even want to help out with sorting. But don't let a lack of familiarity with part of the encyclopedia stop you from adding to it. This is a wiki, after all, and it thrives on editors who each know a lot of things ...
