1. <software> A designer's or developer's suite of software that helps
programmers isolate the business logic in their programs from the
platform-related code. Application servers can handle all of the application
logic and connectivity found in client-server applications. Many application
servers also offer features such as transaction management, clustering and
failover, and load balancing; nearly all offer ODBC support.
Application servers range from small footprint, web-based processors for
intelligent appliances or remote embedded devices, to complete environments for
assembling, deploying, and maintaining scalable multi-tier applications across
an enterprise.
2. <software> Production programs run on a mid-sized computer that handle all
application operations between browser-based computers and an organisation's
back-end business applications or databases. The application server works as a
translator, allowing, for example, a customer with a browser to search an online
retailer's database for pricing information.
3. <hardware> The device on which application server software runs. Application
Service Providers offer commercial access to such devices.

Application Service Element
<networking> (ASE) Software in the presentation layer of the OSI seven
layer model which provides an abstracted interface layer to service application
protocol data units (APDU). Because applications and networks vary, ASEs are
split into common services and specific services.
Examples of services provided by the common application service element (CASE)
include remote operations (ROSE) and database concurrency control and recovery
(CCR).
The specific application service element (SASE) provides more specialised
services such as file transfer, database access, and order entry.

application service provider
<business, networking> (ASP) A service (usually a business) that provides
remote access to an application program across a network protocol, typically
HTTP. A common example is a website that other websites use for accepting
payment by credit card as part of their online ordering systems.
As this term is complex-sounding but vague, it is widely used by marketroids who
want to avoid being specific and clear at all costs.
