  2. Flow control (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_(data)

    In data communications, flow control is the process of managing the rate of data transmission between two nodes to prevent a fast sender from overwhelming a slow receiver. Flow control should be distinguished from congestion control , which is used for controlling the flow of data when congestion has actually occurred. [ 1 ]

  3. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Many models of communication include the idea that a sender encodes a message and uses a channel to transmit it to a receiver. Noise may distort the message along the way. The receiver then decodes the message and gives some form of feedback. [1] Models of communication simplify or represent the process of communication.

  4. Engine order telegraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_order_telegraph

    This sends an electrical signal to the EOT placed in the engine room whose pointer acquires a position according to the signal given from the bridge. An audible alarm sounds at both ends. Accordingly, the watch-keeping engineer acknowledges the order by moving the handle of the engine room EOT to the required position and takes necessary action.

  5. Downsampling (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downsampling_(signal...

    Reduce high-frequency signal components with a digital lowpass filter. Decimate the filtered signal by M; that is, keep only every M th sample. Step 2 alone creates undesirable aliasing (i.e. high-frequency signal components will copy into the lower frequency band and be mistaken for lower frequencies). Step 1, when necessary, suppresses ...

  6. Source–message–channel–receiver model of communication

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source–message–channel...

    The SMCR model is usually described as a linear transmission model of communication. [4] [17] Its main focus is to identify the basic parts of communication and to show how their characteristics shape the communicative process. In this regard, Berlo understands his model as "a model of the ingredients of communication". [24]

  7. Schramm's model of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schramm's_model_of...

    Schramm's model of communication was published by Wilbur Schramm in 1954. It is one of the earliest interaction models of communication. [1] [2] [3] It was conceived as a response to and an improvement over earlier attempts in the form of linear transmission models, like the Shannon–Weaver model and Lasswell's model.

  8. Sliding window protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_window_protocol

    A sliding window protocol is a feature of packet-based data transmission protocols.Sliding window protocols are used where reliable in-order delivery of packets is required, such as in the data link layer (OSI layer 2) as well as in the Transmission Control Protocol (i.e., TCP windowing).

  9. Lasswell's model of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasswell's_model_of...

    A model of communication is a simplified presentation that aims to give a basic explanation of the process by highlighting its most fundamental characteristics and components. [16] [8] [17] For example, James Watson and Anne Hill see Lasswell's model as a mere questioning device and not as a full model of communication. [10]
