  2. Frame (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_(networking)

    A frame is "the unit of transmission in a link layer protocol, and consists of a link layer header followed by a packet." [2] Each frame is separated from the next by an interframe gap. A frame is a series of bits generally composed of frame synchronization bits, the packet payload, and a frame check sequence.

  3. Line segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_segment

    In an axiomatic treatment of geometry, the notion of betweenness is either assumed to satisfy a certain number of axioms, or defined in terms of an isometry of a line (used as a coordinate system). Segments play an important role in other theories. For example, in a convex set, the segment that joins any two points of the set is contained in ...

  4. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    It was designed to provide a unified data-carrying service for both circuit-based clients and packet-switching clients which provide a datagram-based service model. It can be used to carry many different kinds of traffic, including IP packets, as well as native ATM, SONET, and Ethernet frames. Sometimes one sees reference to a Layer 2.5.

  5. Packet segmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_segmentation

    In data communications networks, packet segmentation is the process of dividing a data packet into smaller units for transmission over the network. Packet segmentation happens at layer four of the OSI model; the transport layer. [1] Segmentation may be required when: The data packet is larger than the maximum transmission unit supported by the ...

  6. Network packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_packet

    In the seven-layer OSI model of computer networking, packet strictly refers to a protocol data unit at layer 3, the network layer. [2] A data unit at layer 2, the data link layer, is a frame. In layer 4, the transport layer, the data units are segments and datagrams.

  7. Frame (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_(linear_algebra)

    A frame is an equal norm frame if there is a constant such that ‖ ‖ = for each ...

  8. Ethernet frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_frame

    An Ethernet packet starts with a seven-octet (56-bit) preamble and one-octet (8-bit) start frame delimiter (SFD). [d] The preamble bit values alternate 1 and 0, allowing receivers to synchronize their clock at the bit-level with the transmitter. The preamble is followed by the SFD which ends with a 1 instead of 0, to break the bit pattern of ...

  9. Frame bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_bundle

    The frame bundle of a manifold is a special type of principal bundle in the sense that its geometry is fundamentally tied to the geometry of . This relationship can be expressed by means of a vector-valued 1-form on F M {\displaystyle FM} called the solder form (also known as the fundamental or tautological 1-form ).
