  2. Computer-mediated communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-mediated...

    Computer-mediated communication (CMC) is defined as any human communication that occurs through the use of two or more electronic devices. [1] While the term has traditionally referred to those communications that occur via computer-mediated formats (e.g., instant messaging, email, chat rooms, online forums, social network services), it has also been applied to other forms of text-based ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-aided_design

    The terms computer-aided drafting (CAD) and computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) are also used. [2] Its use in designing electronic systems is known as electronic design automation (EDA). In mechanical design it is known as mechanical design automation (MDA), which includes the process of creating a technical drawing with the use of ...

    The header's format is specified in the Internet Protocol, see IP header. In data packets sent by wireless communication , and in sectors of data stored on magnetic media , typically the header begins with a syncword to allow the receiver to adapt to analog amplitude and speed variations and for frame synchronization .

  7. Packet switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_switching

    Packet switching allows delivery of variable bit rate data streams, realized as sequences of short messages in fixed format, i.e. packets, over a computer network which allocates transmission resources as needed using statistical multiplexing or dynamic bandwidth allocation techniques.
