  2. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model is a reference model from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that "provides a common basis for the coordination of standards development for the purpose of systems interconnection."

  3. Butterfly network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_network

    For a butterfly network with p processor nodes, there need to be p(log 2 p + 1) switching nodes. Figure 1 shows a network with 8 processor nodes, which implies 32 switching nodes. It represents each node as N(rank, column number). For example, the node at column 6 in rank 1 is represented as (1,6) and node at column 2 in rank 0 is represented ...

  4. Computer network diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_diagram

    For example, the sample diagram does not indicate the physical type of connection between the PCs and the switch, but since a modern LAN is depicted, Ethernet may be assumed. If the same style of line was used in a WAN (wide area network) diagram, however, it may indicate a different type of connection.

  5. Torus interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torus_interconnect

    Communication can take place in two directions, +x and −x. A 1D Torus is the same as ring interconnection . 2D Torus: two dimensions with degree of four, the nodes are imagined laid out in a two-dimensional rectangular lattice of n rows and n columns, with each node connected to its four nearest neighbors, and corresponding nodes on opposite ...

  6. Physical layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_layer

    In a network using Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) architecture, the physical signaling sublayer is the portion of the physical layer that [7] [8] interfaces with the data link layer's medium access control (MAC) sublayer, performs symbol encoding, transmission, reception and decoding and, performs galvanic isolation.

  7. Network architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_architecture

    The Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model) defines and codifies the concept of layered network architecture. Abstraction layers are used to subdivide a communications system further into smaller manageable parts. A layer is a collection of similar functions that provide services to the layer above it and receives services from the layer ...

  8. Communications system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_system

    Communication system An electronic communications system using electronic signals. A communications system or communication system is a collection of individual telecommunications networks systems, relay stations, tributary stations, and terminal equipment usually capable of interconnection and interoperation to form an integrated whole.
