  2. Hard disk drive performance characteristics - Wikipedia

    The latter will increase the data transfer rate for a given RPM speed. Improvement of data transfer rate performance is correlated to the areal density only by increasing a track's linear surface bit density (sectors per track). Simply increasing the number of tracks on a disk can affect seek times but not gross transfer rates.

  3. WAN optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WAN_optimization

    WAN optimization is a collection of techniques for improving data transfer across wide area networks (WANs). In 2008, the WAN optimization market was estimated to be $1 billion, [1] and was to grow to $4.4 billion by 2014 according to Gartner, [2] a technology research firm.

  4. Zone bit recording - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_bit_recording

    This permits the drive to have more bits stored in the outside tracks compared to the inner ones. Storing more bits per track equates to achieving a higher total data capacity on the same disk area. [2] However, ZBR influences other performance characteristics of the hard disk. In the outermost tracks, data will have the highest data transfer ...

  5. Network performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_performance

    Bandwidth commonly measured in bits/second is the maximum rate that information can be transferred; Throughput is the actual rate that information is transferred; Latency the delay between the sender and the receiver decoding it, this is mainly a function of the signals travel time, and processing time at any nodes the information traverses

  6. IEEE 802.11n-2009 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11n-2009

    The purpose of the standard is to improve network throughput over the two previous standards—802.11a and 802.11g—with a significant increase in the maximum net data rate from 54 Mbit/s to 72 Mbit/s with a single spatial stream in a 20 MHz channel, and 600 Mbit/s (slightly higher gross bit rate including for example error-correction codes ...

  7. Effective data transfer rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_data_transfer_rate

    In telecommunications, effective data transfer rate is the average number of units of data, such as bits, characters, blocks, or frames, transferred per unit time from a source and accepted as valid by a sink. Note: The effective data transfer rate is usually expressed in bits, characters, blocks, or frames per second. The effective data ...

  8. Transfers per second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfers_per_second

    The formula for a data transfer rate is: Channel width (bits/transfer) × transfers/second = bits/second. Expanding the width of a channel, for example that between a CPU and a northbridge , increases data throughput without requiring an increase in the channel's operating frequency (measured in transfers per second).

  9. HTTP compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_compression

    HTTP compression is a capability that can be built into web servers and web clients to improve transfer speed and bandwidth utilization. [1]HTTP data is compressed before it is sent from the server: compliant browsers will announce what methods are supported to the server before downloading the correct format; browsers that do not support compliant compression method will download uncompressed ...
