  2. Comparison of synchronous and asynchronous signalling

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_synchronous...

    The most common asynchronous signalling, asynchronous start-stop signalling, uses a near-constant 'bit' timing (+/- 5% local oscillator required at both ends of the connection [2]). Using this method, the receiver detects the 'first' edge transition... (the START bit), waits 'half a bit duration' and then reads the value of the signal.

  3. Message passing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing

    Synchronous message passing occurs between objects that are running at the same time. It is used by object-oriented programming languages such as Java and Smalltalk . Synchronous messaging is analogous to a synchronous function call; just as the function caller waits until the function completes, the sending process waits until the receiving ...

  4. Data communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_communication

    Asynchronous serial communication uses start and stop bits to signify the beginning and end of transmission. [20] This method of transmission is used when data are sent intermittently as opposed to in a solid stream. Synchronous transmission synchronizes transmission speeds at both the receiving and sending end of the transmission using clock ...

  5. Asynchronous communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_communication

    Examples include email [3] and bulletin-board systems, where participants send or post messages at different times than they read them. The term "asynchronous communication" acquired currency in the field of online learning, where teachers and students often exchange information asynchronously instead of synchronously (that is, simultaneously ...

  6. Synchronous serial communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_serial...

    Synchronous serial communication describes a serial communication protocol in which "data is sent in a continuous stream at constant rate." [1]Synchronous communication requires that the clocks in the transmitting and receiving devices are synchronized – running at the same rate – so the receiver can sample the signal at the same time intervals used by the transmitter.

  7. Message queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_queue

    This is because it is always possible to layer asynchronous behaviour (which is what is required for message queuing) over a synchronous protocol using request-response semantics. However, such implementations are constrained by the underlying protocol in this case and may not be able to offer the full fidelity or set of options required in ...

  8. Synchronous Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_Ethernet

    Synchronous Ethernet, also referred as SyncE, is an ITU-T standard for computer networking that facilitates the transference of clock signals over the Ethernet physical layer. This signal can then be made traceable to an external clock.

  9. Asynchronous serial communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_serial...

    Asynchronous start-stop is the lower data-link layer used to connect computers to modems for many dial-up Internet access applications, using a second (encapsulating) data link framing protocol such as PPP to create packets made up out of asynchronous serial characters. The most common physical layer interface used is RS-232D.
