It is a protocol in which the carrier-sensing scheme is applied, and also comes into play when a transmitting data station detects another signal when transmitting a frame, in which case it will stop transmitting the frame and transmit the jam signal instead, and then wait for a random time interval before trying to transmit the frame again. It works in many ways like polite human beings having a conversation where they don’t interrupt each other.]]> http://www.systemdisc.com/csma-cd/feed 0 http://www.systemdisc.com/ethernet http://www.systemdisc.com/ethernet#comments Sun, 22 Aug 2010 03:12:29 +0000 admin Ethernet is a widely used Local Area Network (LAN) technology that controls how information is transmitted on the network through cables. The concept can be demonstrated using a civil discussion forum, whereby group members do not interrupt the member who is talking. The original Ethernet envisaged communication over a single cable shared by all cables in the network, so that once a device was connected to the cable, it could communicate with the cable.]]> http://www.systemdisc.com/ethernet/feed 0
