  2. Ring network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_network

    A ring network is a network topology in which each node connects to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node – a ring. Data travels from node to node, with each node along the way handling every packet.

  3. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    Ring network topology. A ring topology is a daisy chain in a closed loop. Data travels around the ring in one direction. When one node sends data to another, the data passes through each intermediate node on the ring until it reaches its destination. The intermediate nodes repeat (retransmit) the data to keep the signal strong. [5]

  4. Token Ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_Ring

    Token Ring is a physical and data link layer computer networking technology used to build local area networks. It was introduced by IBM in 1984, and standardized in 1989 as IEEE 802.5. It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that is passed around a logical ring of workstations or servers.

  5. Borromean rings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borromean_rings

    The name "Borromean rings" comes from the use of these rings, in the form of three linked circles, in the coat of arms of the aristocratic Borromeo family in Northern Italy. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] The link itself is much older and has appeared in the form of the valknut , three linked equilateral triangles with parallel sides, on Norse image stones ...

  6. Topological ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_ring

    The group of units of a topological ring is a topological group when endowed with the topology coming from the embedding of into the product as (,). However, if the unit group is endowed with the subspace topology as a subspace of , it may not be a topological group, because inversion on need not be continuous with respect to the subspace topology.

  7. Zariski topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zariski_topology

    The generalization of the Zariski topology to the set of prime ideals of a commutative ring follows from Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, that establishes a bijective correspondence between the points of an affine variety defined over an algebraically closed field and the maximal ideals of the ring of its regular functions. This suggests defining the ...

  8. Triangulated irregular network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulated_irregular_network

    Triangulated irregular network TIN overlaid with contour lines. In computer graphics, a triangulated irregular network (TIN) [1] is a representation of a continuous surface consisting entirely of triangular facets (a triangle mesh), used mainly as Discrete Global Grid in primary elevation modeling.

  9. Ring (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_(mathematics)

    A ring is a set R equipped with two binary operations [a] + (addition) and ⋅ (multiplication) satisfying the following three sets of axioms, called the ring axioms: [1] [2] [3] R is an abelian group under addition, meaning that: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) for all a, b, c in R (that is, + is associative). a + b = b + a for all a, b in R (that ...
