  2. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    Futures can easily be implemented in channels: a future is a one-element channel, and a promise is a process that sends to the channel, fulfilling the future. [104] [105] This allows futures to be implemented in concurrent programming languages with support for channels, such as CSP and Go. The resulting futures are explicit, as they must be ...

    The Experimental Packet Switched Service (EPSS) was an experiment of the UK Post Office Telecommunications. It was the first public data network in the UK when it began operating in 1976. [168] Ferranti supplied the hardware and software. The handling of link control messages (acknowledgements and flow control) was different from that of most ...

  7. Channel access method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_access_method

    Packet mode channel access methods select a single network transmitter for the duration of a packet transmission. Some methods are more suited to wired communication while others are more suited to wireless. [1] Common statistical time-division multiplexing multiple access protocols for wired multi-drop networks include:

  8. Deep packet inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection

    Deep Packet Inspection (and filtering) enables advanced network management, user service, and security functions as well as internet data mining, eavesdropping, and internet censorship. Although DPI has been used for Internet management for many years, some advocates of net neutrality fear that the technique may be used anticompetitively or to ...
