  2. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    The difference is that bandwidth throttling regulates a bandwidth intensive device (such as a server) by limiting how much data that device can receive from each node / client or can output or can send for each response. Bandwidth capping on the other hand limits the total transfer capacity, upstream or downstream, of data over a medium.

  3. Dynamic frequency scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_frequency_scaling

    Dynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a power management technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted "on the fly" depending on the actual needs, to conserve power and reduce the amount of heat generated by the chip.

  4. Rate limiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_limiting

    When a protocol server or a network device notice that the configured request limit is reached, then it will offload new requests and not respond to them. Sometimes they may be added to a queue to be processed once the input rate reaches an acceptable level, but at peak times the request rate can even exceed the capacities of such queues and ...

  7. Wireless access point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_access_point

    In computer networking, a wireless access point (WAP) (also just access point (AP)) is a networking hardware device that allows other Wi-Fi devices to connect to a wired network or wireless network. As a standalone device, the AP may have a wired or wireless connection to a switch or router , but in a wireless router it can also be an integral ...

  8. TCP congestion control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_congestion_control

    In TCP, the congestion window (CWND) is one of the factors that determines the number of bytes that can be sent out at any time. The congestion window is maintained by the sender and is a means of preventing a link between the sender and the receiver from becoming overloaded with too much traffic.

  9. Flash evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_evaporation

    If the throttling valve or device is located at the entry into a pressure vessel so that the flash evaporation occurs within the vessel, then the vessel is often referred to as a flash drum. [1] [2] If the saturated liquid is a single-component liquid (for example, propane or liquid ammonia), a part of the liquid immediately "flashes" into vapor.
