A CWIS makes information and services publicly available on campus via kiosks, and makes interactive computing available via kiosks, interactive computing systems and campus networks. Services routinely include directory information, calendars, bulletin boards, databases. Packet switching information grouped in units of uniform size.
Cells are fixed-length packets.
Cell Relay Packet switching technique which uses packets of fixed length, resulting in lower processing speeds. Network transmission format that uses small packets of uniform size, called cells. The fixed-length cells can be processed and transmitted by hardware at very high speeds. Channel Aggregation Channel aggregation combines multiple physical channels into one logical channel of greater bandwidth. With BRI ISDN connections, channel aggregation would combine the two 64 K bit B channels into a single, logical 128 Kbit channel.
