Answer the following question: Information: - A portmanteau (; plural "portmanteaus" or "portmanteaux" ) or portmanteau word is a linguistic blend of words, in which parts of multiple words or their phones (sounds) are combined into a new word. as in "smog", coined by blending "smoke" and "fog", or "popportunity", from "popping" and "opportunity", or "motel", from "motor" and "hotel". In linguistics, a portmanteau is defined as a single morph that represents two or more morphemes. - The bit is a basic unit of information in computing and digital communications. A bit can have only one of two values, and may therefore be physically implemented with a two-state device. These values are most commonly represented as either a . The term "bit" is a portmanteau of binary digit. In information theory, the bit is equivalent to the unit "shannon", named after Claude Shannon. - Debt, AIDS, Trade, Africa (DATA) was a multinational non-government organization founded in January 2002 in London by U2's Bono along with Bobby Shriver and activists from the Jubilee 2000 Drop the Debt campaign. - In telecommunication and data transmission, serial communication is the process of sending data one bit at a time, sequentially, over a communication channel or computer bus. This is in contrast to parallel communication, where several bits are sent as a whole, on a link with several parallel channels. - Information is that which informs. In other words, it is the answer to a question of some kind. It is thus related to data and knowledge, as data represents values attributed to parameters, and knowledge signifies understanding of real things or abstract concepts. As it regards data, the information's existence is not necessarily coupled to an observer (it exists beyond an event horizon, for example), while in the case of knowledge, the information requires a cognitive observer. - Claude Elwood Shannon (April 30, 1916 February 24, 2001) was an American mathematician, electrical engineer, and cryptographer known as "the father of information theory". - In computer science , parallel communication is a method of conveying multiple binary digits ( bits ) simultaneously . It contrasts with serial communication , which conveys only a single bit at a time ; this distinction is one way of characterizing a communications link . The basic difference between a parallel and a serial communication channel is the number of electrical conductors used at the physical layer to convey bits . Parallel communication implies more than one such conductor . For example , an 8 - bit parallel channel will convey eight bits ( or a byte ) simultaneously , whereas a serial channel would convey those same bits sequentially , one at a time . If both channels operated at the same clock speed , the parallel channel would be eight times faster . A parallel channel may have additional conductors for other signals , such as a clock signal to pace the flow of data , a signal to control the direction of data flow , and handshaking signals . Parallel communication is and always has been widely used within integrated circuits , in peripheral buses , and in memory devices such as RAM . Computer system buses , on the other hand , have evolved over time : parallel communication was commonly used in earlier system buses , whereas serial communications are prevalent in modern computers . - Information theory studies the quantification, storage, and communication of information. It was originally proposed by Claude E. Shannon in 1948 to find fundamental limits on signal processing and communication operations such as data compression, in a landmark paper entitled "A Mathematical Theory of Communication". Now this theory has found applications in many other areas, including statistical inference, natural language processing, cryptography, neurobiology, the evolution and function of molecular codes, model selection in ecology, thermal physics, quantum computing, linguistics, plagiarism detection, pattern recognition, and anomaly detection. - Data transmission, digital transmission or digital communications is the transfer of data (a digital bit stream or a digitized analog signal) over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires, optical fibers, wireless communication channels, storage media and computer buses. The data are represented as an electromagnetic signal, such as an electrical voltage, radiowave, microwave, or infrared signal. - Computing is any goal-oriented activity requiring, benefiting from, or creating a mathematical sequence of steps known as an algorithm e.g. through computers. Computing includes designing, developing and building hardware and software systems; processing, structuring, and managing various kinds of information; doing scientific research on and with computers; making computer systems behave intelligently; and creating and using communications and entertainment media. The field of computing includes computer engineering, software engineering, computer science, information systems, and information technology. - Communication (from Latin "commnicre", meaning "to share") is the act of conveying intended meanings from one entity or group to another through the use of mutually understood signs and semiotic rules. Given the paragraphs above, decide what entity has the relation 'subclass of' with 'data transmission'.
Answer:
parallel communication
