backbone
Computer; Computer science
A backbone is defined as a high-speed line or series of lines that forms the fastest (measured in bandwidth) path through a network. It often acts as a metanetwork.
backhaul
Computer; Computer science
A backhaul is the terrestrial link between an earth station and a switching or data center.
backplane
Computer; Computer science
A backplane is the physical connection between the interface cards and the data and power distribution buses in a network device such as a router, hub or switch.
baseband
Computer; Computer science
Baseband is the transmission of a signal in its original, unmodulated form. A baseband signal can be analog (e.g., originating from a telephone) or digital (e.g., originating from ...
baud
Computer; Computer science
Baud is a unit of signaling speed. The speed in bauds is the number of discrete changes per second in some aspect of a signal (e.g., voltage in a wire).
brownout
Computer; Computer science
In response to heavy demand, main system voltages are sometimes lowered, leading to brownouts in which power is not lost but reduced.
bottleneck
Computer; Computer science
A bottleneck is defined as the operation with the least capacity in a total system with no alternative routings; the total system can be effectively scheduled by simply scheduling ...
