ATIS is the leading technical planning and standards development organization committed to the rapid development of global, market-driven standards for the information, entertainment and communications industry.
The concept of providing Internet access (usually Web access and e-mail) in a format that can be viewed on a standard television set rather than on the customer's computer. The service usually consists of a set top box that is connected to the user's television, a keyboard, and a telephone line.
Industry:Telecommunications
The concept of making basic local telephone service (and, in some cases, certain other telecommunications and information services) available at an affordable price to all people within a country or specified jurisdictional area.
Industry:Telecommunications
The concept of keeping information of different security classes apart in a system. Note: Separation may be implemented by temporal, physical, logical or cryptographic techniques.
Industry:Telecommunications
The comprehensive set of interfaces, services, and supporting formats, plus user aspects for interoperability or portability of applications, data, or people, as specified by information technology standards and profiles.
Industry:Telecommunications
The complete set of representations defined by a particular code and language.
Industry:Telecommunications
The complete path between two terminals over which one-way or two-way communications may be provided. 2. An electronic path between two or more points, capable of providing a number of channels. 3. A number of conductors connected together for the purpose of carrying an electrical current. 4. An electronic closed-loop path among two or more points used for signal transfer. 5. A number of electrical components, such as resistors, inductances, capacitors, transistors, and power sources connected together in one or more closed loops. 6. A fully operative communications path established in the normal circuit layout and currently used for message, WATS access, TWX, or private line services.
Industry:Telecommunications
The complete closed path taken by magnetic flux. 2. A region of ferromagnetic material, such as the core of a transformer or solenoid, that contains essentially all of the magnetic flux.
Industry:Telecommunications
The compilation of unclassified individual data systems and data elements resulting in the totality of the information being classified.
Industry:Telecommunications
The company accepting the billing information, initiating the validation process, and recording the details of the call.
Industry:Telecommunications
The communication channel associated with a virtual channel connection (VCC) that provides for the transport of asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cells among ATM active elements. A VCC is an association established at the ATM Layer between two or more endpoints for the purpose of user-user, user-network, or network-network information transfer. A VCC consists of the concatenation of virtual channel links (VCLs. ) A VCL is a means of unidirectional transport of ATM cells between the points where a VCI value is assigned and the point where the value is translated or removed. The VPI and VCI within the ATM cell header associates each cell with a particular VCL over a given physical link. The points at which the ATM cell payload is passed to the AAL for processing signify the endpoints of a VCC.
