ISP Information:
The act of updating one set of data based on another similar set which may be more up to date. Synchronization can go one way or two ways, and follows a set of rules defined by the synchronization procedure. Synchronization is often used to update data such as address book data on PDAs, or e-mail on laptops that may not always be connected to the office e-mail server.
ISP Glossary:
Synchronize - I don't believe Western Union had much in the way of "last mile" wiresexcept in the largest cities. Elsewhere they had to lease pairs fromthe telephone company.It's my understanding that when W.U. acquired TWX from the Bell Systemthere was a period of time in which they got to use the Bell wireplant at below-market rates; but when that ended they had to pay thesame price as everyone else and that hastened the demise of TWX/Telex.W.U. introduced Telex to the U.S. about 1958. In my opinion this wasa major mistake; obviously they thought it was a good idea. It putW.U. into direct competition with Bell, TWX versus Telex; and Bellpretty much had a lock on the local loops needed to furnish theservice. Bell also soon after introduced the Data Phone data sets(modems leased from the telephone company) which allowed customers toput any kind of terminal they wanted on the switched network. Whiletelephone toll calls were higher priced than TWX calls, the cost oftelephone calls was falling rapidly.Bringing in Telex required W.U. to acquire a lot of electromechanicalswitching equipment (most if not all of it from Siemens) at a timewhen electronic switching was about to arrive and push the former offthe stage. W.U. also had to acquire a bunch of 50-baud teleprinters,first from Siemens and later from Teletype. Soon after, TWX went frommanual switchboards and special circuits to using the existing voiceswitching plant; and voice was such a major user of the plant that themarginal cost of running TWX over it was quite small.Customers were ill-served since TWX and Telex didn't interconnect (atfirst) and thus a customer had to subscribe to both services or be cutoff from part of their business relations.Then W.U. acquired TWX at a time when the best years of both serviceswere past. I wonder if the executives of either company realized itat the time. W.U. had spent a lot of money on fax for many years butnever realized a large payoff from it. There was about to be a newgeneration of fax machines which blew away the market for TWX/Telex.(Aided considerably by the CarterFone decision)jhhaynes at earthlink dot net
