Glossary Term "ALOHA"

ALOHA

Description A networking algorithm allowing multiple users to share a single networking channel, while stille permitting each user to transmit whenever they want to. The algorithm relies on each user's system detecting if their transmission "collides" with the transmission of another user. If a collision occurs, both users "back off" for a random period of time before transmitting again.
