Transmitting and Receiving

Transmitting and Receiving is an information process.

Desciption
Transmitting and recieving allows an information system to exchange its data/information with other information systems. The other information systems can be remote (such as systems on the Internet) or another part of your personal information system (such as a printer). In either case, the transmitting and receiving process prepares the data to be sent out of your main system, and performs some checks on the data coming in from another system. One of the checks it performs on received data is for accuracy. Your system may be required to take some action to correct any data errors it detects.There is no need for transmitting if there is no receiving and vice versa. Not all information systems have this process.
