Protocol (Cellular Networking)

A specification of the messages used to communicate over one or more Interfaces


Protocol (Clinical Trials)

A study plan on which all clinical trials are based. The plan is carefully designed to safeguard the health of the participants as well as answer specific research questions. A protocol describes what types of people may participate in the trial; the schedule of tests, procedures, medications, and dosages; and the length of the study. While in a clinical trial, participants following a protocol are seen regularly by the research staff to monitor their health and to determine the safety and effectiveness of their treatment (See Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria).


Protocol (Computer Hardware)

An agreed-upon format for transmitting data between two devices. The protocol determines the following: the type of error checking to be used; data compression method, if any; how the sending device will indicate that it has finished sending a message; and how the receiving device will indicate that it has received a message. There are a variety of standard protocols from which programmers can choose. Each has particular advantages and disadvantages; for example, some are simpler than others, some are more reliable, and some are faster. From a user's point of view, the only interesting aspect about protocols is that your computer or device must support the right ones if you want to communicate with other computers. The protocol can be implemented either in hardware or in software.


Protocol (Computer Technology)

This is the behavior that computers must follow in order to understand one another. Think of it as a language. If two computers don't use the same network protocol, then they cannot communicate.


Protocol (Computer Virus)


A set of rules enabling computers or devices to exchange data with one another with as little error as possible. The rules govern issues, such as error checking and data compression methods. Also see communications protocol.


Protocol (Concert Lighting)

An electronic communication signal by which the electronic devices in a lighting system can share information. Standard lighting protocols include AMX, DMX, MIDI, as well as many proprietary protocols utilized by specific manufacturers.
See Also: MIDI DMX AMX


Protocol (DTV)

Set of "rules" defining exchange of data, including timing, format, sequencing, error checking, etc.

Protocol (Digital Imaging)

The set of conventions between communications lines - it exits to exchange information between a host computer and its interface.


Protocol (E-Learning)

A formal set of standards, rules, or formats for exchanging data that assures uniformity between computers and applications.


Protocol (Environment)

A series of formal steps for conducting a test.


Protocol (Environmental Health)

The detailed plan for conducting a scientific procedure. A protocol for measuring a chemical in soil, water or air describes the way in which samples should be collected and analyzed.


Protocol (HDTV)

Set of syntax rules defining exchange of data including items such as timing, format, sequencing, error checking, etc.


See more HDTV Terms ...

Protocol (HIV and AIDs)

The overall design, or blueprint, of a clinical study.


Protocol (Hard Drive Recovery)

A convention of data transmission that defines timing, control format, and data representation.


Protocol (Health Informatics)

Se o instruction tha describ th procedur t b followe whe investigatin particula se o finding i patient o th metho t b followe i th managemen o give diseas Se also Algorithm Car Pathway Guideline Practic Parameter.


Protocol (Hepatitis B)

A detailed plan of a scientific experiment or medical treatment. A specific step-by-step procedure is used in clinical trials to test new drugs and treatments for diseases such as chronic hepatitis B.


Protocol (Information Security)

A set of rules for governing the transmission and receipt of data.


Protocol (Interactive Marketing)

A uniform set of rules that enable two devices to connect and transmit data to one another. Protocols determine how data are transmitted between computing devices and over networks. They define issues such as error control and data compression methods. The protocol determines the following: type of error checking to be used, data compression method (if any), how the sending device will indicate that it has finished a message and how the receiving device will indicate that it has received the message. Internet protocols include TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol), HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), FTP (File Transfer Protocol), and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).


Protocol (Internet)

A set of standards that define how traffic and communications are handled by a computer or network routers.


See more Internet Terms ...

Protocol (Linux, Red Hat)

A standard framework or procedure for communication and data transmission.


Protocol (Networking)

A “language” for communicating on a network. Protocols are sets of standards or rules used to define, format and transmit data across a network. There are many different protocols used on networks. For example, most web pages are transmitted using the HTTP protocol.


Protocol (Oncology)


A protocol is a treatment plan or outline. In clinical trials, a protocol is the plan for using an experimental procedure or treatment.


See more Oncology Terms ...

Protocol (Pituitary)

An outline of care; a treatment plan.


Protocol (Political)

A document that records the basic agreements reached in negotiations prior to the final form in which the agreement appears. Protocol also refers to the diplomatic manners that apply in ceremonial and formal business between states (seating arrangements at dinners, procedures at conferences, etc.)


Protocol (Prostate Cancer)

A precise set of methods by which a research study is to be carried out


Protocol (RAID Drive Recovery)

A convention of data transmission that defines timing, control format, and data representation.


Protocol (Security Testing)

A set of conventions that govern the interaction of processes, devices, and other components within a system.
(ISO) A set of semantic and syntactic rules that determines the behavior of functional units in achieving communication.
(I) A set of rules (i.e., formats and procedures) to implement and control some type of association (e.g., communication) between systems. (E.g., see: Internet Protocol.)
Agreed-upon methods of communications used by computers. A specification that describes the rules and procedures that products should follow to perform activities on a network, such as transmitting data. If they use the same protocols, products from different vendors should be able to communicate on the same network.
A set of rules and formats, semantic and syntactic, that permits entities to exchange information.
Code of correct conduct: "safety protocols"; "academic protocol".
Forms of ceremony and etiquette observed by diplomats and heads of state.


Protocol (Shipping)

See: International Agreements Title and Rank.

Protocol (Storage Media)

A standard that specifies the format of data and rules to be followed in the data communication and network environments.


Protocol (Supply Chain)

Communication standards that determine message content and format, enabling uniformity of transmissions.


Protocol (Teacher Evaluation)

(1) the rules and formalities that guide the administration and scoring of an assessment and the implementation of an evaluation. (2) a record or document of evidence and information relating to an assessment or evaluation. See Scoring Rubric.


Protocol (Technology)

Simply, a "language" spoken between computers to help them exchange information. More technically, it's a formal description of message formats and the rules that two computers must follow to exchange those messages. Porotocols differ depending on what is being communicated between computers. Protocols can describe low-level details of machine-to-machine interfaces (like the order in which bits and bytes are sent across a wire) or high-level exchanges between allocation programs (the way in which two programs transfer a file across the Internet). See PAP and POP.


Protocol (Weightlifting)

The international weightlifting term for the scoresheet, on which the complete competition is recorded, including each successful and unsuccessful lift and totals for all competitors.
