dau[eth]i, Sw. & Dan. d["o]d, Goth. dau[thorn]us; from a verb
meaning to die. See Die, v. i., and cf. Dead.]
1. The cessation of all vital phenomena without capability of
resuscitation, either in animals or plants.
[1913 Webster]

Note: Local death is going on at all times and in all parts
of the living body, in which individual cells and
elements are being cast off and replaced by new; a
process essential to life. General death is of two
kinds; death of the body as a whole (somatic or
systemic death), and death of the tissues. By the
former is implied the absolute cessation of the
functions of the brain, the circulatory and the
respiratory organs; by the latter the entire
disappearance of the vital actions of the ultimate
structural constituents of the body. When death takes
place, the body as a whole dies first, the death of the
tissues sometimes not occurring until after a
considerable interval. --Huxley.

Syn: Death, Decease, Demise, Departure, Release.

Usage: Death applies to the termination of every form of
existence, both animal and vegetable; the other words
only to the human race. Decease is the term used in
law for the removal of a human being out of life in
the ordinary course of nature. Demise was formerly
confined to decease of princes, but is now sometimes
used of distinguished men in general; as, the demise
of Mr. Pitt. Departure and release are peculiarly
terms of Christian affection and hope. A violent death
is not usually called a decease. Departure implies a
friendly taking leave of life. Release implies a
deliverance from a life of suffering or sorrow.

(IEEE 802.4) A networking protocol which mediates
access to a bus topology network as though it were a {token
ring}. This eliminates the collisions found in {carrier
sense collision detect} protocols. Nodes can be configured
to pass the token in any order, not necessarily related to
their physical ordering on the bus. The token is sent from
one node to its successor in the logical ring by broadcast on
the bus and is ignored by the other nodes.

(1996-12-13)
token ring
(foldoc)
token ring

A computer local area network arbitration scheme in which
conflicts in the transmission of messages are avoided by the
granting of "tokens" which give permission to send. A station
keeps the token while transmitting a message, if it has a
message to transmit, and then passes it on to the next
station.

Often, "Token Ring" is used to refer to the IEEE 802.5 token
ring standard, which is the most common type of token ring.
