English Dictionary: data transfer rate by the DICT Development Group
1 result for data transfer rate
From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   data transfer rate
  
      (Or "throughput") The ammount of {data}
      transferred in one direction over a link divided by the time
      taken to transfer it, usually expressed in bits or bytes per
      second.
  
      Where data transfer is not continuous throughout the given
      time interval, the data transfer rate is thus an average rate
      that will be lower than the peak rate.   The peak or maximum
      possible rate may itself be lower than the {capacity} of the
      communication channel used if the channel is shared, or part
      of the signal is not considered as data, e.g. {checksum} or
      {routing} information.
  
      The other important characteristic of a channel is its
      {latency}.
