switch at the same time. Among other things,
this means that switches have a significantly
higher total bandwidth (throughput) than hubs.
Moreover, switches learn which stations are
connected to which ports, meaning that addi-
tional data transfers will not result in any ports
being subjected to unnecessary loads, i.e., that
data will only be forwarded to the port con-
nected to the intended destination. With the
exception of their higher price, switches are
superior to hubs in every way.

Windows Embedded Compact 7 pro
A component-based, multi-functional real-time
operating system designed to meet the needs
of even the most demanding industrial applic-
ations. The operating system will unpack itself
into the device's RAM memory every time the
device is started, making it possible to de-ener-
gize the device without the need for a UPS or
other similar precautions. As the successor to
WinCE 6, Windows Embedded Compact 7 fea-
tures a large selection of standard tech-
nologies, communication servers/clients, and
web services. • Fast boot time • Multi-touch
support (two-finger) • Long-term availability
WINS
Windows Internet Name Service, Name res-
olution service within Microsoft networks. In
order for this service to be used, there must be
a WINS server. If there is no WINS server,
names will be resolved using broadcasts and
other mechanisms. A fixed name can be
assigned to an IP address in WINS so that a
computer will continue to be recognized even if
its IP address changes.
