Subject: Node type definitions


Title: Node type definitions

All,

        my starter definitions for the types of node from Sander's proposal, feel free to add/refine and argue:

Definitions of node types

Store and forward
The node completes receipt of the transmission before beginning transmission to the next mode. i.e 2 separate sequential processes that the second does not start before successful completion of the first.

Store and collect
The node completes receipt of the transmission before allowing it to be retrieved (pulled). i.e. 2 separate process that the second cannot be attempted until the first is complete but the second process is always initiated by the other party.

Streaming
The node passes information as soon as it is received.  i.e. it just routes data to the next node as soon as possible it does not store any data.
