handshaking
-
Predetermined
hardware

designed
to

Handshaking
often
concerns
the
exchange
of
messages

packet
s
of
data
between
two
systems
with
limited
buffer
s
.
A
simple
handshaking
protocol
might
only
involve

receiver
sending
a
message
meaning
"
I
received
your
last
message
and
I
am
ready
for
you
to
send
me
another
one
."
A
more
complex
handshaking
protocol
might
allow
the
sender
to
ask
the
receiver
if
he
is
ready
to
receive
or
for
the
receiver
to
reply
with
a
negative
acknowledgement
meaning
"
I
did
not
receive
your
last
message
correctly
,
please
resend
it
" (
e
.
g
.
if
the
data
was
corrupted
en
route
).
Hardware handshaking
uses
voltage
levels
or
pulses
on
wires
to
carry
the
handshaking
signals
whereas
software handshaking
uses
data
units

g

ASCII
characters

by
some
underlying
communication
medium
.

or
software
handshaking
