Reliable communication can take place between all network levels, including peer-to-peer communication and cross-network communication.

This makes it possible for configure the safety network architecture for implementation of safety programmable controllers or peer-to-peer communication between sensors and actuators.

To give you an idea of how peer-to-peer communication can be used to exchange data between two devices, here are a few examples.

The purpose of this implementation is to provide a standardized, portable NAT-friendly framework for peer-to-peer communications with flexible congestion control, depending on application.

Entropy was a decentralized, peer-to-peer communication network designed to be resistant to censorship, much like Freenet.

When the disaster mode is enabled and the cellular network is down, Twimight uses peer-to-peer communication to let users tweet in any circumstances.

Class B added expanded triggering, such as multicast and peer-to-peer communications between instruments and time-based trigger events.

What was specifically addressed was the nature of peer-to-peer communications, meaning point-to-point, where no third party is involved with the traffic.

This system was the first commercial use of client-server technology, peer-to-peer communications, local area network (LAN) simultaneous backup, and remote initialization.

The longer-term goal of Max was to facilitate peer-to-peer communications of many kinds of files, not just photos.
