Talk:Message switching
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The first sentence ("message switching was the precursor of packet switching") seems to indicate that message switching and packet switching are two distinct paradigms. The second sentence ("Message switching systems are nowadays mostly implemented over packet-switched or circuit-switched data networks") seems to suggest that packet switching is an implementation of message switching. Can we clarify the relationship between message switching and packet switching? (My guess is that the second sentence may be in error, but I'm not a telecommunications expert, so I don't know.) —Caesura(t) 17:02, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
