`processor without the use of input/output channels.
`Internal storage may include other kinds of storage
`such as cache memory and registers. Synonymous
`with internal memory. (T)
`(2) Deprecated term for
`main storage. (3) Synonym for processor storage.
`Notes:
`I. Internal srorage usually refers to one or more
`storage devices that together provide the total
`program-addressable execution space of main
`srorage.
`2. Internal swrage includes processor storage and
`may include other kinds of storage accessed by a
`processor, such as cache storage and special reg(cid:173)

`
`internal trace table Synonym for CP trace table.

`
`internet A collection of packet-switching networks
`that are physically interconnected by Internet Protocol
`(IP) gateways. These networks use protocols that
`allow them to function as a large, composite network.

`share information.
`This
`information
`includes the
`status of TCAM systems, the status of application pro(cid:173)

`Intcr(cid:173)
`nodal sequence number synchronization is used to
`request retransmission from any TCAM node of
`sequence-numbered messages not received in a utility
`session and to retransmit sequence-numbered messages
