| 20 | A Device is Direct if it provides access to its controlled sequences as in-memory arrays rather than <I>via</I> a socket-like interface. The difference between a Device which is Direct and one which is not is reflected in the specifications of the various Device refinements, <I>e.g.</I>, <A HREF="source.html">Source</A> and <A HREF="sink.html">Sink</A>.</P> |
