	OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) Model (Linktionary term) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Wireless systems have "air" interfaces that define how data is transmitted using radio, microwave, or infrared signals.
		Both end systems establish a connection and engage in a dialog to track the delivery of packets across the internetwork.
		Dialogs are not always required, but some applications may require a way of knowing where to restart the transmission of data if a connection is temporarily lost, or may require a periodic dialog to indicate the end of one data set and the start of a new one.

		OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) is a standard description or "reference model" for how messages should be transmitted between any two points in a telecommunication network.
		The actual programming and hardware that furnishes these seven layers of function is usually a combination of the computer operating system, applications (such as your Web browser), TCP/IP or alternative transport and network protocols, and the software and hardware that enable you to put a signal on one of the lines attached to your computer.
		Layer 6: The presentation layer...This is a layer, usually part of an operating system, that converts incoming and outgoing data from one presentation format to another (for example, from a text stream into a popup window with the newly arrived text).
