A bus stand is a designated parking location where a bus or coach vehicle coach waits out of service between scheduled public transport services. Bus stand is also often an alternative name for specific bus stop s inside a bus station . A bus stand is usually employed to allow a bus to layover at a bus terminus , without giving the appearance of being in service, or blocking the stop from use by other buses that are in service. Bus stands also allow short term parking for driver changes or driver breaks. In the simplest case, a bus turnout type of bus stop is extended, and buses can layover away from the stop if necessary. In locations where buses cannot remain stationary for long, nearby but separate bus stands may be provided where other bus garage bus parking is not conveniently located. Due to their public transport use, bus stands will often be specifically covered by local legislation. Parking of non public service vehicle PSV s in bus stands may be prohibited. For pollution concerns, drivers may be required to switch their engines off if in a bus stand, as opposed to when stopped in a bus stop. In public bus and coach stations, buses will oftend be marshalled into specific parking slots, which act as stands where buses queue for an available slot at a departure point, such as in Victoria Coach Station in London. At the appropriate time the bus can be moved the short distance to the stop, to begin boarding.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In computer science , a local bus is a computer bus that connects directly, or almost directly, from the Central processing unit CPU to one or more slots on the expansion bus . The significance of direct connection to the CPU is avoiding the bottleneck engineering bottleneck created by the expansion bus, thus providing fast throughput . There are several local buses built into various types of computers to increase the speed of data transfer. Local buses for expanded memory and video boards are the most common. VESA Local Bus is an example of a local bus design. Although VL Bus was later succeeded by Accelerated Graphics Port AGP , it is not correct to categorize AGP as a local bus. Whereas VL Bus operated on the CPU s memory bus at the CPU s clock speed, an AGP peripheral runs at specified clock speeds that run independently of the CPU clock usually using a divider of the CPU clock .

In computing , bus mastering is a feature supported by many computer busbus architecture s that enables a device connected to the bus to initiate transactions. It is also referred to as first party DMA , in contrast with third party DMA where a system Channel I O DMA controller also known as peripheral processor, I O processor, or channel actually does the transfer. Some types of buses allow only one device typically the Central Processing Unit CPU , or its proxy to initiate transactions. Most modern bus architectures, such as Peripheral Component Interconnect PCI , allow multiple devices to bus master because it significantly improves performance for general purpose operating system s. Some real time operating system s prohibit peripherals from becoming bus masters, because the scheduler can no longer arbitrate for the bus and hence cannot provide deterministic latency. While bus mastering theoretically allows one peripheral device to directly communicate with another, in practice almost all peripherals master the bus exclusively to perform Direct memory access DMA to main memory. If multiple devices are able to master the bus, there needs to be an arbitration scheme to prevent multiple devices attempting to drive the bus simultaneously. A number of different schemes are used for this for example SCSI has a fixed priority for each SCSI ID. PCI does not specify the algorithm to use, leaving it up to the implementation to set priorities.

Bus contention , in computer design , is an undesirable state of the computer busbus in which more than one device on the bus attempts to place values on the bus at the same time. Most bus architectures require their devices follow an arbitration protocol carefully designed to make the likelihood of contention negligible. ref citation title Structured Computer Organization first Andrew last Tanenbaum author link Andrew Tanenbaum publisher Prentice Hall pages 121 124 year 1990 edition 3rd isbn 0 13 852872 1 . ref However, when devices on the bus have logic errors, manufacturing defects or are driven beyond their design speeds, arbitration may break down and contention may result. Contention may also arise on systems which have a programmable memory mapping and when illegal values are written to the hardware register registers controlling the mapping. Contention can lead to erroneous operation, and in unusual cases, damage to the hardware&mdash such as fusing of the bus wiring. Bus contention is sometimes countered by buffering the output of memory mapped devices. However, it has been noted that high impedance from one device will still interfere with the bus values of other devices. Currently, no standard solution exists for data bus contention between memory devices, such as EEPROM and SRAM. References reflist Computer bus Comp sci stub Category Computer buses ... more details

Multiple issues wikify March 2012 confusing June 2009 Bus coupler is a device which is used to switch from one Busbar bus to the other without any interruption in power supply and without creating hazardous arcs. It is achieved with the help of circuit breaker and isolator s. Characteristics MIL STD 1553B specifies the transformer characteristics and turns ratio of 1.4 1 with the higher turns on the isolation resistor side of the stub. They MIL STD 1553B also specifies the isolation resistors that are placed in series with each connection to the bus. Normally bus couplers are available with 1.4 1 transformer ratios and 59 ohm 2 watt 1 resistor s. For special applications, couplers can be supplied with different transform ratios e.g., 1 1 and other Resistance electricity resistance values e.g., 54.9 ohms . Bus coupler configurations are available as non terminated or internally terminated. If two or more non terminated couplers are used on a bus, then the couplers at each end of the bus must be terminated externally with 78 ohm terminator s on the unused bus connections of the end couplers. Alternately, internally single terminated couplers with or without the non functional bus connectors can be supplied. Even if only one non terminated coupler acts as the bus because all devices bus controller, remote terminals, etc. are connected to the coupler s stubs, the external bus connections of the coupler must be terminated. A dual terminated coupler with or without non functional bus connectors can be employed where the coupler acts as the bus without other couplers. RFI dust cap s with or without safety chains are recommended for all unused stub ports. Data bus couplers are readily available in 2 through 8 stubs and in various sizes and shapes of boxes and slim inline models. Also a variety of connector s are offered with couplers.
