Information-Transfer Transaction
  • A coordinated sequence of user and telecommunication system activities whose ultimate purpose is to cause user information present at a source user to become present at a destination user. Note: An information-transfer transaction is typically divided into three consecutive phases: the access phase, the information-transfer phase, and the disengagement phase. See also access phase, disconnect, disconnect signal, disengagement attempt, disengagement phase, information transfer, information-transfer phase.
