Collision avoidance (networking)

In computer networking and telecommunication, collision avoidance methods try to avoid resource contention by attempting to avoid simultaneous attempts to access the same resource.

Collision avoidance methods include prior scheduling of timeslots, carrier detection schemes, randomized access times, and exponential backoff after collision detection.
