Handshaking in the context of computing refers to the process of establishing a communication link between devices or software components. Hardware handshaking involves using physical signals, such as voltage levels or control lines, to synchronize data transmission, ensuring that devices are ready to send or receive data. Software handshaking, on the other hand, relies on protocols and software signals, such as acknowledgments or control messages, to manage data flow and ensure that both sides are prepared for communication. Both methods are essential for reliable data exchange in various applications.
