Une diode réseau est un équipement de cloisonnement un peu particulier qui vise à permettre la circulation d'information dans un seul sens. Comme tous les protocoles réseaux habituels sont bi-directionnels, ceci n'est possible qu'en incorporant dans la diode réseau ou dans son environnement immédiat des serveurs mandataires chargés de simuler le comportement du réseau extérieur à la diode. 3, record 1, French, - diode%20r%C3%A9seau

Code on Technical Barriers to Trade :... the Tokyo round had mixed results. It failed to come to grips with the fundamental problems affecting farm trade and also stopped short of providing a new agreement on "safeguards"(emergency import measures). Nevertheless, a series of agreements on non-tariff barriers did emerge from the negotiations, in some cases interpreting existing GATT [General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade] rules, in others breaking entirely new ground. In most cases, only a relatively small number of(mainly industrialized) GATT members subscribed to theses agreements and arrangements. Because they were not accepted by the full GATT membership, they were often informally called "code". 4, record 3, English, - Agreement%20on%20Technical%20Barriers%20to%20Trade
