Smart Card Communication Model
the communication pathway between the card and the communication pathway between the card and the host is half-duplexed;the host is half-duplexed;
(that is, the data can either be sent from the host to (that is, the data can either be sent from the host to the card or from the card to the host but not both at the card or from the card to the host but not both at the same time.)the same time.)
smart card speak to other computer by using their smart card speak to other computer by using their own data packets-called APDUs (application protocol own data packets-called APDUs (application protocol data units) data units)
