In telecommunication, '''speed of service''' is the time for a message to be received. For example: #The time between release of a message by the originator to receipt of the message by the addressee, as perceived by the end user. (''originator-to-recipient speed of service'') #The time between entry of a message into a communications system and receipt of the message at the terminating communications facility, ''i.e.,'' the communications facility serving the addressee, as measured by the system.
