Question six is asymmetrical: Are things going in the right direction or on the wrong track? (The West Wing, Season 1, Episode 21, Toby).

Not symmetrical
layout term
Something with sides which do not match
Provides differing bandwidths in different directions 56K modems are asymmetrical; they have a maximum speed of 56K for downloading, but only 28 8K or 33 6K for uploading

response Term used to describe the comparative shapes of the boost/cut curves for variable equalizers The cut curves do not mirror the boost curves, but instead are quite narrow, intended to act as notch filters

Without symmetry, irregular or unequal, used to describe some animals such as sponges
Having no proper proportions; unsymmetrical
a design in which there is balance but the elements are not duplicated on each side A block such as maple leaf is asymmetrical since all four of its corners are not the same In a block, this makes for interesting possibilities since different design elements appear depending on how the blocks are rotated Any block divided down the middle by a diagonal line, such as Log Cabin, is asymmetrical
Having each side different
{s} not symmetrical, lacking balance and proportion
A type of balance where elements are arranged differently on each side of an imaginary midline

When one side of the body differs from the other
Incommensurable
Offering different data rates in the upstream and downstream directions, where upstream is the direction from the end-user to the network, and downstream is the direction from the network to the user
not bilaterally symmetrical
lack of symmetry; when divided in the middle and the halves are not at all similar
Data transfer where upstream and downstream data flow occurs at different speeds, usually a higher rate of speed downstream, and a slower rate upstream Reflective of typical end-user Internet usage patterns, where more data is received than sent, and no servers (such as web server) are in operation
Providing differing bandwidth in different directions 56k modems are asymmetrical: they offer a maximum speed of 56k for downloading, but only 28 8k or 33 6k for uploading
is an uneven placement of a set of objects, values, or ideas in a sculpture, painting or environment in order to create balance Example: a large object on one side of a composition is balanced by a small object placed on the opposite side (see symmetrical)
Something that is asymmetrical has two sides or halves that are different in shape, size, or style. asymmetrical shapes. symmetrical
different on one side than the other when divided by a centerline A garment design in which the right side is not the same as the left side Also, informal balance
irregular in shape or outline; "asymmetrical features"; "a dress with an crooked hemline" characterized by asymmetry in the spatial arrangement or placement of parts or components
Not symmetrical; wanting proportion; esp
Providing differing bandwidth in different directions 56 K modems are asymmetrical: they offer a maximum speed of 56 kbps (actually 53 ) for downloading, but only 28 8 kbps or 33 6 kbps for uploading
characterized by asymmetry in the spatial arrangement or placement of parts or components
asymmetrous
asymmetrical bars
two bars set at different heights used in gymnastics
asymmetry
Want of symmetry, or proportion between the parts of a thing, especially want of bilateral symmetry
asymmetry
Lacking a common measure between two objects or quantities; Incommensurability
asymmetry
{n} a want of just proportion
asymmetric
Not symmetrical; wanting proportion; esp
asymmetric
A data connection is asymmetric when upstream and downstream transmission speeds are substantially different Some cable modem providers offer highly asymmetric service, where downstream speeds are much greater than upstream, in attempts to discourage telecommuting and home office uses of the network Slow upstream connections limit the ability of the public to author Internet content, rather than merely consume it
asymmetric
Different or uneven speeds by direction The faster direction is called the main channel while the slower direction is the back channel
asymmetric
No recognizable pattern or proportion In public key cryptography, an assymetric set of keys leaves no sensible way of associating them
asymmetric
To use the principle of informal, not formal balance A garment may be on one shoulder or draped to one side First introduced in the 1920's by Madeleine Vionnet of Paris
asymmetric
Asymmetric means the same as asymmetrical. symmetric
asymmetric
Of a shape, not symmetric
asymmetric
Not similar in size, shape, form or arrangement of parts on opposite sides of a line, point or plane
asymmetric
A term used to explain the offset current waveform that can occur when a fault is initiated; the composite quantity of the transient current (dc component) and the steady state current (ac component); usually considered to be 1 6 times the symmetric for most electrical distribution systems
asymmetric
Faster in one direction than the other The faster direction is called the main channel and the slower direction is referred to as the back channel
asymmetric
not bilaterally symmetrical
asymmetric
This refers to data transmission where the upstream and downstream speeds are different Typically, the downstream speeds are much greater than the upstream speeds Contrast with symmetric Related terms: Data, Symmetric, Downstream, Upstream
asymmetric
Refers to a data connection where upstream and downstream transmission speeds are substantially different Local broadband operators generally provide asymmetric services with upstream speeds about half of downstream speeds
asymmetric
Not symmetric, i e , unbalanced An asymmetric telecom channel has more bandwidth (i e speed) in one direction than in the other There are reasons for this, for example, your PC receives more off the Internet than it sends
asymmetric
Incommensurable
asymmetric
{s} not symmetrical, lacking balance and proportion
asymmetric
Unequal distribution about one or more axes
asymmetric
characterized by asymmetry in the spatial arrangement or placement of parts or components
asymmetrically
in a manner lacking balance and proportion
asymmetrically
in an asymmetrical manner; "they were asymmetrically arranged"
asymmetrically
in an asymmetrical manner; "they were asymmetrically arranged
asymmetrically
In an asymmetric manner
asymmetries
plural of asymmetry
asymmetry
The parts of a design organized so that one side differs from the other without destroying the overall harmony
asymmetry
Lacking symmetry, that is, lacking balance in shape, size, and relative position of parts on opposite sides of the body or in actions taken by the body
asymmetry
Uneven, irregular design
asymmetry
That which causes something to not be symmetrical
asymmetry
In networking, a system in which the relationship between two entities is inherently unequal, with each entity restricted to a set of operations and prerogatives defined by its role in the relationship
asymmetry
A lack of equivalence between two things, such as the unequal tax treatment of interest expense and dividend payments [Harvey]
asymmetry
Asymmetry is the appearance that something has when its two sides or halves are different in shape, size, or style. the asymmetry of Van de Velde's designs of this period. symmetry
asymmetry
the depiction in a work of art of two sides as being not identical without impairing the general harmony of the work Asymmetry is used to prevent a work from appearing static and superficial, as no two sides of a life form are identical
asymmetry
(mathematics) a lack of symmetry
asymmetry
{i} lack of symmetry, lack of balance and proportion
asymmetry
Aspects of letterforms that depart from mirror images relationships between letter pairs, especially 'b-d' and 'p-q', and within individual letters, such as 'T' in some typefaces
asymmetry
lacking symmetry; parts of the body are unequal in shape or size
asymmetry
