What's the difference between correlation and interconnection?

Correlation


Definition:

  • (n.) Reciprocal relation; corresponding similarity or parallelism of relation or law; capacity of being converted into, or of giving place to, one another, under certain conditions; as, the correlation of forces, or of zymotic diseases.

Interconnection


Definition:

  • (n.) Connection between; mutual connection.

Example Sentences:
