implicit addressing
A form of addressing, usually used with tapes, in which the data's address is inferred from the form of the access request.
Tape commands that do not include an explicit block address but implicitly specify the next or previous block from the current tape position, from which the block address must be inferred by the device. See explicit addressing.
