collision in switched systems - ggauravr - 01-31-2010

I had this doubt while studying about bridges and switches..Hope someone would help me.
A bridge helps divide the collision domain by dividing an otherwise single network into two or more network segments,so that each network segment acts as a separate collision domain.If two or more devices from different segments intend to send data to nodes which are in the same segment ,does that result in a collision at the receiver segment ??
and similarly I read that there's no collision in a full-duplex switched system,so there's no need for collision handling techniques.. What if two or more nodes in such a system,send data to a same node..does that result in a collision at the receiver side ??
Hope to get help from someone..thanks in advance.
