NETWORK Network is a group of two or more computers or communicating devices that are able to communicate with each other. The computers on a network may be linked through cables, telephone lines, radio waves or satellites. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Computer networks allow people to: · Exchange information (for example, databases, documents, and graphics) via connected workstations. · Share resource equipment (for example, computers, printers and scanners). · Use shared applications (for example, spreadsheets and word processing programs). · Collaborate and communicate electronically. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Components of networks • A computer network comprises the following components: • A minimum of at least 2 computers. • Cables that connect the computers to each other, although wireless communication is becoming more common. • A network interface device on each computer (this is called a network interface card or NIC). • A ‘Switch’ used to switch the data from one point to another. Hubs are outdated and are little used for new installations. • Network operating system software Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Network Criteria • Performance • Mostly measured by throughput and delay • Reliability • The frequency of failure • Recovery time from a failure • Security • Protecting data from • unauthorized access • Damage Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Different Types of Networks • Depending upon the geographical area covered by a network, it is classified as: – Local Area Network (LAN) – Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) – Wide Area Network (WAN) – Personal Area Network (PAN) Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
LAN • LAN stands for Local Area Network. • A LAN is group of computers and networks devices connected together usually within same building. • LAN is high speed and inexpensive. • It uses guided media. • Waves are guided along solid medium such as twisted pair cable/coaxial cable/fiber optic cable. • Ex. University,school,computer lab etc. • Speed of LAN is 100 to 1Gbps. • Is limited in size, typically spanning a few hundred meters,and no more than a mile. • It Has lower cost compared to MAN’s or WAN’s. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
LAN’s can be either wired or wireless. Twisted pair,coaxor fibre optic cable can be used in wired LAN’s. • Nodes in a LAN are linked together with a certain topology. These topologies include: – Bus – Ring – Star Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET

Advantages of LAN • Speed • Cost • Security • E-mail • Resource Sharing Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Disadvantages of LAN • Expensive To Install • Requires Administrative Time • File Server May Fail • Cables May Break Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
MAN • MAN stands for Metropolitan Area Network. • A MAN is larger network that usually span several building in the same city or town. • A MAN is optimized for a larger geographical area than a LAN, ranging from several blocks of buildings to entire cities. • Is larger than a LAN, but smaller than a WAN. • Slow in compare to LAN and inexpensive. • Connected with Fiber Optics Cable. • Used may be guided or may be unguided media. • Ex.-cable tv, or large companies with multiple buildings etc. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
WAN • WAN stands for Wide Area Network. • WAN covers a large geographic area such as country, continent or even whole of the world. • A WAN is two or more LANs connected together. • A WAN is confined within the bounds of state or country. • A WAN is generally slow and relatively expensive. • The Internet is an example of WAN. • Use unguided media i.e.Waves are propagated through atmosphere. • WAN Connected using Internet,Satellite or ISDN land line. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
PAN • PAN stands for PERSONAL AREA NETWORK. • A PAN is a network that is used for communicating among computers and computer devices (including telephones) in close proximity of around a few meters within a room. • PAN’s can be wired or wireless Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
PAN Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
What is I N T E R N E T ? • The largest network of networks in the world. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
What is I N T E R N E T ? • A network of networks, joining many government, university and private computers together and providing an infrastructure for the use of E-mail, bulletin boards, file archives, hypertext documents, databases and other computational resources.

Vinton Cerf • Father of Internet • Co-designer of the TCP/IP networking protocol. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Applications Of Internet • Download programs and files • E-Mail • Voice and Video Conferencing • E-Commerce • File Sharing • Information browsing • Search the web addresses for access through search engine • Chatting and many more… Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Disadvantages of Internet • Theft of personal information such as name, address, credit card number etc. • Virus threats nothing but a program which disrupts the normal functioning of your system. • Spamming refers to receiving unwanted e-mails in bulk, which provide no purpose and needlessly obstruct the entire system. • Pornography This is perhaps the biggest threat related to children’s healthy mental life. A very serious issue concerning the Internet. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Applications of an Intranet • Human resources management • Sales and marketing • Production and operations • Accounting and finance • Help organizations move from a calendar- or schedule-based document-publishing strategy to one that’s based on events or need • Reduce the costs and time of document production Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Internet Services • Electronic Mail (e-mail) • World Wide Web • Telnet • File Transfer Protocol (FTP) • Internet Telephone • Web TV/Radio • Internet Relay Chat • News Groups • Video conferencing Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Electronic Mail (e-Mail) • Distributes e-mail messages and attached files to one or more electronic mailboxes. • Eg:- e-mail addresses • thomas@mes.edu.in • murugan@mesmarampally.org Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET

EXTRANET A network based on Web technologies that links selected resources of the intranet of a company with its customers, suppliers, or other business partners. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Extranets • Advantages of extranets: • Coordination • Feedback • Consumer satisfaction • Cost reduction • Expedited communication Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
TRANSMISSION MODE • The term transmission mode defines the direction of the flow of information between two communication devices i.e. • It tells the direction of signal flow between the two devices. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Transmission Modes • The term transmission mode refer to the manner in which data is sent over the underlying medium. • Transmission modes can be divided into two fundamental categories: 1. Serial 2.Parallel • Figure 9.1 gives an overall taxonomy of the transmission modes. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET 39
A Taxonomy of Transmission Modes Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET 40
Parallel Transmission • Parallel transmission allows transfers of multiple data bits at the same time over separate media • In general, parallel transmission is used with a wired medium that uses multiple independent wires. • Furthermore, the signals on all wires are synchronized so that a bit travels across each of the wires at precisely the same time. • Figure 9.2 illustrates the conceptof parallel transmission. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Figure 4.32 Parallel transmission Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Parallel Transmission • A parallel mode of transmission has two important advantages: • High speed: it can send N bits at the same time • Match to underlying hardware: Internally, computer and communication hardware uses parallel circuitry. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET 43
PARALLEL TRANSMISSION • Disadvantage- there is a significant disadvantage: cost. Parallel transmission requires n communication lines (wires in the example) just to transmit the data stream. Because this is expensive, parallel transmission is usually limited to short distances. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Serial Transmission • Serial transmission • sends one bit at a time • we need only one communication channel rather than n to transmit data between two communicating devices • Figure 9.3 illustrates the configuration Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET 45
Figure 4.33 Serial transmission Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Serial Transmission • The advantage of serial over parallel transmission is that with only one communication channel, serial transmission reduces the cost of transmission over parallel by roughly a factor of n. • Since communication within devices is parallel, conversion devices are required at the interface between the sender and the line (parallel-to-serial) and between the line and the receiver (serial-to-parallel). Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
Serial Transmission • Serial transmission occurs in one of three ways: 1. asynchronous 2. synchronous 3. isochronous. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
ASYNCHORONOUS TRANSMISSION • Sends only one character at a time (one byte of data at a time) • Synchronize two devices using Start Bit and Stop Bit. • Start bit refers to the start of the data. Usually 0 is used for start bit. • Stop bit indicates the end of data, more than one bit can be used for end. Sunil Kumar Sahu,Lecturer RCET
