Today, the island is a somewhat sleepy place. Other than occasional stopover from flights ...

Abstract Page

The wireless communication system through which workstations and computers exchange data with each other is called wireless network. In this network radio waves are used as the transmission medium. Wireless network gives freedom to move from one place to another with mobiles, laptops etc. without the loss of network connectivity and without any need of wires. Wireless network can be used many areas like universities, hospitals, banks, shops, organizations, airports, coffee shops etc, therefore the need arises to protect the wireless network from any unauthorized access. Various security protocols have been defined like WEP, 802.1x standard, WPA and WPA2. ...

Proposal Argument For Network Secuirty
Abstract
Network Security is an issue whose adverse effects on the society is often undermined. Although the past few years have witnessed a steady rise in the awareness of network security, the issue still has not gained enough importance (Ciprian, 2012). The government is trying to imbibe measures of information and network security but, the efforts are still half-hearted and not well-researched. The whole world today makes extensive use of the “network”, however what people do not pay any attention to is the importance of maintaining the security of the network.

The types of Networks

A computer network describes a collection of computers and other devices. These computers and devices are interconnected by channels of communication which allow for the sharing of information and resources among the said devices that are interconnected. The classification of networks follows different characteristics such as the medium used for the transportation of data, the protocols of communication used, scale, topology, and the scope of an organization as stated by Akyildiz & Rudin (2013).
The categories of networks, therefore, constitute; a local area network, a Wide Area Network, a Metropolitan Area Network, Wireless Local Area Network, System Area Network, and ...

Company network architecture

Part I
In designing a network, several factors are considered and are dictated by the use of the network. Looking at the case in hand, the network is supposed to address the five departments each separately, communication within the departments and within the local geographical locations (California and New Jersey) and intercity communication between the two business units.
Looking at the five departments, each department should have its own network so as to operate effectively. This means that the department will have its own network architecture depending on the number of employees it has. The main objective of ...

Computer Networks

When two or more processing are connected together either to share any resource like printer, data exchange or electronic communication, it is called a network. There are many different ways in which the computers and devices can be connected to each other in the network including cables, radio waves, infrared, satellites, etc (Tanenbaum 1).
There are two possible types of networks; peer to peer and server based which is mostly called client-server network. In peer to peer network, computers are connected in a group for the purpose of sharing data/ information, and resources. There is no controller or a ...

Description of FCAPS model

FCAPS, an acronym for fault, configuration, accounting, performance and security is an International Organization Standardization (ISO) Telecommunications network management framework and model for network management. This is a management category in which network management tasks are defined by the ISO model. Accounting is always replaced with administration in most non-billing organisations. The term FCAPS was first introduced in the early 1980s. The main objective at this time was to define clearly five separate protocols for every functional area. Currently, this model places these working categories of the network system management into five distinct levels. These levels of management are the ...

Socket: a socket is a combination of an IP address (where the computer is located) and a port and places it together into a single identity – a good analogy is a telephone where the actual phone connection is a combination of a given phone number and a particular extension. In computer networking, an Internet socket or network socket is an endpoint of a bidirectional inter-process communication flow across an Internet Protocol-based computer network, such as the Internet.

Introduction

Designing a perfect warehouse is a concept that exists only in books. It is almost impossible to find a perfect solution and then implement that with real life constraints. A logistics network has so many parameters and variability that it is not possible to design a perfect warehouse (Harrington, 2007). Designing a logistics network with many suppliers, customers, warehouses and plants is exhaustively detail-laden. Among all types of logistics network, design with one central network design is mostly used. With one warehouse logistics network, many theoretical aspects of network optimization are often easy. This paper will discuss the design of a warehouse in a logistics network.

Information security is very crucial especially for organizations whose information can be accessed through computer network. As network administrators try to set up security systems for data and information for such organizations, hackers and other cyber criminals also tries on how they can get the right of entry into the same systems illegally. Port scanning is used by both administrators as well as the hackers though for different intentions. Port scanning is thus one of the popular approaches used by administrators to examine or investigate information system security, penetration testing. It legally tries to break into ...

Exploring the Transport Layer

The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) over IP protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite has four layers: link, network, transport and application layers. TCP and User Datagram Protocols (UDP) operate at the transport layer and TCP is connection oriented and ensures data delivery while UDP is connectionless and has no mechanism to check data delivery.
In the “three way handshake” in TCP, the sender/client sends a connection request to the server using a SYN (synchronization) message (a bit flag in the TCP header sent with an initial sequence number and the maximum transmission size (MTU)). On receipt of the SYN message, the ...

Atkinson & Moffat (2005) describes informal networks as a relationship between colleagues that develops after the realization of the gains derivable from such a network. Informal networks keep employees connected in a context that is only well understood among them (members of the same network). As opposed to formal networks which are regulative, informative-instructive, or integrative or innovative, informal networks are inherently are known to change with time (Anderson, Ones, Sinangil, & Viswesvaran, 2001). Research has shown that these networks are less innovative and are by all means not regulative.

Conventionally, the presence of informal networks has always been justified ...

A Position Paper

In the recent past, demand for services that consume high bandwidth has increased. Such services include real-time video streaming. However, the traditional Internet architecture was never designed with such aspects in mind. As a result, the transportation of data (in more compressed forms) has become prone to high rates of packet losses and delays. For this reason, there was a need to move away from the traditional protocols and standards into the more current Quality of Service (QoS) in computer networks. QoS in a computer network enables the network to transport data simultaneously from one host to another while ...
