What is a client-server network? How many types and what? How does client server network work?

Client-server network Usually when we receive any data, the computer from which we receive the data or service is called server. We are clients or consumers because we serve from it. In this network, both workstation and server computers have the opportunity to work autonomously with their own CPU and memory. It consists of a graphical user interface or front end program on the client workstation and other facilities. It stores the back end server programs of one or more servers. In other words, a suitable network for centrally storing data, ensuring security, running various applications and running the network is a client-server network. In this network, one computer owns the resource, and other computers in the network use those resources. The computer that shares the resource is the server, and the computers that share the resource are the clients. All the resources of the network are stored on the server so the resources can be managed from the center. Security is ensured as all u...

What is modulation and demodulation? Different types of modulation methods ?

Modulation and Demodulation Modulation Audio or video waves received through transducers, known as signal webs, are difficult to transmit over long distances. High frequency carrier waves are used to transmit these signal waves over long distances as radio waves. The amplitude, frequency or phase of this carrier wave is changed according to the instantaneous value of the signal wave. Such changes are called modulation. In other words, mixing the signal with the carrier wave is called modulation. Modulation is mainly of two types, namely Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM). Use of Modulation: How far a real signal can be transmitted by a transmitter depends on two factors, namely -- (i) Transmitting Frequency (ii) Transmitter Power Modulation is used to send the signal farther. Different types of modulation methods: (1) Amplitude Modulation (AM) (ii) Frequency Modulation (FM) (iii) Pulse Modulation (PM) (iv) Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)  (v) Quadrature Amplitude ...

Concept of wireless media?

Wireless media: Wireless communication is a type of communication system that does not require any type of cable. In wireless communication, the sending device connects one computer to another computer or one device to another device through the radio web. Characteristics of Wireless Media: Wireless media do not use electrical or optical conductors or wires. In most cases, the Earth's atmosphere acts as the physical path for data transmission. Wireless systems are used when there are obstacles in the way of data transmission and installation of wired media is problematic. The three types of wireless media are -- (i) Radio Wave  (ii) Microwave   (ii) Infrared Radio wave: Network data is transmitted through radio transmission in the same way that signals are transmitted in radio. In this case every computer in the network can receive the signal sent by it. Radio wave frequencies are limited to 10 kHz to 1 GHz. The limited electromagnetic spectrum between 10 kilohertz and...

What is transmission media? Introduction to different types of data transmission cables

Transmission media: When a PC communicates or wants to communicate with another PC, it has to take the help of some transmission media. The most commonly used media in the network are twisted pair cable, coaxial cable, fiber optic cable. Nowadays, the use of optical fiber is increasing greatly. Radio wave, microwave and infrared technologies are prominent among wireless media. Among these mediums, optical fiber has the highest data transfer speed. The type of medium used in a network depends on the type and location of that network. The connection system for exchanging information between the sender and the remote receiving end is called a channel. The means or methods used to implement the channel are called media. such as-- (i) Cable or wire. (ii) Common telephone lines. (ii) Radio waves. (iv) Microwave. (v) Geo-satellite systems etc. Cable or Wire: Cable is an important medium in data communication. Cables are generally used for data transfer over short range networking such as LAN...

The concept of computer network! The use of computer networks! Classification of computer networks

Basic Concept on Computer Network Network A network is a system where everyone can share information or work together. For example, suppose the postal department delivers letters across the country. For this the postal department has a nationwide network. They have different offices in different places in this network, there are some rules and regulations. Here every part of the network is working. If the postal department does not have such work then they cannot work. Such networks can be used in the case of computers. Network consists of different devices, which are connected by different communication links. Devices can be computers, printers etc. A computer is part of a network when it is connected to one or more other computers to share information. A minimum of two computers is required to network. Apart from that, the rules of how one computer will communicate with another computer, what their language will be, etc. are specified in advance. Computer network A computer network i...

What is a router? How many types of routers and what are they?

Router: A router is a computer networking device that determines which way data will go through different networks. It is used to connect one network to another network and to route data packets from network to network. In this case the device is called a router. Routers break up broadcast domains in such a way that all devices under a network segment can read and process broadcasts sent for that network segment. A router connects two or more logical subnets. Its network hub does not perform any routing. Rather, it forwards every packet it receives on a network line to other network lines. Routers operate in two different planes: Control plane: Where the router selects the appropriate outgoing interface, which sends specific packets to specific destinations. Forwarding plane: which determines the forwarding of packets received by a logical interface. Initially routers were known as gateways. It was first conceived by the International Networking Group (INWG), an international computer...
