Network topology is the arrangement of the elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a communication network. [1] [2] Network topology can be used to define or describe the arrangement of various types of telecommunication networks, including command and control radio networks, [3] industrial fieldbusses and computer networks.
A data center is a pool of resources (computational, storage, network) interconnected using a communication network. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] A data center network (DCN) holds a pivotal role in a data center , as it interconnects all of the data center resources together.
Space Data Link Protocol, one of the norms for Space Data Link from the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems; STP Spanning Tree Protocol; Split multi-link trunking Protocol; Token Ring a protocol developed by IBM; the name can also be used to describe the token passing ring logical topology that it popularized.
The model partitions the flow of data in a communication system into seven abstraction layers to describe networked communication from the physical implementation of transmitting bits across a communications medium to the highest-level representation of data of a distributed application. Each intermediate layer serves a class of functionality ...
A network of radio base stations forming the base station subsystem. The core circuit switched network for handling voice calls and text; A packet switched network for handling mobile data; The public switched telephone network to connect subscribers to the wider telephony network; This network is the foundation of the GSM system network.
The Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model) defines and codifies the concept of layered network architecture. Abstraction layers are used to subdivide a communications system further into smaller manageable parts. A layer is a collection of similar functions that provide services to the layer above it and receives services from the layer ...
Computer networks may be classified by many criteria, including the transmission medium used to carry signals, bandwidth, communications protocols to organize network traffic, the network size, the topology, traffic control mechanisms, and organizational intent.
A physical network node is an electronic device that is attached to a network, and is capable of creating, receiving, or transmitting information over a communication channel. [1] In data communication, a physical network node may either be data communication equipment (such as a modem, hub, bridge or switch) or data terminal equipment (such as ...
