The World Wide Web (popularly known as the WWW) is a troupe of web pages or websites that is stored within the web servers. This is a collection of web pages or websites connected to local computer systems with the help of the internet. The World Wide web is used to connect people through images, text pages, videos, digital content, ...
The network layer and transport layer are two of the seven layers of the OSI model. The network layer is the third layer of the OSI model which provides communication between hosts of different networks. The transport layer is the fourth layer of the OSI model which is responsible for the process to process delivery of ...
To maintain the rate of data transmission between sender and receiver, it is required to use flow control protocol. The data link layer provides us with the protocol for controlling the data transmission rate. So here we are going to discuss one of the flow control protocols named stop and wait protocol. The stop-and-wait protocol ...
WiFi or wireless fidelity is a wireless networking technology that connects computers (laptops and desktops), mobile devices (smartphones and wearables), and other equipment (printers and video cameras) to the Internet. It enables these devices, as well as many others, to communicate with one another, forming a network. In today’s world, WiFi is one of the most important means ...
Bandwidth, or network bandwidth, is the maximum data transfer rate of a network or Internet connection. It determines how much information can be sent over a particular connection in a certain amount of time. The higher bandwidth of a network, the larger amount of data it can send to and from across its path. Be careful ...
There are mainly two types of computer network architecture: peer-to-peer network architecture or P2P network architecture and Client-Server network architecture. Peer-to-peer has decentralized the simplest form of network architecture where every computer system can communicate with every other computer system. In the peer-to-peer network, each node of the network has equal permission and responsibility for processing the data or ...
The OSI model stands for Open Systems Interconnection model. The OSI model is also known as the ISO-OSI model as it was developed by ISO (International Organization for Standardization). It is a conceptual reference model that describes the entire flow of information from one computer to the other computer. The OSI model is a 7-layered model, so it ...
What is File Transfer Protocol (FTP)? How Does File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Work? FTP can be accessed via a basic command-line interface (from a console or terminal window in Microsoft Windows, Apple macOS, or Linux) or with a dedicated graphical user interface. FTP clients can also be used with web browsers. What is the Purpose of ...
Today, the world is connected to the Internet and billions of data are being shared through a wireless network. All of these are done using TCP/IP protocol which uses a three-way handshake and flow control to initiate, terminate the connection, and send and receive data packets. Flow control is an important concept in Computer Networks as it provides reliable ...
Sockets in computer networks are used for allowing the transmission of information between two processes of the same machines or different machines in the network. The socket is the combination of IP address and software port number used for communication between multiple processes. Socket helps to recognize the address of the application to which data is to be sent using ...
