Uses of Computer Networks • Business Applications • Home Applications
Business Applications • Sharing resources • Common databases for customer records, inventory, accounts • E-commerce • Video-conferencing • Disseminating the information, and coordination
Home Applications • Getting the remote information • Person-to-person information • E-commerce • Entertainment • E-flea
Application Types • Some forms of e-commerce.
Client-Server Communication • A network with two clients and one server.
Client-Server Communication • The client-server model involves requests and replies.
Peer-to-Peer Communication • In peer-to-peer system there are no fixed clients and servers.
Mobile and Wireless Applications • Combinations of wireless networks and mobile computing.
Wireless Applications • Portable offices • Trucks, taxis, police need to communicate • Help with orientation in the area • Car rental return • M-commerce • Status of the machines
Network Types • Local Area Networks • Metropolitan Area Networks • Wide Area Networks • Wireless Networks • Home Networks • Internetworks
Network Types • Classification of interconnected processors by scale.
Local Area Networks • Two LANs • (a) Bus-broadcast • (b) Ring
Metropoliten Area Networks Switch • Two MANs • (a) Star-switched • (b) Ring
Metropolitan Area Networks • A metropolitan area network based on cable TV.
Wide Area Networks Circuit switch • Relation between hosts on LANs and the subnet.
Wide Area Networks • A stream of packets from sender to receiver.
Wireless Networks • Categories of wireless networks: • System interconnection • Wireless LANs • Wireless WANs
Wireless Networks • (a) Bluetooth configuration • (b) Wireless LAN
Wireless Networks • (a) Individual mobile computers • (b) A flying LAN
Home Network Categories • Computers (desktop PC, PDA, shared peripherals) • Entertainment (TV, DVD, VCR, camera, stereo, MP3) • Telecomm (telephone, cell phone, intercom, fax) • Appliances (microwave, fridge, clock, furnace, airco) • Telemetry (utility meter, burglar alarm, babycam).
Network Hardware • Transmission medium • Transceivers: transmitters and receivers on the point-to-point connections • Multiplexers, demultiplexers • Packet and circuit switches • Bridges • Routers • Servers, gateways, management units
Transmission Medium • Air: different frequency bands • Wires: twisted pairs • Coaxial cables • Optical fibers
Transceivers • Transmitters perform modulation and coding to provide efficient and reliable communication. • Receivers perform the reverse operations. • Depending on the medium transceivers are electronic devices, antenas, or lasers and photodiodes.
Multiplexers and Demultiplexers • Multiplexers receive multiple lower bit-rate streams of data and according to some rule transmit the higher bit-rate stream of data. • Demultiplexers do the opposite.
Circuit and Packet Switches • It does not make sense to connect every user with every other user in the network. • Circuit and packet switches connect multiple inputs to multiple outputs. • In circuit switches, the configuration pattern changes on a slow time scale. • In packet switches, the configuration changes on a packet-per-packet basis.
Servers, Gateways, etc. • Servers store various kinds of information for users, for example DNS databases, e-mails, web pages and provide it to the users. • Gateways convert data format, and negotiate QoS with the network.
Network Software • Protocol Hierarchies • Design Issues for the Layers • Connection-Oriented and Connectionless Services • Service Primitives • The Relationship of Services to Protocols
Network SoftwareProtocol Hierarchies • Layers, protocols, and interfaces.
Protocol Hierarchies (2) • The philosopher-translator-secretary architecture.
Protocol Hierarchies (3) • Example information flow supporting virtual communication in layer 5.
Design Issues for the Layers • Addressing • Error Control • Flow Control • Multiplexing • Routing
Connection-Oriented and Connectionless Services • Six different types of service.
Service Primitives • Five service primitives for implementing a simple connection-oriented service.
Service Primitives (2) • Packets sent in a simple client-server interaction on a connection-oriented network.
Services to Protocols Relationship • The relationship between a service and a protocol.
Reference Models with Layers • A layer should have well defined function • Function of a layer should be internatinationally standardized • The information flow between interfaces should be minimized
Reference Models • The OSI reference model • The TCP/IP reference model • Hybrid reference model
Reference Models The OSI reference model.
Reference Models (2) • The TCP/IP reference model.
Reference Models (3) • Protocols and networks in the TCP/IP model initially.
Comparing OSI and TCP/IP Models • Concepts central to the OSI model • Services • Interfaces • Protocols • Concept of TCP/IP • Implementation of the required functionality with three layers
A Critique of the OSI Model and Protocols • Why OSI did not take over the world • Bad timing • Bad technology • Bad implementations • Bad politics
Bad Timing • The apocalypse of the two elephants.
A Critique of the TCP/IP Reference Model • Problems: • Service, interface, and protocol not distinguished • Not a general model • Host-to-network “layer” not really a layer • No mention of physical and data link layers • Minor protocols deeply entrenched, hard to replace
Hybrid Model • The hybrid reference model to be used in this book.
