The word data refers to information presented in whatever form is agreed upon by the parties creating and using the data. Data communications are the exchange of data between two devices via some form of transmission medium such as a wire cable. Components Data Representation Data Flow Topics discussed in this section: 1. Figure Five components of data communication 1. Figure Data flow (simplex, half-duplex, and full-duplex) 1. 1-2 NETWORKS A network is a set of devices (often referred to as nodes) connected by communication links. A node can be a computer, printer, or any other device capable of sending and/or receiving data generated by other nodes on the network. Distributed Processing Network Criteria Physical Structures Network Models Categories of Networks Interconnection of Networks: Internetwork Topics discussed in this section: 1. Figure Types of connections: point-to-point and multipoint 1. Figure Categories of topology 1. Figure A fully connected mesh topology (five devices) 1. Figure A star topology connecting four stations 1. Figure A bus topology connecting three stations 1. Figure A ring topology connecting six stations 1. Figure A hybrid topology: a star backbone with three bus networks 1. Figure An isolated LAN connecting 12 computers to a hub in a closet 1. Figure WANs: a switched WAN and a point-to-point WAN 1. Figure A heterogeneous network made of four WANs and two LANs 1. 1-3 THE INTERNET The Internet has revolutionized many aspects of our daily lives. It has affected the way we do business as well as the way we spend our leisure time.
