Concepts of Topology. Topological property. Topological transformation. Continuous deformation. Genus. Homeomorphism. What is the subject of topology all about? With what subject matter is it concerned? What kinds of questions does it ask? With what kinds of problems is it concerned? Let us start with some dictionary definitions. Topology. The study of those properties of geometric figures or solid bodies that remain invariant under certain transformations. Funk & Wagnalls Dictionary

They describe the physical and logical arrangement of the network nodes. ▸ Topology can also be defined as the

The term “topology” in networking refers to the configuration of cables‚ computers‚ and peripherals. The six common used topologies in networking are: bus‚ star‚ ring‚ mesh‚ tree‚ and hybrid. The three major topologies that I will be discussing further in detail are: bus‚ star‚ and ring topology. Bus topology is probably considered the easiest of the network topologies. In a bus topology‚ the devices are connected to a central cable called the bus. The bus cable carries the transmitted message

A mesh network is a network topology in which each node (called a mesh node) relays data for the network. All nodes cooperate in the distribution of data in the network. A mesh network can be designed using a flooding technique or a routing technique. When using a routing technique‚ the message is propagated along a path‚ by hopping from node to node until the destination is reached. To ensure all its paths’ availability‚ a routing network must allow for continuous connections and reconfiguration

Bus Topology http://compnetworking.about.com/od/networkdesign/a/topologies.htm http://fallsconnect.com/topology.htm Bus topology Bus topology refers to a single cable that connects all the workstations‚ servers‚ printers and other devices on the network. The cable runs from device to device by using tee connectors that plug into the network adapter cards. Each end device has a terminator on one end of the tee and a cable going out to the next device on the other end‚ while all devices in the

BUS TOPOLOGY REMAINS THE MOST USED Bus topology is the physical and logical design of a bus network. All the nodes (devices) on a bus network have to share access to the network to communicate. The nodes can only transmit data one device at a time. A bus is the central cable‚ the main wire that connects all devices on a LAN (Local Area Network). Bus topology is known as the simplest network topology‚ and also known as a linear bus (Oliviero and Woodward‚ 2009‚ p. 104). Bus topology is the

Topologies and Network Technology NTC/361 Monday‚ August 8‚ 2011 Thomas Krawczyk Topologies and network technology In every project‚ it is important to have a goal‚ and that goal should be the foundation on which a project team spring into action. The foundation should involve an infrastructural plan‚ and the usability of the components of the infrastructure. A project plan‚ as in any other plan‚ should outline the premise of the project and answer some basic questions like why

Network Topologies Network topologies are an important part of the network. Without the proper topology‚ the network may not meet the needs of the organization. The layout of a network is referred to as the topology. How nodes in a network are connected to each other and communicate is determined by the topology. There are three basic topologies with several typical variations‚ or combinations. A description of four topologies follows. Mesh Topology Mesh topology is the first topology discussed

To go from a Star topology to and extended star topology‚ which their logical topology would be a ring. We would have to buy five wireless nic-cards to start to accommodate the cabling issue in the warehouse as well as a wireless access point and a wireless
