Wireless network refers to any type of computer network that uses wireless (usually‚ but not always radio waves) for network connections. It is a method by which homes‚ telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building‚ or as a connection between various equipment locations.[1] Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place

COMPUTER NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR A computer network (the "network") is the connection of at least two or more computers for the purpose of sharing data and resources. These resources can include printers‚ Internet access‚ file sharing‚ and electronic mail ("e-mail"). In today ’s technological environment‚ most companies and businesses have some kind of network used on a daily basis. Thus‚ it is imperative to day-to-day operations that networks run smoothly. Companies employ at least one person

Topic 2: Understanding Network Protocols I. What is a network? A computer network‚ or simply a network‚ is a collection of computers and other hardware interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information. LAN - Connects devices within a single office or home or among buildings in an office park. The key aspect here is that LAN is owned entirely by a single organization. - In simplest conception‚ it consists of

wireless sensor networks can be promptly understood simply by thinking about what they essentially are: a large number of small sensing self-powered nodes which gather information or detect special events and communicate in a wireless fashion‚ with the end goal of handing their processed data to a base station. Sensing‚ processing and communication are three key elements whose combination in one tiny device gives rise to a vast number of applications [A1]‚ [A2]. Sensor networks provide endless
