Introduction to Communication Data communication is the process of sending data electronically from one computer or similar device to another. Linking one computer to another permits the power and resources of that computer to be tapped. It also makes possible the updating and sharing of data at different locations.
• Computers that are located in the same room or office building, can communicate data through a direct cable link.
• Computers located far away use a special form of data communication – telecommunication or telegraph.

People communicate with other people in a variety of ways.
When people use computers to communicate they use a computer network.
This course is about computer networks and how they are used to transmit information between computers and people.
It provides a broad overview and foundation for understanding networks and working in the computer and networking industry.

Why Use Networks? Network: group of computers and other devices
that are connected by some type of transmission media
Advantages of using networks over standalone computers: Networks enable multiple users to share the
network’s resources (devices and data) Networks allow you to manage, or administer,
resources on multiple computers from a central location

Defining a Computer Network A computer network allows users
to communicate with other users on the same network by transmitting data on the cables used to connect them.
A computer network is defined as having two or more devices (such as workstations, printers, or servers) that are linked together for the purpose of sharing information, resources, or both.

Three common reasons that people use networks to send information from a source, such as a personal computer (PC), to a destination, such as a printer, are: Communicate and collaborate
(i.e., e-mail and newsgroups) Share information (i.e., document sharing)
People use computers and networks for a wide variety of reasons. Share resources (i.e., printers and servers)

Generically speaking, these devices are referred to as nodes. Nodes are the various endpoints on a network, connected together to form a network.
The connection between nodes is made using some type of connection medium.
Examples of connection mediums include: Copper cables Fiber optic cables Radio waves

Problems experienced in the early days of microcomputers Hard drives were small and expensive Printers (especially Laser) were expensive, large and had a
high-consumable costs Document sharing required “sneaker-net” No applications, such as email or groupware
To address these problems, networks were created

Generic 3 layer Model
Network Access
Transport
ApplicationContains logic needed to support various applications,such as file transfer, a separate module is required that is particular to that module.
Provides mechanisms for reliable transmission of databetween the applications. These common modules are shared by all applications.
This layer is concerned with the exchange of data between a computer and a network to which it is attached.It does not concern itself with the application but handles address and other network related activities.

OSI vs TCP/IP OSI has become the standard model for classifying
communication functions TCP/IP, on the other hand, is the most widely used
interoperable architecture for data communication TCP/IP is the result of experimental communication network
by ARPANET There are other protocols (like Frame Relay and ATM) are
used by TCP/IP as the lower layer protocols.

Physical Layer As mentioned earlier Physical layer is concerned with transmission of
unstructured bit stream over physical medium. Deals with the mechanical, electrical, functional and procedural
characteristics across the physical medium. Most of the electrical related matters is dealt with COM part of the
course. Some of the issues are:
Type of physical medium. Bandwidth of the medium. Multiplexing. Modulation Techniques Base band signal encodingetc.
Most of these issues will be discussed in details in com part of the course.We will briefly discuss some of them.

Twisted pairA basic twisted-pair cable consists of two strands of copper wire twisted together. This twisting reduces the sensitivity of the cable to electro magnetic interference.

Shielded twisted pairShielded twisted-pair cabling consists of one or more twisted pairs of cables enclosed in a foil wrap and woven copper shielding. The shield further reduces the tendency of the cable to radiate EMI and thus reduces the cable’s sensitivity to outside interference.

Coaxial CableCoaxial cables were the first cable types used in LANs. Gets its name because two conductors share a common axis; the cable is most frequently referred to as coax.

Fiber OpticsThe centre conductor of a fiber-optic cable is a fiber that consists of highly refined glass or plastic designed to transmit light signals with little loss. A glass core supports a longer cabling distance, but a plastic core is typically easier to work with. The fiber is coated with a cladding that reflects signals back into the fiber to reduce signal loss. A plastic sheath protects the fiber.

Bus Topology Bus: each node is daisy-chained (connected one
right after the other) along the same backbone. Information sent from a node travels along the backbone until it reaches its destination node. Each end of a bus network must be terminated with a resistor to keep the data.

Ring Topology Ring: Similar to a bus network, rings
have nodes daisy chained, but the end of the network in a ring topology comes back around to the first node, creating a complete circuit. Each node takes a turn sending and receiving information through the use of a token. The token along with any data is sent from the first node to the second node which extracts the data addressed to it and adds any data it wishes to send. Then second node passes the token and data to the third node, etc. until it comes back around to the first node again. Only the node with the token is allowed to send data . All other nodes must wait for the token to come to them.

Star Topology In a star network, each node is connected to
a central device called a hub. The hub takes a signal that comes from any node and passes it along to all the other nodes in the network.
•A hub does not perform any type of filtering or routing of the data. •A hub is a junction that joins all the different nodes together.

Common Hybrid Topologies Star- Bus
Prob. Most common topology used today. Combines elements of the star and bus topologies to create a versatile network environment.
Nodes in particular areas are connected to hubs (and create star topology), and hubs are connected together along the network backbone (like a bus network).
Often you have stars nested within stars.

Packets A packet is a unit of data transmitted over a
network Breaking a large amount of data up into packets
makes many networking tasks easier - divide and conquer
Often different protocols have their own name for a packet We will use “packet” for any protocol

Errors The world of networking is far from ideal Some types of errors effecting packets:
Get lost along the way Corrupted - the data is changed Arrive out of order Be duplicated

Communication Mode With Simplex communication, only one way
communication – e.g. TV, Radio With full-duplex communication, two systems
can ‘talk’ simultaneously (two way communication) - e.g. normal telephone
With half-duplex communication, only one system can ‘talk’ at a time - e.g. Walkie-talkie, two-way radio (CB Radio)

Communications Unicast - one computer talking directly to
another computer Broadcast - one computer talking to every
computer on the network Multicast - one computer talking to a subset
of the computers on a network

Summary A network is a group of computers and other
devices that are connected by some type of transmission media
In a peer-to-peer network, every computer can communicate directly with every other computer
A client/server network uses a server to enable clients to share data, data storage space, and devices
A LAN is confined to a relatively small space, such as a building or office

Summary (continued) A MAN is larger than a LAN and connects
clients and servers from multiple buildings A WAN connects two or more geographically
distinct LANs or MANs Elements common to client/server networks:
client, server, workstation, NIC, NOS, host, node, connectivity device, segment, backbone, topology, protocol, data packets, addressing, and transmission media
