Explanation of Solution

Difference between star, peer-to-peer and mesh topology:

Star topologyBus topologyPeer-to-peer topologyMesh topology
It contains one central hub, and all the computers or nodes are connected to the central hub.

It contains common communication line or cable called bus, and all the computers are connected to the bus.

The computer systems is denoted as “peers” which are connected to each other through the internet.It use many access points to link a series of devices that communicate to each other to form a network connection across a large area.
Communicate with any computer but communication takes place only through common hub.Communicate with any computer but communication takes place only through common cable.Without the need of the central server, the files can be shared directly between the systems on the network...

6.3A-3. Multiple Access protocols (3). Consider the figure below, which shows the arrival of 6 messages for transmission at different multiple access wireless nodes at times t=0.1, 1.4, 1.8, 3.2, 3.3, 4.1. Each transmission requires exactly one time unit. 1 t=0.0 2 3 45 t=1.0 t-2.0 t-3.0 6 t=4.0 t-5.0 For the CSMA protocol (without collision detection), indicate which packets are successfully transmitted. You should assume that it takes .2 time units for a signal to propagate from one node to each of the other nodes. You can assume that if a packet experiences a collision or senses the channel busy, then that node will not attempt a retransmission of that packet until sometime after t=5. Hint: consider propagation times carefully here. (Note: You can find more examples of problems similar to this here B.] ☐ U ப 5 - 3 1 4 6 2
Just wanted to know, if you had a scene graph, how do you get multiple components from a specific scene node within a scene graph? Like if I wanted to get a component from wheel from the scene graph, does that require traversing still?   Like if a physics component requires a transform component and these two component are part of the same scene node. How does the physics component knows how to get the scene object's transform it is attached to, this being in a scene graph?
