Explanation of Solution

Type of network used in home computer network:

  • A home network is interconnected by more than two computers to form a LAN.
  • Wireless LAN is used to home networking.
    • It is a LAN based on Wi-Fi network knowledge.
  • Direct cable connection
    • It is the wired connection for home networking.
    • When two computers are in the identical room, then the direct cable connection is used.
  • Traditional Ethernet
    • It is also the wired connection for home networking.
    • It takes 2 to 12 computers.
  • Phone line network
    • It is the wireless network type.
    • This type offers a simple and minimum cost solution.
    • It connects the network using current phone lines.
    • The people can talk and also use the network at the same without using any trouble.
  • Radio free network
    • It is also the wireless type for home network.
    • This network uses radio frequency waves for transmission.

Network topologies used in home computer network:

  • Three topologies are used in home networking
    • Bus topology
      • To make a direction between the personal computer (PC) on the network.
      • The connection creation will be easy.
    • Ring topology
      • The different devices or PCs on the network forms a ring.
      • The possibility for using this topology in a home networking is low.
    • Star topology
      • It is used by the Ethernet.
      • Assume an example, if the network hub is in the middle of network, then the different PC connected through the given hub.

Equipment of home networking:

  • To build the home network, the following equipment’s are needed...

If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?
Discuss how business intelligence and data visualization work together to help decision-makers and data users. Provide 2 specific use cases.
This week we will be building a regression model conceptually for our discussion assignment. Consider your current workplace (or previous/future workplace if not currently working) and answer the following set of questions. Expand where needed to help others understand your thinking:  What is the most important factor (variable) that needs to be predicted accurately at work? Why? Justify its selection as your dependent variable.
