Advantages and Disadvantages of Tree Topology

Tree Topology

Actually, a Tree topology is the combination of two topologies: bus topology  and star topology. A tree topology combines the characteristics of bus and star topologies. It consists of groups of computer connected as star topology. These groups are then connected to a central communication medium (bus cable).

Advantages of Tree Network Topology

1. Many software and hardware vendors support tree topology.
2. It provides point-to-point wiring for individual groups.

Disadvantages of Tree Network Topology

1. If the main backbone line breaks, the entire tree network goes down.
2. A tree network is more difficult to configure and maintain.
3. If any hub fails, related segment will be removed from the network.

Define Data and Information With Examples

DATA Data is the collection of raw facts and figures. Actually data is unprocessed, that is why data is called collection of raw facts and figures. Define Data and Information with Examples We collect data from different resources. After collection, data is entered into computer for processing. Data may be collection of words, numbers, pictures,  or sounds etc. Examples of Data 1) Student Data on Admission Forms When students get admission in a college. They fill admission form. This form  contains raw facts (data of student) like name, father’s name, address of student, obtained marks, photo graph etc. 2)    Data of Citizens During census, data of all citizens is collected. The staff will go house to house and collect data about citizens like number of persons living in a home, either they are literate or illiterate, number of children, data of each child, cast, religion, Computerized national Identity Card number, address, how many rooms and other facilities in the

MMC stands for multimedia card. SD stands for secure digital card. System Bus  is used to connect main components of a computer such as cpu and main memory. A Port is an interface or a point of attachments. POS stands for Point Of Sale terminal. ATM stands for Automated Teller Machine. PIN stands for Personal identification number. Kbps stands for kilobits per second. Mbps stands for megabits per second. A port that transmits one bit at a time is called Serial Port. A type of port that transmits many bits at a time is called Parallel Port. LPT stands for Line Printer. Examples of system software are Operating System, Utility Programs and Device Drivers. Examples of operating systems are DOS, Windows, Unix and Linux. Examples of Utility programs are File Manager, Image Viewer, Disk Scanner and File Compressor. Software used to detect and remove viruses is called Antivirus . Examples of antivirus programs are Mcaffee, Avast,

Advantages and Disadvantages of Ring Network Topology

Topic: Advantages and Disadvantages of Ring Network Topology alongwith detailed working of Ring topology What Do You Mean by Ring Topology? In Ring topology, each computer is connected to the next computer such that last computer is connected to the first. Every computer is connected to next computer in the ring. Each computer retransmits what it receives from the previous computer. Suppose, computer A needs to send data to computer D. Now the computer A sends data to computer B. As computer B is not the destination computer, so it will retransmit data to computer C. Finally, Computer C will transfer data to computer D, the destination computer. When a node sends a message, the message is processed by each computer in the ring. If a computer is not the destination node, it will pass the message to the next node, until the message arrives at its destination. Advantages of Ring Network Topology 1. It is relatively less expensive than a star topology network. 2. In a Rin
