Client/server awareness. Visit three local stores in your neighborhood or mall and notice the information technology in the stor

e – e.g., computerized cash registers, surveillance cameras, inventory information, etc. Ask an employee about the technology. If the store uses servers, report what they do and what the clients do. Questions should be polite and specific. Do employees need special training to use the computers? Are servers kept in the back of the store? Is there a computer somewhere else linked to computers in the store? Do they ever break down? What happens if they do break down? Write a report of about five hundred words describing the information in the stores, and submit it to the teacher.

local stores in neighborhood do not have computerized cash registers but they may have cameras if they are in a bad neighborhood. inventory is controlled by checking the shelves.


the Qs about computers, servers and clients are for national chain stores. they use clients at each store which are connected to the central servers at HQ. employees need special training as the system is complicated. the whole system is maintained by their IT department.

Do employees need special training to use the computers?

Yes, a modern retail information system requires special training before the employees can use it for daily transactions. It is provided by the employer or an IT vendor.


Are servers kept in the back of the store?

Most servers are kept at remote locations for safe keeping. Unless there is only one store, then the server will be in the back.


Is there a computer somewhere else linked to computers in the store?

Computers in the store called clients are linked to a computer called server in a central location.


Do they ever break down? What happens if they do break down?

Computer breaks down all the time. That is why company has an IT department or an IT vendor to maintain and repair them.

What changes should be made in OSI model(Open System Interconnection).
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

When most non-technical people hear the term “seven layers”, they either think of the popular Super Bowl bean dip or they mistakenly think about the seven layers of Hell, courtesy of Dante’s Inferno (there are nine). For IT professionals, the seven layers refer to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, a conceptual framework that describes the functions of a networking or telecommunication system.

The model uses layers to help give a visual description of what is going on with a particular networking system. This can help network managers narrow down problems (Is it a physical issue or something with the application?), as well as computer programmers (when developing an application, which other layers does it need to work with?). Tech vendors selling new products will often refer to the OSI model to help customers understand which layer their products work with or whether it works “across the stack”.

Layer 7 - Application

To further our bean dip analogy, the Application Layer is the one at the top--it’s what most users see. In the OSI model, this is the layer that is the “closest to the end user”. It receives information directly from users and displays incoming data it to the user. Oddly enough, applications themselves do not reside at the application layer. Instead the layer facilitates communication through lower layers in order to establish connections with applications at the other end. Web browsers (Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari, etc.) TelNet, and FTP, are examples of communications  that rely  on Layer 7.

Layer 6 - Presentation

The Presentation Layer represents the area that is independent of data representation at the application layer. In general, it represents the preparation or translation of application format to network format, or from network formatting to application format. In other words, the layer “presents” data for the application or the network. A good example of this is encryption and decryption of data for secure transmission - this happens at Layer 6.
