Answer:

Topology means arrangement of nodes

Explanation:

In computer science the word topology means the arrangement of nodes and elements in a network. For any topology we do need nodes and cables for maintaining the infrastructure.

In mesh topology the all nodes use to get connected by direct link. While each and every node is directly associated with  one another. In this infrastructure we do need lot cabling where every node will be connected with one another. While usage of good quality cable in network is  also expensive to manage. Although there are lot of benefits of this topology, where the transmission of data would never stop if node is not working the rest will be working to transfer the data among other nodes ,this is more secure because there is no traffic for data to travel via many nodes   to reach the destination. Every node is directly connected and communicate. So, once the node is not working the communication will not be stop but the maintenance and troubleshooting will be difficult in this infrastructure.

It is proved along with lot of benefits and network security ,this infrastructure is having some disadvantages as well. Cabling expense , maintenance cost etc  . usually small scale networks do not prefer mesh topology.  Small scale and low budget companies can  not afford this topology because it is expensive.

Although we do believe that the data security is most important for today's era ,so few companies those wanted to keep their information secure and confidential they must use mesh topology by ignoring the cost incurred for this set up. Data security and integrity would never be compromised by some of the companies.

Mesh topology is more safer, more quick infrastructure which is although very expensive , difficult to mange and maintain. Moreover it is overhead of cabling as well to connect every node but the demand of mesh topology would never be less. It is demanding and appealing topology still.

Answer: It's wiring is complex

Explanation: Complexity

Each node needs to both send messages as well as act as a router, which causes the complexity of each node to go up pretty significantly. Let’s say you’re making a small, low-power device—like a room occupancy sensor—and you are looking to get better range out of your system. The nodes have to now keep track of messages from five or 10 of their ‘neighbors,” which exponentially increases the amount of data that node has to deal with in order to pass along a message. Thus, if you add additional sensors to the mesh just to benefit the range, you’re naturally making the system more complex.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer: Dereferencing a variable that is not a pointer

Explanation:

The execution time also refered to as the CPU time pertaining to a given task is the time that is used by the system to execute a task.

Some of the reasons for a fatal execution-time error include:

• Dereferencing a pointer that has not been initialized properly

• Dereferencing a null pointer

• Dereferencing a pointer that has not been assigned to point to a specific address.

It should be noted that dereferencing a variable that is not a pointer doesn't cause a fatal execution-time error.

In which step of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) are the logical and physical components defined?
QveST [7]

Answer: Systems design

Explanation: SDLC(Systems Development Life Cycle)  is the cycle that is responsible for the development of the system including several phases related to it.

The system design phase in SDLC works with the physical or hardware units and the logical reports to make a design interface. This phase makes the requirements of the cycle into design and present it for the analysis so that it can test the efficiency of it.
