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.

Ramjac Company wants to set up k independent file servers, each capable of running the company's intranet. Each server has avera
Luda [366]

Answer:

k = 3

Explanation:

K independent file servers

Average "uptime" of each server = 98%

<u>To achieve 99.99% probability by the intranet </u>

given that each server has an uptime = 98%

For the intranet to achieve 99.99% probability we have to choose more than 2 servers ( i.e. 3 servers )  incase any of the server goes down.

As each server posses an uptime of 98% it is almost impossible for all 3 servers to go down at the same time hence value of K = 3

Write a program whose input is a character and a string, and whose output indicates the number of times the character appears in
Zina [86]

Answer:

Here is the C++ program:

#include <iostream> // to include input output functions

using namespace std; // to identify objects like cin cout

int counter(string userString, char character) { //function counter

   int count = 0;   // counts the no of times a character appears in the string

   for (int i=0;i<userString.length();i++)  

// loop to move through the string to find the occurrence of the character

       if (userString[i] == character) //if characters is found in the string

           count++;   //counts the occurrence of the character in the string

   return count; }   //returns the no of times character occurs in the string

int main() { //start of the main() function body

   string s; // stores the string entered by the user

   cout<<"Enter a string: "; //prompts user to enter the string

   cin>>s; //reads the string from user

   char ch; //stores the character entered by the user

   cout<<"Enter a character: "; //prompts user to enter a character

   cin>>ch; //reads the character from user

   cout << counter(s, ch) << endl; }  

//calls counter function to find the number of times a character occurs in the //string

Explanation:

The counter function works as following:

It has a count variable which stores the number of occurrences of a character in the userString.

It uses a for loop which loops through the entire string.

It has i position variable which starts with the first character of the string and checks if the first character of userString matches with the required character.

If it matches the character then count variable counts the first occurrence of the character and in the userString and is incremented to 1.

If the character does not match with the first character of the userString then the loops keeps traversing through the userString until the end of the userString is reached which is specified by the length() function which returns the length of the string.

After the loop ends the return count statement is used to return the number of occurrences of the character in the userString.

The main() function prompts the user to enter a string and a character. It then calls counter() function passing string s and character ch arguments to it in order to get the number of times ch appears in s.

The output is attached in a screenshot.
