Network fundamentals   Question 1: Functions of the 7-layer OSI model The model of Open Systems Interconnection functions with its seven layers in forming a networking framework. The entire model serves the purpose of a teaching tool, while each of the seven layers is having various functions (Suresh, 2016). Physical layer: Acts as the physical medium for the transmission of bits. Datalink layer: Functions for transferring data frames that are free from errors. Network layer: Functions for transferring packets from their origin area to the functioning area. Transport layer: Delivery of messages from one process to another. Session layer: Functions for establishing, managing, and terminating sessions. Presentation layer: Functions for translating, encrypting, and compressing. Application layer: Responsible for providing services to users. Question 2: Coexistence of IP and TCP protocols IP and TCP protocols coexist in the process of data communication so that a connection can be maintained between the senders of a message to its target. Moreover, the coexistence also helps in ensuring packet orders. This is because TCP functions in breaking the received message from the user into…

Toner Refill Kits: Do they Work? Recently, I gave up spending a lot of money on replacing my laser toner cartridges. I decided to try something different, toner refill kits. But initially, I was warned by a close friend who told me that he ordered a kit but only got a bottle of toner. The problem is that my laser printer is using a lot of money because each toner cartridge is almost the cost of the printer. Toner Refill Kits: A Sure to Give Your Cartridge New Lifeline Before ordering a toner refill kit, I decided to do some comprehensive research and discovered that there is a huge waste in this niche. I mean, the cartridges are set to be used once and then get discarded. Look, sometimes back, it was pretty easy to refill toner cartridges. But now, the printer manufacturers have come up with chips that make them stop operating when a specific number of pages are done. It is like fitting a spare part to your car engine that will stop it running when it hits…

A neural network represents an emerging technology that has been rooted in several disciplines. They are endowed with unique attributes such as the ability to adapt and learn from the environment, and approximate complicated images and mappings. Historically, the first neural network was developed for the implementation of a non-threshold Boolean function. With the advancing technology in a digital computer, the work of neural networks has been motivated by their interception by the recognition that human brains work in an entirely different way. The human brain can now be termed as a parallel, high complex nonlinear computer that can organize neutrons on the computation of motor control, pattern recognition, and perceptions. The interconnection between neurons has made the human brain to work faster than the first digital computer. Ideally, a neutral network obtains computing power through either massive parallel distribution on the structure or from its ability to learn and generalize. Neural networks represent an emerging technology rooted in many disciplines. This popular and important area of science and technology was extensively developing for a recent period of time. Neural…

The application of these strategies defines the way that can be followed for gaining success in the market amongst the high competition. Porter’s model is one of such strategies that have been highlighted in the study for its effectiveness in the activities of Quebecor Printing. Its position in the market is the determinant of its profitability if it is higher or lower than that of the industry average. Such situations can be procured through sustainable competitive advantage situations, which are initiated by Porter’s Model (Firoz Suleman et al. 2019). This model highlights the critical factors of competitive advantage that can be defined in brief. Differentiation: It helps a firm in becoming unique in the market through changes in some dimensions associated with the customers.

Despite letting the nurse know that their services would be required in the shift, the nurse was adamant about not working on the shift. Channels of communication exist to make communication more effective. In this regard, you used the channels of…

Network Security Proposal Securing Boundary Devices, Hosts, and Software   Physical Security Requirements Ensuring security at the university servers is an essential factor in ensuring physical safety. All IT offices and server rooms should be kept closed due to their proximity to the classrooms. Proposed Solution Implementing a multi-layered defense architecture will be the best solution for the current situation. Ensuring access time for non-authorized personnel such as the students and other students should be set. Any individual accessing this sensitive area should be monitored by a responsible manning individual [1]. This will ensure accountability and raise security concerns. To ensure safety locks for the various offices, it will be recommended for HID proxpro provided by HID global. Justification By limiting entry hours, only personals with valid permissions will be authorized. By using locks such as HID proxpro, the organization will incur limited cost due to their low power consumption nature and reliability. Mobile Device Security Requirements Creating inventory control and tracking devices for mobile devices will be an essential requirement [2]. This is because device theft and using devices…
