Project Description for Network
Explore how to approach real-world network challenges such as message transmission delays, TTL-based packet travel, and network topology optimizations. Learn to design and implement solutions that improve communication in LANs, cluster networks, and overlay systems. This lesson prepares you to tackle similar coding interview problems involving efficient network data handling and protocol analysis.
We'll cover the following...
Introduction
A Network is an interconnection of computers, routers, or switches spanning a geographic area. The devices in a network communicate with each other through different protocols. Corporations typically use LAN to set up private networks for their employees. It can be used to simultaneously send data and messages to all devices available in the network. Most often, a network is connected to the global Internet so that devices on the same network can access resources on the Internet, too.
The scenario and the problems we will discuss in this chapter relate to data propagation in a network and how we can improve it.
