Consider an application that transmits data at a steady rate (forexample, the sender generates an N-bit unit of data every k time units, where k issmall and fixed). Also, when such an application starts, it will continue running fora relatively long period of time. Answer the following questions, briefly justifyingyour answer:a. Would a packet-switched network or a circuit-switched network be moreappropriate for this application? Why?
Consider an application which transmits data at a bursty rate (e.g., the sender generates data for short burst of time and the sender is idle almost all the time)Would a packet-switched network or a circuit-switched network be more appropriate for this application?Why?
⦁ You are designing a connection mechanism between two programs, sending packets of data over the internet. You are trying to choose a size for the packets to be sent, depending on the capacity of the channel (channel bandwidth). For example, if a channel has a capacity of 10KB, then you can choose a packet size of 10KB, and send one packet, or choose a packet size of 5KB and send two packets...Etc. The problem you face is that the two programs are at two different locations, with two different channel capacities. If the first channel had a capacity of 3201KB, and the second channel had a capacity of 4565KB, find the maximum packet size that is suitable for both channels.
Think about a program that continuously delivers data (for example, the sender generates an N-bit unit of data every k time units, where k is small and fixed). Briefly respond to the following questions. Is this a circuit- or a packet-switched network? Why? b. Assume only the traffic from the aforementioned applications is sent via a packet-switched network. Is congestion management necessary if the total of the application data rates is less than the capacity of each link? Why?
Write a program to simulate the behavior of the CSMA/CD protocol over Ethernet when ther are N stations ready to transmit while a frame is being transmitted. Your program should report the times when each station successfully starts sending its frame. Assume that a clock tick occurs every slot time (51.2 microsec) and a collison detection and sending of a jamming sequence takes one slot time. All frames are the maximum length allowed.

Computer Science To answer this question, you may need to write a small program. Consider the following case: current cwnd value is 1000 bytes and 1 MSS is 10 bytes (=1 TCP packet carries 10 bytes of payload). With the basic formula, after 1 RTT, the congestion window would be updated to 1010 bytes (1000 + 10). What would be the value of window if ACK clocking is used? It would be a non-integer number, so give value including only two digits after comma
a. Suppose you have the following packet with the bits: 01111001 11001111 and 11110011 10011000. What is the Internet checksum of this packet? b. Suppose you have the following packet with the bits: 11000011 10101010, 10010001 01000101 and 11000011 10011000. What is the Internet checksum of this packet? c. For the packet in a), give an example where one bit is flipped in each of the two 16-bit words and yet the checksum doesn't change.
Consider sending real-time data from Host A to Host B over a packet-switched network. Host A takes an 8-bit measurement every millisecond, and Host A collects these into 64-byte packets. There is one link between Hosts A and B; its transmission rate is 5 Mbps, its propagation delay is 2 × 108 meters/sec, and its length is 3 km. As soon as Host A gathers a packet, it sends the packet to Host B. How much time elapses from the time that Host A begins to take the first measurement in a packet until the entire packet reaches Host B?
Consider the figure below in which a TCP sender and receiver communicate over a connection in which the segments can be lost. The TCP sender wants to send a total of 10 segments to the receiver and sends an initial window of 5 segments at t = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Suppose the initial value of the sequence number is 151 and every segment sent to the receiver each contains 612 bytes. The delay between the sender and receiver is 7 time units, and so the first segment arrives at the receiver at t = 8, and an ACK for this segment arrives at t = 15. As shown in the figure, 1 of the 5 segments is lost between the sender and the receiver, but none of the ACKs are lost. Assume there are no timeouts and any out of order segments received are thrown out.
Consider the figure below in which a TCP sender and receiver communicate over a connection in which the sender->receiver segments may be lost. The TCP sender sends an initial window of 5 segments. Suppose the initial value of the sender->receiver sequence number is 362 and the first 5 segments each contain 638 bytes. The delay between the sender and receiver is 7 time units, and so the first segment arrives at the receiver at t=8. As shown in the figure below, 3 of the 5 segment(s) are lost between the segment and receiver.
Skype is a well‑known VoIP system used not only for peer‑to‑peer conversations but also for audio and video conferencing involving three or more callers. Assume a video conference with a central server on Skype has N callers, and each caller generates a constant data stream at rate r bps. How many bits per second does the call initiator need to send? How many bits does each of other N‑1 callers need to send?
