Bandwidth Management and Strategies for Improving Network Speed
Bandwidth management and strategies for improving network speed
Abstract
All over the world, there are different types of network and also millions of people trying to carry out one two transactions over these network. Often times, data transactions are very slow especially when it involves the internet. There should be some way to manage and increase the speed of data transactions over different networks and the internet inclusive. The aim of this paper is to expose us to the different bandwidth management techniques out there as well as other strategies to improving network speed. Amongst these techniques include Traffic shaping (rate limiting), Scheduling algorithms, Congestion avoidance and there subcategories. This presentation will also give us an overview of the different types of networks of personal area network is one.
INTRODUCTION
A network is a group of devices connected to each other. Networks may be classified into a wide variety of characteristics, such as the medium used to transport the data, communications protocol used, scale, topology, benefit, and organizational scope.
Therefore, computer network, or simply a network, is a collection of computers and other hardware interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information. Where at least one process in one device is able to send/receive data to/from at least one process residing in a remote device, then the two devices are said to be in a networked.
Networks are often classified by their physical or organizational extent or their purpose. Usage, trust level, and access rights differ between these types of networks.
Personal area network
A personal area network (PAN) is a computer network used for communication among computer and different information technological devices close to one person. Some examples of devices that are used in a PAN are personal computers, printers, fax machines, telephones, PDAs, scanners, and even video game consoles. A
