OSI Layers 1) Physical Layer: The physical layer is at the bottom of this model. It deals with crude data that is in the form of electrical signals. The data bits are sent as 0s and 1s. 0s correspond to low voltage signals and 1s correspond to high voltage signals. The mechanical aspects of communication‚ such as wires or connectors come under this layer. The physical layer also deals with how these wires‚ connectors‚ and voltage electrical signals work. Also‚ the process that is required for

The main focus of this book is about “thin-slicing” of human mind. Mankind often see the situation or people with a little of understanding. People try to recognize the situation they are in‚ resulting them to look at only a small portion of the whole thing. We humans often perceive things by what we look and hear.

Layers and mechanisms: A new taxonomy for the Bullwhip Effect Giovanni Miragliotta In this article‚ Giovanni Miragliotta has two main purposes. The first one is to strengthen the knowledge on the dynamics of a supply chain via a deep review of the Bullwhip Effect. The second one is to build a new framework abled to classify the causes of the Bullwhip effect. Furthermore‚ this framework can distinguish layers and mechanisms that lead to Bullwhip Effect and so help managers to better understand

1. Physical Layer. Is the physical connection between the sender and the receiver. It includes all the hardware devices (computers‚ modems‚ and hubs) and physical media (cables and satellites). This layer specifies the type of connection and the electrical signals‚ radio waves‚ or light pulses that pass through it. 2. Data Link Layer. Is responsible for moving a message from one computer to the next computer in the network path from the sender to the receiver. This layer has 3 functions: a
