It defines protocol identifier as the identifier that points to a specific protocol used to search for a resource, using the example of the "http" protocol identifier in a URL. 2. It compares the HTTP and FTP protocols, noting differences in connections, ports used, suitability for file sizes, and authentication requirements. 3. It lists the key differences between server and client operating systems, such as number of users supported, complexity, medium/device run on, security, and examples. 4. It provides a list of the top 8 most commonly used open source web servers, including Apache, Nginx

AD-HOC SENSOR NETWORKS

1. what is the protocol identifier?


Protocol Identifier is defined as the identifier that points to a specific protocol which will be
utilized to search the resource. For example, consider the URL, or Uniform Resource Locator for
eHow, "http://www.ehow.com". In this URL, "http" is referred to as the Protocol Identifier.

URL
URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator. A URL is nothing more than the address of a given
unique resource on the Web. In theory, each valid URL points to a unique resource. Such
resources can be an HTML page, a CSS document, an image, etc.

Basics We use a Server OS for providing various We use a Client OS for obtaining
services to multiple numbers of clients. various services from any given
server.

Number of A Server OS is capable of serving multiple The Client OS is capable of serving

Complexity It is a complex type of OS. It is a fairly simple type of OS.

Medium A server OS basically runs on a given A client OS basically runs on various
