identify different designs.
CO2: analyze how information transforms while moving through network and
understand different technologies used to improve efficiency of communication.
CO3: understand how to preserve the integrity of data communication on network.
CO4: design and engineer routes to create interconnect of nodes .
CO5: understand working of world wide web and electronic mail technologies.
CO6: Design and implement a network protocol.
