High dependency on Internet/ Networks

Fundamental knowledge
Why there are standards for networking
In general, standardization has following outcomes:
Confidence: demonstrates quality
Performance: improves efficiency, fine tune performance
Growth: facilitate economic growth
Sustainability: make technology safer, interoperable
Innovation: provides essential platform
Competition
Why there are standards for networking
ensure the interoperability of networking technologies by
defining the rules of communication among networked devices.

help ensure products of different vendors are able to work


together in a network without risk of incompatibility.

•Example: Ethernet IEEE 802.3


Why we use Networks?

Course Objective and Outcomes
To provide the fundamental knowledge of computer networks
through the understanding of ISO-OSI Model
Course Outcomes
Discuss the fundamental of computer networks, its types,
transmission modes and different reference models
Implement error free transmission of data and analyze data
collision with various protocols
Implement various routing and congestion control algorithms
over a network
Identify Quality of service parameters and addressing
techniques
ISO OSI Model: background
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) [1977]:
conducted a program to develop general standards and methods
of networking
They came up with [1983] Basic Reference Model for Open
Systems Interconnection, usually referred to as the Open
Systems Interconnection Reference Model ,simply OSI model
OSI had two major components, an abstract model of
networking seven-layer model, and a set of specific protocols.
It promoted the idea of a consistent model of protocol layers,
defining interoperability between network devices and software.
