A packet-switched network uses switches that schedule packets using a first-in-first-out (FIFO) discipline. Several people want to carry out a conference over this network. The conference is carried out via typed text for the most part, but, occasionally, one of the parties has to send a large video. This happens very rarely. Which of the following switching approaches is most suitable for this application?
(a) Circuit-switched
(b) Space-switched
(c) Message-switched
(d) Packet-switched
Correct answer is (d)
Your score on this question is: 0.00
Feedback:
See section 1.2.3 of the course notes.
(a) A circuit allocates a specific bandwidth to the conference. If this is high enough for the video, bandwidth will be mostly wasted; if this is low enough for efficiency, the video will take a very long time.

In the year 2000, telephone and cable television companies are competing for the home Internet market. A typical offering of ADSL by the telephone companies is for a 1.5 Mbps link into the home, while a common offering by the cable television companies is for a shared 27 Mbps link into the home. The cost is usually comparable for these two options. Suppose you want to display the images at home that are constantly sent over the Internet by a security camera elsewhere. The camera has a relatively low refresh rate and the transmission will approximately require a constant 300 Kbps. Of course, you will also want to use your computer to surf the Internet. Which of the following would be valid arguments to get a cable modem instead of ADSL?
The cable modem always has better bandwidth and latency than ADSL.
The cable TV company has more experience transmitting analog video.
The camera is connected to the Internet via the same cable TV company

Which of the following statements most closely agrees with your position regarding the reliability of the service provided by the data link layer?

(d) The data link layer's concern with reliability is an optimization, not a requirement.
Correct answer is (d)

A university has 20 computers in a laboratory that is currently served by several small 10 Base-T "Ethernet" hubs. The network performance has been found to be lacking, and an upgrade is planned. The computers usually have modest network needs (in the order of 500 Kbps), but one or two are occasionally used to receive high-quality remote video streams that require in the order of 10 Mbps. No more than two computers are used for this purpose at any given time, but any two may be used for this application. What would you suggest for the upgrade?
(a) Replace the hubs with 10 Base-T switches
(b) A 10 Base-T bridge to connect several existing hubs
