New cards
What is FDM and TDM circuit switching? How FDM is different from TDM?
TDM stands for Time Division Multiplexing. FDM stands for Frequency Division Multiplexing. TDM works well with both analog as well as digital signals.
One of the major differences between FDM and TDM is that in FDM, multiple signals are transmitted by occupying different frequency slots. As against in TDM, the various signal gets transmitted in multiple time slots. We all know that multiplexing is a technique of transmission of multiple signals over a common channel. FDM divides the channel into multiple, but smaller frequency ranges to accommodate more users, while TDM divides a channel by allocating a time period for each channel. TDM provides much better flexibility compared to FDM.

37
New cards
Explain the GET and POST method type in the HTTP web server. What is the difference between GET and POST method in a Web Server?
The method specified determines how form data is submitted to the server. When the method is GET, all form data is encoded into the URL, appended to the action URL as query string parameters. With POST, form data appears within the message body of the HTTP request.
The two methods are distinct where GET method adds the encoded data to the URI while in case of POST method the data is appended to the body rather than URI. Additionally, GET method is used for retrieving the data. Conversely, POST method is used for storing or updating the data.
38

81
New cards
In Java Network, input/output is done using streams. Streams are an abstraction. Explain what this means and why it is important.
a source from which data can be read or a destination to which data can be written. A stream is an abstraction because it represents the abstract idea of a source or destination of data, as opposed to specific, concrete sources and destinations such as a particular file or network connection. The stream abstraction is important because it allows programmers to do input/output using the same methods for a wide variety of data sources and destinations. It hides the details of working with files, networks, and the screen and keyboard.
82
New cards
Explain what is meant by the client/server model of network communication. Explain specifically.
a server program runs on a computer somewhere on the Internet and "listens" for connection requests from client programs. The server makes some services available. A client program connects to the server to access that service. For example, a Web server has a collection of Web pages. A Web browser acts as a client for the Web server. It makes a connection to the server and sends a request for one of its pages. The server responds by transmitting a copy of the requested page back to the client.
83
New cards
In Networking, what is a socket? Explain specifically.
one endpoint of a network connection. A program uses a socket to communicate with another program over the network. Data written by a program to the socket at one end of the connection is transmitted to the socket on the other end of the connection, where it can be read by the program at that end.
84
New cards
In Java Networking, what is a ServerSocket and how is it used? Explain specifically.
a server program to listen for connection requests from client programs. If listener refers to an object that belongs to Java's ServerSocket class, then calling the function listener.accept() will wait for a connection request and will return a Socket object that can be used to communicate with the client that made the request.
