Understanding Computer Networks: Types and Components

Computer Networks

A computer network is a set of interconnected computers designed to share information, resources, and services.

Network Types by Scope

  • Local Area Network (LAN): Limited scope, typically less than 2 km.
  • Metropolitan Area Network (MAN): Covers a wider area, usually less than 100 km.
  • Wide Area Network (WAN): Scope extends over 100 km.

Advantages of Networking

  • Sharing: Enables sharing of data, hardware, and software.
  • Reduced Costs: Maximizes the price/performance ratio of network elements.

Operating System Kernels, Multitasking, and Task Scheduling

Kernel Fundamentals and Operating System Types

Kernel: The kernel is the core of the operating system, responsible for managing system resources and communication between hardware and other system services. It acts as an abstraction layer between system resources and user applications, containing a set of system libraries and services. The kernel handles process management, memory (primary and secondary) management, file system management, I/O (device) management, and time management.
