...In layered architecture of Network Models, one whole network process is divided into small tasks. Each small task is then assigned to a particular layer which works dedicatedly to process the task only. Every layer does only specific work. I have chooses application layer from the OSI model because the world experiences the Internet through the use of the World Wide Web, e-mail, and file-sharing programs. These applications, as well as others, provide the human interface to the underlying network, allowing you to send and receive information with relative ease. Most of the applications are intuitive; they can be accessed and used without the need to know how they work. As we continue to study the world of networking, it becomes more important to know how an application is able to format, transmit, and interpret messages that are sent and received across the network. INTRODUCTION Application layer is the highest most layers in OSI and TCP/IP layered model and this layer exists in both layered Models because of its significance which is interacting with user and user applications. This layer is for applications which are involved in communication system. A user may or may not directly interacts with these applications. Application layer is where the actual communication is initiated and reflects....

Currently there is an entire innovative group of software products that bring the value IT consultants are looking for. Many have been built to provide the competences essential to function as a service provider combined into the enterprise. “Organizations generally seek technology as a method to increase productivity, solve issues and save money. Not having a well-defined strategy for purchasing software could result in the purchase of varied software products and services that actually cost you more money in the long term, due to long-term maintenance costs, lack of use or the use of similar systems to fill in the feature gaps” (Rogers). Using the following criteria in evaluating software: functionality, cost and financial terms, vendor’s success stories, and security; it will guarantee that you select a software solution that meet a precise business necessity. In this paper I will describe how using the selected criteria would help in choosing a software application for an organization. Functionality When selecting a software application you must first look at the software’s functionality. The organization should ask the question: Does the package do what the organization needs?

...Application Software, Application Design, and Software Design Francisco P. Cano Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Application Software, Application Design, and Software Design The article by Jack W. Reeves that I chose delves deeply into what he believes software design is and whether or not software design is an engineering discipline. The author contends that it is not. To support this he relates a real life experience. He states: “Years ago I was attending a seminar where the question came up of whether software development is an engineering discipline or not. While I do not remember the resulting discussion, I do remember how it catalyzed my own thinking that the software industry has created some false parallels with hardware engineering while missing some perfectly valid parallels. In essence, I concluded that we are not software engineers because we do not realize what a software design really is. I am even more convinced of that today.” (Reeves, 1992) He continues by stating that the final goal of engineering is some type of documentation. He concludes that argument by stating “The final goal of any engineering activity is the some type of documentation. When a design effort is complete, the design documentation is turned over to the manufacturing team. This is a completely different group with completely different skills from the design team. If the design documents truly represent a complete design, the manufacturing team can proceed to build the product....

...Choosing Software Applications Choosing Software Applications As an employee of a large state government agency, it is very important to have hardware and software that allows employees to complete business processes in a more efficient and timely manner. Often the decision has to be made whether or not to purchase new software or develop it in-house by the IT department. If new software applications are developed, it is important that the software can easily integrate with pre-existing applications if a total overhaul is not being executed. Software development can be a very costly venture; therefore, the upfront and long-term cost of developing software in-house must be carefully considered as an option. Not only are there costs associated in developing the software, but there is also a cost related to the ongoing support and infrastructure required to operate and maintain the applications. When making the decision to develop new software in-house there are several different mechanisms that come into play, which are handled by a steering committee through the process of a system development life cycle (SDLC). From the viewpoint of an employee, the agency can utilize the IT department to help formulate the exact requirements of the system and can compare the different features that may be available within an software package that is already created. Thereafter, a cost-effective breakdown of developing the same software in-house is provided. The way the newly...
