...A wireless mesh network is any wireless network where data is transmitted using mesh networking. That is, where nodes don't just send and receive data, but also serve as a relay for other nodes and each node collaborates in propagating data on the network. A wireless mesh network can be thought of as a collection of nodes where each mesh node is also a router. Compare this to a WiFi access point where service can be provided only within reach of the signal and when it is turned off, the connection is gone. Mesh nodes work differently by rerouting data to another hop which it is connected to, bypassing the empty area where a node might be off. Techopedia explains Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) The concept of mesh networking can be applied to both physical and wireless networking, but it's much more commmon for wireless networks given the cabling costs that would be required to implement as a physical topology. A key difference here is that mesh nodes work in a cooperative gain scheme where the more nodes that are active, the greater the bandwidth available Consider this analogy in traditional networking: when cars (data) coming from a wide road comes to a small bridge they all have to slow down to wait in line. To increase the number of cars going through, you need to make a bigger bridge (add bandwidth) which is then wasted in times of less traffic. In mesh networking, imagine people coming to a river, where in order to continue each person drops a rock to make a foot...

...Our updated Terms of Use will become effective on May 25, 2012. Find out more. Social networking service From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article is about the type of service. For the concept of relationships between people, see Social network. For a list of services, see List of social networking websites. A social networking service is an online service, platform, or site that focuses on facilitating the building of social networks or social relations among people who, for example, share interests, activities, backgrounds, or real-life connections. A social network service consists of a representation of each user (often a profile), his/her social links, and a variety of additional services. Most social network services are web-based and provide means for users to interact over the Internet, such as e-mail and instant messaging. Online community services are sometimes considered as a social network service, though in a broader sense, social network service usually means an individual-centered service whereas online community services are group-centered. Social networking sites allow users to share ideas, activities, events, and interests within their individual networks. The main types of social networking services are those that contain category places (such as former school year or classmates), means to connect with friends (usually with self-description pages), and a recommendation system linked to trust. Popular methods now combine...

...green computing is becoming increasingly important in IT systems, it presents challenging problems to system designers. Designers need to take into account energy consumption during the phase of system design and to find solutions to reduce it. Green computing involves all aspects of IT systems, such as chips, system architectures, compilers, operating systems, communication networks and application services, and so on[1]. Further, these aspects are interdependent and complicated. As a result, building lowcost and low-power-consumption systems is a challenging and important activity. Such a new computing paradigm introduces new technical challenges to system designers. In light of today’s requirements for green computing, we present latest research efforts that attempt to deal with them and indicate still open issues. We thus discuss the connotation of green computing and sketch our view on the next generation of IT systems for green computing. We further identify key issues relevant to green computing and evaluate different approaches to these problems. The scope of this survey covers basic concept as well as techniques and methods in support of green computing. The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In section 2, we introduce the connotation of green computing. In section 3, we look deeper into some key issues relevant to green computing and some real solutions are shown as well. Finally, section 4 points out...

...Koinsber bridge, in 1735. This problem lead to the concept of Eulerian Graph. Euler studied the problem of Koinsberg bridge and constructed a structure to solve the problem called Eulerian graph. In 1840, A.F Mobius gave the idea of complete graph and bipartite graph and Kuratowski proved that they are planar by means of recreational problems. The concept of tree, (a connected graph without cycles [1]) was implemented by Gustav Kirchhoff in 1845, and he employed graph theoretical ideas in the calculation of currents in electrical networks or circuits. In 1852, Thomas Gutherie found the famous four color problem. Then in 1856, Thomas. P. Kirkman and William R.Hamilton studied cycles on polyhydra and invented the concept called Hamiltonian graph by studying trips that visited certain sites exactly once. In 1913, H.Dudeney mentioned a puzzle problem. Eventhough the four color problem was invented it was solved only after a century by Kenneth Appel and Wolfgang Haken. This time is considered as the birth of Graph Theory. Graph theoretical concepts are widely used to study and model various applications, in different areas. They include, study of molecules, construction of bonds in chemistry and the study of atoms. Similarly, graph theory is used in sociology for example to measure actor prestige or to explore diffusion mechanisms. Graph theory is used in biology and conservation efforts where a vertex represents regions where certain species exist and the edges represent...

...the books are being applied practically in the real world. All six of us went through the case and discussed a lot. We got to now how the e-commerce is related with the Facebook, one of the most popular social networking sites. Question 1: What concepts in this chapter are illustrated in this case? Answer: The concepts of e-commerce and social networking are illustrated in this case. E-commerce refers to the use of the Internet and the Web to transact business. In this case, Facebook setup a website for users to create a profile and join various types of self-contained networks without paying any money. But base on its huge number of users, it offers opportunity for companies to do advertisement on the site. And Facebook also uses its resource of user information to make profit. The sellers can reach their target customers when they pay for the information and Facebook increase revenues by providing information of its users. That’s e-commerce.

...via the Internet, anonymity can be maintained through withholding information regarding the personal background, like the name, residence and institutional affiliation of a person. The combination of disembodiment and anonymity result to a technologically-mediated environment where a new mode of identity construction emerges (Tennyson, 2008). The model of identity represented in social networking sites such as Facebook, Friendster and MySpace was criticized by Alice Marwick. Marwick argues that the finite profile options in this social networking sites are greatly too limiting than with the diverse open-ended ways that people express themselves in face-to-face contact. According to Marwick, “the rigid profile structure encourages the user to present him or herself in a way that is partly constructed by the application, not the user”. She emphasized that the type of identity performance available in Facebook may be related to the capitalist interests of the sites. The user is portrayed as a consumer rather than a citizen (Roedl, 2009). Applications in Facebook and other social networking sites encourage people to define themselves through the entertainment products they utilize such as music, movies, books, and television show. The main idea of her argument is that early...

...Branding and marketing are important concepts for any business. This case study will explore the Cisco marketing case study in the Kotler and Keller, 2012 Marketing Management textbook. First off, the study will explore the differences between building a brand in a business to business context versus building a brand in a consumer market. Furthermore, the study will also explore if Cisco's plan to reach out to consumers is a viable one. First off, branding in a business to business application has some notable differences over the consumer market. Cisco had to utilize some ingenious methods of branding during the marketing of its routing and networking products. Cisco's original product line was made for sale to other businesses for use in the internet connectivity market. For Cisco to develop their brand, they had to develop a totally different approach than ones utilized in the consumer market. They had to specificity market their product to the companies who were operating data centers and server farms. In this type of industry, often good brands are developed by targeting specific types of consumers and in this case it was computer scientist and information technology experts. This can be accomplished in several ways. One method is essentially setting up sales meetings with potential information technology customers. Theses meetings can be utilized to get the brand name out there and possibly show off the superiority of the networking product. Additionally, targeted advertising...
