...The situation is a manager is having a difficult time using the new routing and scheduling software that the company developed to provide our customers with a user-friendly scheduling tool. The company has invested a significant sum in the software and the goal is 100% compliance from every location. A description of your plan that addresses the following: My plan is to visit the location and work with the manager so I understand his concerns. Moreover, the goal is to acknowledge his concerns, but will have to steer him towards the benefits of using the program and overcome any objections he has to employing the tool. What do you need to consider in order to be an effective coach in this situation? I need to understand the root cause of his hesitation so I can craft an effective strategy for our meeting. As I know this manager well, I’m assuming is hesitation is due to unwillingness to embrace change. Which steps in the coaching process might you apply to this coaching situation? My two main avenues for working with this manager will be with the counseling and educating functions. This manager conveyed to me that he feels he can do a better job scheduling manually than the software program. Therefore, I will start with educating the manager on all the bells and whistles that the software provides and how the program will benefit him and his team, not to mention the customer. Hopefully, when he sees the benefits first hand, he will open up to change and see this as a...

...when machine 1 uses the the ack and the syn to start sending data. This is better than a 2 way handshake because of the redundancy of the the Ack/Syn system.(R6) 6. When do we use Upward Multiplexing and Downward Multiplexing? The upward multiplexing multiple connections are multiplexed into one Network connection. Download multiplexing is when you have a situation where you need high bandwidth and so you open of many different network connections to push the data. So the data is brought into the downward Multiplexor and then broadcast out on many network connections. You use upward multiplexing when you only have one network connection and use downward multiplexing when you need to use many network connections to move the data.(R7) 7. Suppose we design a reliable transport protocol that use only NAKs as feedback from receiver to sender: If the data rate is low (sender sends packets infrequently),is a NAK-only protocol better than a ACK-based protocol? Why? - The ACK protocol is better when the data rate is low because you can send an acknowledgement that you actually receive the packet and not congest the network. This Would ensure consistency in the data. (R8) if the data rate is high and the network drops only a small number of packets is a NAK-only protocol better than a ACK-based protocol? Why? In The case of a high data rate on a network NAK protocol is better because it only sends a signal when there's something wrong with the network. Therefore freeing up valuable...

...Christopher A. Lee Sr. NT1310 Week 3 Assignment.Network Topology Paper Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer network.[1][2] Essentially, it is the topological[3] structure of a network, and may be depicted physically or logically. Physical topology refers to the placement of the network's various components, including device location and cable installation, while logical topology shows how data flows within a network, regardless of its physical design. Distances between nodes, physical interconnections, transmission rates, and/or signal types may differ between two networks, yet their topologies may be identical. A good example is a local area network (LAN): Any given node in the LAN has one or more physical links to other devices in the network; graphically mapping these links results in a geometric shape that can be used to describe the physical topology of the network. Conversely, mapping the data flow between the components determines the logical topology of the network.
