NETWORK:-
Network is a telecommunications network that allows computers to exchange data. In computer
networks, networked computing devices pass data to each other along data connections
(network links). Data is transferred in the form of packets. The connections between nodes are
established using either cable media or wireless media. The best-known computer network is
the Internet. A network is a group of two or more computer systems linked together.
USES OF COMPUTER NETWORKS
1. Access to remote programs: A company that has produced a model simulating the world
economy may allow its clients to log in over the network and run the program to see how
various projected inflation rates, interest rates might affect their business.
2. Access to remote data bases: It may soon be easy for the average person sitting at home to
make reservations for trains, buses, hotels, theatres and so on, anywhere in the world with
instant confirmation. Net banking and the automated newspaper also fall in this category.
3. Value-added communication facilities: High-quality communication facilities tend to reduce
the need for physical proximity. Everyone in the world, have an ability to send and receive
electronic mail.
