The performance of a client-server system is strongly influenced by two major network characteristics: the bandwidth of the network (how many bits/sec it can transport) and the latency (how many seconds it takes for the first bit to get from the client to the server). Give an example of a network that exhibits high bandwidth but also high latency. Also give an example of one that has both low bandwidth and low latency. Justify/explain your answers. (

A bandwidth is the maximum rate of transfer of data across a given path

Latency refers to the delay of data to travel or move between a source and destination

An example of a high bandwidth and high latency network is the Satellite Internet connectivity.

An example of a low bandwidth and latency network is the telephone system connection.

Explanation:

Solution

Bandwidth: Bandwidth determines how fast data can be transferred for example, how many bits/sec it can transport.

Latency: It refers to the delay or how long it takes for data to travel between it's source and destination.

An example of a high bandwidth and high latency network is the Satellite internet connection.

Satellite internet connection: This is responsible for the connectivity of several systems, it has a high bandwidth, since satellite are in space, due to distance it has a high latency.

So, satellite internet connection is compensated with high latency and high bandwidth.

An example of a low bandwidth and low latency network is the Telephony network.

Telephone/telephony internet connection: This connection does not have much data for transfer. it has low size audio files of which a low bandwidth range. also for both end or end users to understand and talk to each other, it has low latency.

depends on what software you are using. google docs or microsoft word or other?
