Study Notes
Ad-Hoc Networks
- Ad-hoc networks are temporary networks created for a specific purpose.
- They can be set up using open Wi-Fi networks or tethering/personal hotspots.
- Ad-hoc networks offer simplified connection and reduced costs.
- However, they are slower than traditional networks.
- Additionally, ad-hoc networks are less secure.
- Open networks lack the security mechanisms of password-protected networks.
Performance Issues with Ad-Hoc Networks
- Ad-hoc networks have limited maximum speed.
- They are affected by interference.
- Ad-hoc network devices have a smaller maximum data transfer speed.
- Wireless routers have higher-powered antennas, providing greater range.
- Ad-hoc networks produce a lot more interference with multiple devices.
Network Coverage
- Cities are likely to have excellent network coverage due to higher population levels and telecom provider investment.
- Developed countries will provide excellent network coverage due to investment.
- Developing countries may lack sufficient investment in network infrastructure, leading to limited coverage and modern broadband speeds.
Modern Technology's Impact on Workplaces
- Modern technology allows for global collaboration.
- Employees can work remotely.
- Organizations have more diverse and multicultural work environments.
- Individuals with disabilities have greater access to the workplace.
- Workplaces operate 24/7 due to customer expectations and online services.
- Employees can work remotely, offering flexibility and reduced travel.
Collaboration Tools
- Collaboration tools support teamwork across different locations.
- Cloud storage and computing are examples of collaboration tools.
- Collaboration tools facilitate remote work and increase flexibility.
- They reduce travel, thereby lowering stress and saving time.
