Study Notes
Network Topologies
- Failure of the central node in a star network can disable the entire network.
- Bus network covers the largest area due to its single backbone communication medium.
- The bus network uses a common backbone as a shared communication medium.
- LAN allows rapid communication among users in an office building.
Wireless Communication
- Radio frequency range is vulnerable to interception, posing a significant disadvantage.
- Microwave transmission enables high-speed data transfer without the need for physical cables.
- Infrared communication is limited to short distances, which is a common drawback.
- Cellular communication commonly relies on microwave transmission for data exchange.
- 5G technology enables high-speed data transmission on frequencies above 24 GHz.
E-Commerce and Government
- B2B e-commerce reduces resupply times and costs by connecting virtual supply chains.
- E-government aims to simplify information sharing among citizens and government entities.
Economic Concepts
- People engage in bartering during economic downturns to acquire goods and services without cash expenditure.
Online Marketing
- Retargeting in online advertising aims to recapture shoppers who abandoned their carts through targeted ads.
Data Management and Analysis
- Reporting and querying tools present data in formatted views, such as graphs and charts.
- A data cube is crucial for OLAP as it summarizes numeric data across various dimensions.
- The conversion funnel visualizes the customer journey from interest to purchase.
- Knowledge Management (KM) encourages an open flow of ideas among various stakeholders to drive innovation.
- Business Intelligence (BI) focuses on data extraction, transformation, and presentation for better decision-making.
Data Visualization
- Data visualization enhances comprehension of numeric data by representing it visually, making it impactful.
- A word cloud illustrates word frequency, providing a visual representation of text data.
Software and Networking
- Mobile Device Management (MDM) software distributes security updates to mobile devices.
- Local Area Networks (LAN) perform tasks like printing documents and connecting devices within an office.
- The backbone in a bus network acts as a shared communication medium for all devices.
- A front-end processor manages communications for systems serving multiple users.
Data Science and Analytics
- Data scientists combine analytics, business acumen, and a deep understanding of data to derive insights.
- Mastery of statistics, mathematics, and programming is essential for a successful data scientist.
- Business analytics forecasts future results by analyzing past data trends.
General Knowledge
- ARPANET is recognized as the predecessor of the Internet.
- The Internet Protocol (IP) sets the rules for transmitting packets between hosts.
Miscellaneous Concepts
- A Learning System is a combination of software and hardware that adapts based on feedback received.
- Communities of Practice (COP) foster knowledge sharing among individuals with shared interests.
- Business Rule Management Systems (BRMS) utilize a business rule engine to execute and prioritize rules effectively.
