Error Detection in Computer Networks


Error
A condition when the receiver’s information does not matches with the sender’s information. During transmission, digital signals suffer from noise that can introduce errors in the binary bits travelling from sender to receiver. That means a 0 bit may change to 1 or a 1 bit may change to 0.


Error Detecting Codes (Implemented either at Data link layer or Transport Layer of OSI Model)
Whenever a message is transmitted, it may get scrambled by noise or data may get corrupted. To avoid this, we use error-detecting codes which are additional data added to a given digital message to help us detect if any error has occurred during transmission of the message.


Basic approach used for error detection is the use of redundancy bits, where additional bits are added to facilitate detection of errors.
Some popular techniques for error detection are:
1. Simple Parity check
2. Two-dimensional Parity check
3. Checksum
4. Cyclic redundancy check

Types of Errors

There may be three types of errors:
  • Single bit error
    Single bit error
    In a frame, there is only one bit, anywhere though, which is corrupt.
  • Multiple bits error
    Multiple bits error
    Frame is received with more than one bits in corrupted state.
  • Burst error
    Burst error
    Frame contains more than1 consecutive bits corrupted.
Error control mechanism may involve two possible ways:
  • Error detection
  • Error correction

INTRODUCTION Digital computer concept:- 1. Digital computers are designed to store, process and communicate information in digital form. 2. Digital computer is any of a class of digital devices capable of solving problems by processing information in discrete form. 3. It is used for processing data represented by discrete, localized physica signals, as the presence or electic current. 4.The main three components of digital computer:- >input:- The user gives a set of input data through input devices. >Processing :- The input data is processed with the help of CPU by well defined and finite sequence of step. >Output : - Some data available from the processing step are output to the user. TYPE OF DIGITAL COMPUTER :- 1.Microcomputer/Desktop computer 2.Minicomputer 3.Mainframe computer 4.Supercomputers Microcomputer :- 1.Microcomputer is also called a personal computer or desktop computer. 2.It includes a microprocessor, memory, and

INTRODUCTION OF DBMS

-
What is Database :- The database is a collection of inter-related data which is used to retrieve, insert and delete the data efficiently. It is also used to organize the data in the form of a table, schema, views, and reports, etc. For example: The college Database organizes the data about the admin, staff, students and faculty etc. Using the database, you can easily retrieve, insert, and delete the information. DBMS (Database Management System):- Database management system is a software which is used to manage the database. For example: MySQL, Oracle, etc are a very popular commercial database which is used in different applications.DBMS provides an interface to perform various operations like database creation, storing data in it, updating data, creating a table in the database and a lot more.It provides protection and security to the database. In the case of multiple users, it also maintains data consistency. DBMS allows users the following tasks:- Data Definition: I

Cache Memory in Computer Organization Cache Memory  is a special very high-speed memory. It is used to speed up and synchronizing with high-speed CPU. Cache memory is costlier than main memory or disk memory but economical than CPU registers. Cache memory is an extremely fast memory type that acts as a buffer between RAM and the CPU. It holds frequently requested data and instructions so that they are immediately available to the CPU when needed. Cache memory is used to reduce the average time to access data from the Main memory. The cache is a smaller and faster memory which stores copies of the data from frequently used main memory locations. There are various different independent caches in a CPU, which stored instruction and data. Levels of memory: Level 1 or Register – It is a type of memory in which data is stored and accepted that are immediately stored in CPU. Most commonly used register is accumulator, Program counter, address register etc. Level 2 or Cac
