It also demands an examination of how victimization patterns vary across races and how sanctions affect future chances at life. Criminal sanctions are usually inflicted by a state; however, the determination of the severity of the sanctions needs justification (Pager, ...

In his argument, he believes that the spirit falls into historical time and at the same time be speculative thought. Hegelian Conceptuality clearly outlays itself as separation and understanding of the difference between the “I” and non-I. The conceptuality brings itself in the ...

Article summary: Does servant leadership foster creativity and innovation? A multi-level mediation study of identification and prototypicality

The main goal of the multi-level study conducted by Yoshida D.T. et al. (2013) was to assess how servant leadership influences employee creativity and team innovation simultaneously. Businesses often gain their competitive advantage through employees that come up with creative, innovative ideas and work as a team to implement them. However, although these factors are highly interdependent, prior researches only focused on either creativity or innovation. No fundamental attempts were made to study how certain leadership behaviors simultaneously affect these two aspects on different levels. Former researches examined how transformational leadership or leader-member relationship influenced employee creativity. As it was ...

The Network, Data Link, and Physical Layers

Introduction

The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model has served as a reference for the most basic elements of computer networking since its inception in 1984. Based on a proposal created by the International Standards Organization (ISO), the OSI model was developed “to provide a set of design standards for equipment manufacturers so they could communicate with each other” (Miller, 2001). It consists of seven layers, which, from top to bottom, are the following: Application, Presentation, Session, Transport, Network, Data Link, and Physical.

I have learned, through the research I conducted, that the three upper layers perform the application-specific functions such as connection ...

However, this term refers to the internal factors in the company that are defined by the managing ...

The Top-Down Approach

Network Architecture and Design: The Top-Down Approach

Network architecture and design are many times two separate stages in a network implementation project. McCabe (2007) identifies network architecture as a higher level concept of a network. He says that it focuses on more general relationships between the major components of a network. For example, "addressing and routing, network management, performance, and security." (p. 211). The design stage of the project normally starts after the higher level architectural plan has been approved. This is where the real detailed work starts and the nuts and bolts start to come together. In designing your network, ...

The open system interconnection model (OSI) is based on the open system interconnection. The communication system is sub divided into layers with each layer providing services to the other layers (Behrouz, 2006, p. 17). This model is composed of seven layers arranged logically in order from the physical layer to the application layer. The physical layer performs majorly electrical and mechanical aspects of the network. These includes the establishment and termination of connection to a physical medium and conveying bit streams in form of electrical impulse, light or radio signal. The physical layer protocols are the ATM, RS232 and ...
