    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_Tracer

    Packet Tracer is a cross-platform visual simulation tool designed by Cisco Systems that allows users to create network topologies and imitate modern computer networks.The software allows users to simulate the configuration of Cisco routers and switches using a simulated command line interface.

  3. Human processor model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_processor_model

    The standard definition for MHP is: The MHP draws an analogy between the processing and storage areas of a computer, with the perceptual, motor, cognitive and memory areas of the computer user. The human processor model uses the cognitive, perceptual, and motor processors along with the visual image, working memory, and long term memory storages.

    1. Check to see if the destination is an address ‘owned’ by this computer. If so, process the packet. If not: a. Check to see if IP Forwarding is set to ‘Yes’. If no, the packet is destroyed. If yes, then i. Check to see if a network attached to this computer owns the destination address. If yes, route the packet to the appropriate network.

    An internetwork is the connection of multiple different types of computer networks to form a single computer network using higher-layer network protocols and connecting them together using routers. The Internet is the largest example of internetwork. It is a global system of interconnected governmental, academic, corporate, public, and private ...

  6. Network simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_simulation

    In computer network research, network simulation is a technique whereby a software program replicates the behavior of a real network. This is achieved by calculating the interactions between the different network entities such as routers, switches, nodes, access points, links, etc. [1] Most simulators use discrete event simulation in which the modeling of systems in which state variables ...
