A hub, switch, and router each serve different functions in a network. A hub simply connects devices together but broadcasts all data to all ports. A switch connects devices and sends data only to the port of the intended recipient to avoid congestion. A router connects multiple networks together, both wired and wireless, and chooses the best path to send data packets between the networks.

Hubs and switches connect computers to create a LAN.HubA Hub co.pdfinfo54093
Hubs and switches connect computers to create a LAN.
Hub:
A Hub connects multiple computers together in a Local Area Network (LAN). All information
sent to the hub is then sent through each port to every device in the network.
When a hub receives a packet at one of its ports from a PC on the network, it transmits the
packet to all of its ports and, thus, to all of the other PCs on the network. This mean bandwidth
was wasted because all traffic was sent to all ports.
If two or more PCs on the network try to send packets at the same time then a collision occur.
When that happens all of the PCs have to retransmit with different time to resolve the conflict.
The process is prescribed in the Ethernet Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection
(CSMA/CD) protocol.
Switch:
A switch is used to connect various network segments. In telecommunications, a switch is a
network device that selects a path or circuit for sending a unit of data to its next destination. A
switch may also include the function of the router, a device or program that can determine the
route and specifically what adjacent network point the data should be sent to. In general, a switch
is a simpler and faster mechanism than a router, which requires knowledge about the network
and how to determine the route. In networks, a device that filters and forwards packets between
LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer and sometimes the network layer of the
OSI Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join
segments are called switched LAN.
The main difference between Switch and Hub is, A switch is effectively a higher-performance
alternative to a hub. People tend to benefit from a switch over a hub if their home network has
four or more computers, or if they want to use their home network for applications that generate
significant amounts of network traffic, like multiplayer games or heavy music file sharing.
Hubs operate using a broadcast model and switches operate using a virtual circuit model. When
four computers are connected to a hub, for example, and two of those computers communicate
with each other, hubs simply pass through all network traffic to each of the four computers.
Switches, on the other hand, are capable of determining the destination of each individual traffic
element and selectively forwarding data to the one computer that actually needs it. By generating
less network traffic in delivering messages, a switch performs better than a hub on busy
networks.

Quite simply explained we use networks for communication between computers, sharing of data and peripherals. In the business world we use networks for ease of administration and to cut costs.
Sharing data example imagine an office with 5 secretaries working on 5 different computers, one requires a file from another computer in a non networked office this file would have to be written to a portable media then loaded onto the computer. In a networked office the file could be accessed via the network from a shared folder.
Sharing peripherals example the same office with 5 secretaries working on 5 different computers, in order to print their work each computer would need to have a printer attached. In a networked office you could have one shared printer, cutting costs
In the field of Computer Science and Information Technology, Computer Networks plays significant role. This Presentation provides newly Students to aware the Network, Network devices and what are the possibilities to connect or communicate large geographical areas.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

1. Hubs VS Switches VS Routers
What is a Network Switch versus a Router and the Hub? Switches create a network.
Routers connect networks. A router links computers to the Internet, so users can share
the connection. A router acts as a dispatcher, choosing the best path for information to
travel so it’s received quickly. So a switch is used for wired networking connections.
Routers can connect wired or wireless (WiFi) networks. Hubs are commonly used to
connect segments of a LAN.
Router
A router is a more sophisticated device than a switch. Traditional routers are designed to
join multiple area networks (LANs and WANs). Routers serve as intermediate
destinations for network traffic. They receive TCP/IP packets, look inside each packet to
identify the source and target IP addresses, and then forward these packets as needed
to ensure the data reaches its final destination.
Switch
A network switch is a small hardware device that joins multiple computers together within
one local area network (LAN). Switches are incapable of joining multiple networks or
sharing an Internet connection. A home network with a switch must designate one
computer as the gateway to the Internet, and that device must possess two network
adapters for sharing, one for the home LAN and one for the Internet WAN. With a router,
all home computers connect to the router equally, and it performs the equivalent gateway
functions.
Hub
A common connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to
connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports. When a packet arrives at one
port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
The Differences Between Hubs, Switches, and Routers on the Network
Today most routers have become something of a Swiss Army knife, combining the
features and functionality of a router and switch/hub into a single unit. So conversations
regarding these devices can be a bit misleading — especially to someone new to
computer networking.
The functions of a router, hub and a switch are all quite different from one another, even if
at times they are all integrated into a single device. Let's start with the hub and the switch
since these two devices have similar roles on the network.
The Hub and Switch Have Similar Roles
Each serves as a central connection for all of your network equipment and handles a
data type known as frames. Frames carry your data. When a frame is received, it is
1
2. amplified and then transmitted on to the port of the destination PC. The big difference
between these two devices is in the method in which frames are being delivered.
In a hub, a frame is passed along or "broadcast" to every one of its ports. It doesn't
matter that the frame is only destined for one port. The hub has no way of distinguishing
which port a frame should be sent to. Passing it along to every port ensures that it will
reach its intended destination. This places a lot of traffic on the network and can lead to
poor network response times.
Additionally, a 10/100Mbps hub must share its bandwidth with each and every one of its
ports. So when only one PC is broadcasting, it will have access to the maximum
available bandwidth. If, however, multiple PCs are broadcasting, then that bandwidth will
need to be divided among all of those systems, which will degrade performance.
A switch, however, keeps a record of the MAC addresses of all the devices connected to
it. With this information, a switch can identify which system is sitting on which port. So
when a frame is received, it knows exactly which port to send it to, without significantly
increasing network response times. And, unlike a hub, a 10/100Mbps switch will allocate
a full 10/100Mbps to each of its ports. So regardless of the number of PCs transmitting,
users will always have access to the maximum amount of bandwidth. It's for these
reasons why a switch is considered to be a much better choice then a hub.
Routers are Completely Different Devices
Routers are completely different devices. Where a hub or switch is concerned with
transmitting frames, a router's job, as its name implies, is to route packets to other
networks until that packet ultimately reaches its destination. One of the key features of a
packet is that it not only contains data, but the destination address of where it's going.
A router is typically connected to at least two networks, commonly two Local Area
Networks (LANs) or Wide Area Networks (WAN) or a LAN and its ISP's network . for
example, your PC or workgroup and EarthLink. Routers are located at gateways, the
places where two or more networks connect. Using headers and forwarding tables,
routers determine the best path for forwarding the packets. Router use protocols such as
ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two
hosts.
Integrated Routers and Features
Today, a wide variety of services are integrated into most broadband routers. A router will
typically include a 4 - 8 port Ethernet switch (or hub) and a Network Address Translator
(NAT). In addition, they usually include a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server, Domain Name Service (DNS) proxy server and a hardware firewall to protect the
LAN from malicious intrusion from the Internet.
2
3. All routers have a WAN Port that connects to a DSL or cable modem for broadband
Internet service and the integrated switch allows users to easily create a LAN. This
allows all the PCs on the LAN to have access to the Internet and Windows file and printer
sharing services.
Routers might have a single WAN port and a single LAN port and are designed to
connect an existing LAN hub or switch to a WAN. Ethernet switches and hubs can be
connected to a router with multiple PC ports to expand a LAN. Depending on the
capabilities (kinds of available ports) of the router and the switches or hubs, the
connection between the router and switches/hubs may require either straight-thru or
crossover (null-modem) cables. Some routers even have USB ports, and more
commonly, wireless access points built into them.
Some of the more high-end or business class routers will also incorporate a serial port
that can be connected to an external dial-up modem, which is useful as a backup in the
event that the primary broadband connection goes down, as well as a built in LAN printer
server and printer port.
Besides the inherent protection features provided by the NAT, many routers will also have
a built-in, configurable, hardware-based firewall. Firewall capabilities can range from the
very basic to quite sophisticated devices. Among the capabilities found on leading routers
are those that permit configuring TCP/UDP ports for games, chat services, and the like,
on the LAN behind the firewall.
So, in short, a hub glues together an Ethernet network segment, a switch can connect
multiple Ethernet segments more efficiently and a router can do those functions plus
route TCP/IP packets between multiple LANs and/or WANs; and much more of course.
