A computer network connects multiple devices together through various communication methods to share resources and information. There are several types of networks including LAN, WAN, MAN, and PAN. In a peer-to-peer network, each computer shares its own resources directly with other computers. In a client-server network, servers provide centralized resources that clients can access. Computer networks allow for sharing of hardware, software, data, and provide communication benefits but also have costs of installation and administration.
A computer network is defined as the interconnection of two or more computers. It is done to enable the computers to communicate and share available resources.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. What is a Computer Network?
A system containing any combination of computers, computer terminals,
printers, audio or visual display devices, or telephones interconnected by
telecommunication equipment or cables: used to transmit or receive information.
The Network Diagram
3. Types of Network
There are many types of computer networking which are used world
wide these days. There are some types of network that are using
Worldwide:
LAN - Local Area Network
WAN - Wide Area Network
WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network
PAN - Personal Area Network
SAN - Storage Area Network
GAN - Global Area Network
MAN - Metropolitan Area Network
CAN - Controller Area Network
DAN - Desk Area Network
VPN - Virtual Private Network
8. Peer To Peer Network
In peer to peer network each computer is responsible for making its own
resources available to other computers on the network.
Each computer is responsible for setting up and maintaining its own
security for these resources.
Also each computer is responsible for accessing the required network
resources from peer to peer relationships.
Peer to peer network is useful for a small network containing less than 10
computers on a single LAN .
In peer to peer network each computer can function as both client and
server.
Peer to peer networks do not have a central control system. There are no
servers in peer networks.
Peer networks are amplified into home group.
9. Advantages & Disadvantages of Peer To Peer Network
Advantages:
Use less expensive
computer hardware
Easy to administer
No NOS required
More built in
redundancy
Easy setup & low cost
Disadvantages:
Not very secure
No central point of storage or file
archiving
Additional load on computer
because of resource sharing
Hard to maintain version control
10. Client/Server Network
In client-server network relationships, certain computers act as
server and other act as clients. A server is simply a computer, that
available the network resources and provides service to other
computers when they request it. A client is the computer running a
program that requests the service from a server.
Local area network(LAN) is based on client server network
relationship.
A client-server network is one on which all available network
resources such as files, directories, applications and shared devices,
are centrally managed and hosted and then are accessed by client.
Client serve network are defined by the presence of servers on a
network that provide security and administration of the network.
11. Advantages and Disadvantages of Client/Server Network
Advantages:
• Very secure
• Better performance
• Centralized backup
• very reliable
Disadvantages:
• Requires professional administration
• More hardware intensive
• More software intensive
• Expensive dedicated software
13. File server: These servers provide the services for storing, retrieving
and moving the data. A user can read, write, exchange and manage
the files with the help of file servers.
Printer server: The printer server is used for controlling and
managing printing on the network. It also offers the fax service to
the network users.
Application server: The expensive software and additional
computing power can be shared by the computers in a network with
he help of application servers.
Message server: It is used to co-ordinate the interaction between
users, documents and applications. The data can be used in the for
of audio, video, binary, text or graphics.
Database server: It is a type of application server
14. Applications of Computer Network :
Sharing of resources such as printers
Sharing of expensive software's and database
Communication from one computer to another computer
Exchange of data and information among users via network
Sharing of information over geographically wide areas.
15. Components of Computer Network
Two or more computers
Cables as links between the computers
A network interfacing card(NIC) on each computer
Switches
Software called operating system(OS)
16. Network Benefits
The network provided to the users can be divided into two categories:
Sharing
Connectivity
Sharing Resources
Types of resources are:
Hardware: A network allows users to share many hardware devices
such as printers , modems, fax machines, CD ROM, players, etc.
Software: sharing software resources reduces the cost of software
installation, saves space on hard disk.
17. Other Benefits of Computer Network
Increased speed
Reduced cost
Improved security
Centralized software managements
Electronic mail
Flexible access
Disadvantages of Computer Networks
High cost of installation
Requires time for administration
Failure of server
Cable faults
