Contents • • • • • Introduction Example: a diplomatic negotiation Principles of a layered model Connection oriented and connectionless communications Communication networks according to a layered model Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p1 Connection Oriented Communications Typical example: A telephone conversation 3 step process: 1. Establish connection using the signaling protocol 2. Use connection using an informal protocol being billed for duration of usage 3. Terminate connection using the signaling protocol Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p2 Connection Oriented Communications A temporary communication channel is built through the telephone network Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p3 Connection Oriented Communications • Network has a state : the list of active connections • Network can guarantee Quality of Service – Reservation of transmission capacity at connection establishment – Monitoring of data transfer and correction of transmission errors by retransmission • Network is fragile : state can be lost. • Application domain : – Very efficient for transferring high volumes of data – Mandatory if stringent Quality of Service requirements – Poor initial response times due to connection setup – Inapplicable if nodes have high failure rate. Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p4 Connectionless Communications Typical example: The postal service Letters, with an address and a stamp, are individually carried from a Post office box to a personal mailbox Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p5 Connectionless Communications No connections are needed to carry mail Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p6 Connectionless Communications • The network is stateless. • No guaranteed Quality of Service. – No reservation of transmission capacity – No error correction by retransmission • Network is robust : – No state stored in any node – Each node operates almost independently from others • Application domain : – Whenever single message response times are critical – Whenever nodes are unreliable Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p7 Connection Policy Layer independance Level (n+1) entity Connectionless protocol Level (n+1) entity Connection oriented protocol Level (n) entity Level (n) entity Level (n-1) Service Provider Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p8 Contents • • • • • Introduction Example: a diplomatic negotiation Principles of a layered model Connection oriented and connectionless communications Communication networks according to a layered model Postacademic Interuniversity Course in Information Technology – Module C1 p9 A two layers model.
