channel of 200 kbps. What is the throughput if the system(all stations
together)produces
a. 1000 frames per second?
b. 500 frames per second?

b) A slotted ALOHA network transmits 200-bit frames using a shared Apply
channel with a 200-kbps
bandwidth. Find the throughput if the system(all stations
together)produces
a. 1000 frames per second?
b. 500 frames per second?
c. 250 frames per second?
Calculate the distance, next hop and form a new routing table for the
given problem using distance vector routing algorithm. Consider
there is a network consisting of 4 routers.The weights are mentioned
on the edges. Weights could be distances or costs or delays.

 Design the HART protocol for a bioreactor monitoring and/or control
system utilizing only non-dedicated user input and information
display devices, a digital controller and software, said system
comprising:
i) at least one diagnostic probe for measuring operating conditions in
a bioreactor;
ii) signal conditioning and communication electronics which supply
operating current and/or voltage to said probe and which convert the Understand &
3. diagnostic signal into a format accessible by 3
iii) a digital controller which directly receives the format converted Apply
signal and transmits it to
iv) software which enables the display device to show the converted
signal, and also to instruct the controller to implement changes in the
operating conditions in the reactor, and
v) a software-based virtual transmitter which substantially replicates
the keyboard, display, menu-tree and response of a physical sensor
transmitter.

i) Show how the address 47:20:1B:2E:08:EE is sent out online.
ii) Define the type of the following destination addresses:
a. 4A:30:10:21:10:1A
b. 47:20:1B:2E:08:ee Understand &
5. c. FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF 5
iii) In the Standard Ethernet with the transmission rate of 10Mbps, Apply
we assume that the length of the medium is 2500m abd the size of the
frame is 512 bits. The propagation speed of a signal in a cable is
normally 2X108m/s.
For simplicity, let us assume that m=4. In this space, we can
have 16 identifiers distributed on the leaves of a binary tree.
Figure shows the case with only eight live nodes and five keys.
As the figure shows, the key k3 is stored in N3 because 3+3=0.
Although the key k7 looks numerically equidistant from N6 and
N8,it is stored only in N6 because 6+7=1 but 6+8=14. Another Understand &
6. 5
interesting point is that the key k12 is numerically closer to Apply
N11,but it is stored in N15 because 11+12=7,but 15+12=3.
