    A website is a collection of web pages accessible via a unique domain name on the Internet. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a standardized address used to identify resources on the Internet. In networking, a protocol is a set of rules that govern communication between devices, while a frame is a unit of data transmitted between two devices over a network connection. Middleware provides a bridge between different internet applications or systems, sitting between the operating system and applications to enable communication and data exchange.

    1. a).

    define website
    A website is a collection of web pages and related content that is accessible via a unique domain name on
    the Internet.

    b) define uniform resource locator


    A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a standardized address used to identify resources on the Internet.

    c). define protocol as used in internet


    In the context of the internet, a protocol is a set of rules that govern the communication between devices
    or systems.

    d). define frame as used in networking models


    In networking models, a frame is a unit of data that is transmitted between two devices over a physical or
    logical network connection. Frames are used in data link layer of the OSI (Open Systems
    Interconnection) networking model, which is responsible for transmitting data between adjacent nodes on
    a network.

    e). define middleware as used in internet applications


    In the context of internet applications, middleware is software that provides a bridge between different
    software applications or systems. It is a layer of software that sits between the operating system and the
    application, providing a common interface for communication and data exchange.

    2. outline the difference between


    i. client server model and peer to peer model
    main difference between the client-server model and the peer-to-peer model is that the
    client-server model is centralized and hierarchical, while the peer-to-peer model is
    decentralized and egalitarian.
    ii. outline the difference between a stub and skeleton
    Stubs are client-side proxies responsible for forwarding method invocations to the remote
    server, while skeletons are server-side proxies responsible for receiving method
    invocations from the remote client.
    iii. outline the difference between TCP/IP and OSI reference mode
    TCP/IP Model is a communication protocols suite using which network devices can be
    connected to the Internet. On the other hand, the OSI Model is a conceptual framework
    using which the functioning of a network can be described.
    iv. differentiate between optic fiber and copper media in data communication

    Optic fiber and copper media are two types of communication channels used for data
    transmission. Here are some key differences between the two:

    1. Physical Composition: Copper media is made of copper wires, whereas optic fiber is
    made of thin glass or plastic fibers.
    using a suitable diagram, describe the architecture of the internet network and explain the role of the
    following: core server, backbone network provider, POP, Content service provider
    Core Server: This is a server located at the center of the internet network. It is responsible for routing
    data between different networks and ensuring that data gets to its intended destination.
    Backbone Network: This is a high-speed network that connects multiple regional networks together.
    Backbone network providers are responsible for maintaining and upgrading this network.
    Point of Presence (POP): This is a location where an ISP has equipment that connects its access
    network to the internet backbone. ISPs may have multiple POPs in different regions to ensure that data
    can be transmitted quickly and efficiently.
    Content Service Provider: This is a company that provides content or services over the internet, such as
    a search engine or streaming video service. These companies often have their own servers that are
    connected to the internet backbone.

    1. Data Link Layer: This layer is responsible for transferring data between adjacent network nodes
    and handling errors that may occur during transmission. Protocols used in this layer include
    Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC), and the Media Access
    Control (MAC) protocol used by Ethernet.
    2. Transport Layer: This layer is responsible for ensuring that data is delivered reliably and
    accurately between two endpoints. Protocols used in this layer include Transmission Control
    Protocol (TCP), User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and Stream Control Transmission Protocol
    (SCTP).

    3. Presentation Layer: This layer is responsible for data formatting and translation, so that data
    can be presented in a format that is readable by the receiving device. Protocols used in this layer
    include ASCII and Unicode.

    4. Application Layer: This layer is responsible for providing specific services or applications to the
    user, such as email, web browsing, or file transfer. Protocols used in this layer include HTTP,
    FTP, and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
