Applications of Networks

Networks are designed to serve. They are used for practical purposes in the following fields:

  1. Healthcare: Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Pathological Laboratories use Computer Networks to meet health requirements of the people. The healthcare professionals and assistants closely cooperate for a healthy society. The professionals and assistants come together using Networks. It can be said that Networks keep the healthcare units in functional state.




  1. Educational Institutions: These institutions use Networks for many purposes. Student admissions, teaching work, laboratory work, and project report generation are possible using Networks. Teachers refer to online tutorials and their valued classroom  sessions are admired by the student community. 


  1. Government Agencies: Government programmes work at different levels. The lower level activities are reported to high ranking officers. These reports are carefully studied. After making the study at the officers' level fresh instructions are given.This kind of exchange of reports cannot be possible without Networks. 

  2. Banks: Banks operate quickly and fast. No long queues. No worries. Networks help Bank employees to verify the customer details. 

Customer information is verified using Computers. These Computers are linked to Networks. 

ATM machines operate at the Banks. These ATMs use Networks.

  1. Online Stores: The world has changed and so has our requirements. Using Networks we can sell and buy things online. Online sale and purchase is becoming common these days. Big online stores use advanced Network technologies. Now, people are able to shop from their homes.

Interface Message Processor ( IMP )

Interface Message Processor ( IMP ) is a special purpose Computer. The Processor plays a vital role in Host-to-Host communication. IMP is placed between Host Computers.  IMP helps Hosts to exchange information. IMPs ( Interface Message Processors ) form a group. The group dedicates itself towards reliable transmission of Packets. _________________________ Note: An Interface Message Processor can be supposed to have a face. Firstly this supposed face of IMP is in the direction of the first Host, which sends the  message. Secondly, this face is turned towards the other Host.  Now, the IMP,  with its face turned around, communicates with this other Host.  Transformed message from IMP is communicated to this Host. __________________________ Message ( a piece of information ) sent from the Host ( source of information  ) is transformed into Packets. Transformation of the message into Packets is performed by an IMP. These Packets are forwarded to the receiver H...
