第 1 页 共 59 页计算机网络(第四版 ) 习题答案第 2 页 共 59 页第 1 章 概述1-3 The performance of a client-server system is influenced by two network factors: the bandwidth of the network (how many bits/sec it can transport) and the latency (how many seconds it takes for the first bit to get from the client to the server)
Give an example of a network that exhibits high bandwidth and high latency
Then give an example of one with low bandwidth and low latency
客户-服务器系统的性能会受到两个网络因素的影响:网络的带宽(每秒可以传输多少位数据)和延迟(将第一个数据位从客户端传送到服务器端需要多少秒时间)
请给出一个网络的例子,它具有高带宽和高延迟
然后再给出另一个网络的例子,它具有低带宽和低延迟
答:横贯大陆的光纤连接可以有很多千兆位 /秒带宽, 但是由于光速度传送要越过数千公里,时延将也高
相反,使用 56 kbps调制解调器呼叫在同一大楼内的计算机则有低带宽和较低的时延
1-4 Besides bandwidth and latency, what other parameter is needed to give a good characterization of the quality of service offered by a network used f
