There are number of ways to improve communication for individuals for example prioritizing the traffic for that user, Vlans,VTP,QOS, and using high speed media ect:-
You can find a computer communication program online at the MSN and CNET websites. Examples of computer communication programs include Skype, MirandaIM, ICQ, AIM and QQ.
The Native Computer Communications Network Project was a good example of how a focus on creating a network of computers does not necessarily ensure the interpersonal networking of the potential users of that technology. If the people were not communicating with each other before, developing another method of communication doesn't mean they'll start.
Network Interface Card(NIC)
A network card (aka. network adapter, network interface card, NIC, etc.) is a piece of computer hardware designed to provide for computer communication over a computer network.
A network card is a small circuit board inside the computer, which allows the computer to communicate with others that are on the network. A modem is a communication device that uses the already-existing telephone network to facilitate computer communication.
A router can improve network security if it includes the use of NAT (network address translation) and/or a firewall.
LAN
Basically the entire computer is the communication system. If the question is more specifically how the computer communicates w/ the interwebs.. your answer would be the network adapter. For example, wireless adapter, network card, or USB supported network driver for for a direct connect w/ a broadband device.
There is no single individual responsible for the development of a network, just as there isn't one single individual responsible for the development of the computer.
May be it is local communication and remote communication but dont forget to reply me that it is right or wrong: - Jagruti
Yes. A cluster is a group of computers connected by a local network to a central server which facilitates communication and issues work to each individual computer.
Net is short for network & com or comm is short for communication.
