The network model is a database model conceived as a flexible way of representing objects and their relationships. Its original inventor was Charles Bachman, and it was developed into a standard specification published in 1969 by the CODASYL Consortium. Where the hierarchical model structures data as a tree of records, with each record having one parent record and many children, the network model allows each record to have multiple parent and child records, forming a lattice structure. The chief argument in favour of the network model, in comparison to the hierarchic model, was that it allowed a more natural modeling of relationships between entities. Although the model was widely implemented and used, it failed to become dominant for two main reasons. Firstly, IBM chose to stick to the hierarchical model with semi-network extensions in their established products such as IMS and DL/I. Secondly, it was eventually displaced by the relational model, which offered a higher-level, more declarative interface. Until the early 1980s the performance benefits of the low-level navigational interfaces offered by hierarchical and network databases were persuasive for many large-scale applications, but as hardware became faster, the extra productivity and flexibility of the relational model led to the gradual obsolescence of the network model in corporate enterprise usage.
Geocentric is that the earth is the center of the universe and heliocentric is the sun is the center of the universe. can it be nothing.
The new PS3 Slim model was released on May 2010 without any difference mentioned from the other model released on November 2009. Both are still in production. see related link The following is quoted from the related link and is available when you click on the model number for any of the 4 new slim models. Functionally, there is no difference between the new PlayStation 3 models and the older models.
As the names imply, the 3G/Wifi Model supports 3G, assuming you have it, whereas the Wifi model only supports standard Wifi.
Both models are used for education purposes, but have different approaches. The Tyler model is scientifically based and asks that teachers develop their own curriculum. The Taba model uses seven distinct steps, and the teachers are supposed to put the steps together for the students.
linear model involves only one way communication that is messages are sent and the receiver only recieves.it is one dimensional. interactional model involves not only mesages sent but also the feedback from the receiver where as in transactional model besides sending messages and giving a feedback we also have non verbal messages.
Hierarchical databases organize data in a tree-like structure with parent-child relationships and a strict one-to-many hierarchy, while network databases use a more flexible model with many-to-many relationships through pointers or links between records. Hierarchical databases are faster for accessing data along predefined paths, while network databases allow for more complex data relationships but can be more complex to manage.
The relational model is a model in which data is isolated by object and foreign keys to those objects which is organized in tables with multiple columns or attributes. The hierarchical model is a model in which the data is organized in a tree structure that allows repeating information using parent/child relationships.
In network model of database , all data is related to each other through a link. By a link we mean that it is an association between precisely two records/data . In hierarchical model records are organized as trees rather than arbitrary graphs.

The hierarchical model is a restricted type of network model. Again, data is represented as collections of records and relationships are represented by sets. However, the hierarchical model allows a node to have only one parent. A hierarchical model can be represented as a tree graph, with records appearing as nodes (also called segments) and sets as edges.
two main early navigational data models were the hierarchical model and the CODASYL model (network model)

Network data model is just like a normal database model. In network model the data is seen as related to each other by links. Or we can say the relation between the data is represented by links.
