What if I already have a device that is not integrated into my computer?

If you are trying to access a wireless access point at your school, then you can use the wireless card that is integrated in your computer if you have one. Otherwise, you may need to buy a dongle, or hook it up via an ethernet cable. Computers tend to have different personalities, and you need to pick one out yourself that will complement your style of work. If you do a lot of typing, you may invest in a computer with a very good keyboard. If you are doing math or accounting work, you should invest in a computer with a numpad on it. If you are running high-CPU using programs, you may want a higher end processor. It all runs down to what you are going to use it for.

Differences between TCP and UDP?

# TCP(Transmission Control Protocol). TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, a connection can be made from client to server, and from then on any data can be sent along that connection. #* Reliable - when you send a message along a TCP socket, you know it will get there unless the connection fails completely. If it gets lost along the way, the server will re-request the lost part. This means complete integrity, things don't get corrupted. #* Ordered - if you send two messages along a connection, one after the other, you know the first message will get there first. You don't have to worry about data arriving in the wrong order. #* Heavyweight - when the low level parts of the TCP "stream" arrive in the wrong order, resend requests have to be sent, and all the out of sequence parts have to be put back together, so requires a bit of work to piece together. # UDP(User Datagram Protocol). A simpler message-based connectionless protocol. With UDP you send messages(packets) across the network in chunks. #* Unreliable - When you send a message, you don't know if it'll get there, it could get lost on the way. #* Not ordered - If you send two messages out, you don't know what order they'll arrive in. #* Lightweight - No ordering of messages, no tracking connections, etc. It's just fire and forget! This means it's a lot quicker, and the network card / OS have to do very little work to translate the data back from the packets.

What is smp environment?

SMP stands for Symmetric MultiProcessing, and it refers to having multiple processors (or cores) in a single computer.

Most modern computers are coming with dual core processors, which essentially means there are two processors on one chip.

This allows the computer to do more than one thing at a time. In single processing environments, the computer can really only do one thing at a time, but it will have a queue of many things that need to get done, and it will switch between them, to give the illusion of doing more than one thing at a time. So, if you have 2 cores, then the computer can do 2 things at a time, and it will switch between the items in the queue, while working on two things at once.

It seems that new advancements in chip technology are focusing on getting more cores on a chip, rather than making the processor faster. Then end result is the same, though: your computer and applications are more responsive.
