 Introduction
Data communication refers to the transmission of this digital data between two or more
computers and a computer network or data network is a telecommunication not work that
allows comporters to exchange data. The physical connection both notip or ked computing
devices is established using either cable media or wireless modia. A network of networks is
called an internetwork, or simply the internet. It is the largest network in existence on this
planet.The internet hugely connects all WANs and it can have connection to LANs and Home
networks. Internet uses TCP/IP protocol suite and uses IP as its addressing protocol. Present
day, Internet is widely implemented using IPv4. Because of shortage of address spaces, it is
gradually migrating from IPv4 to IPv6. A system of interconnected computers and
computerized peripherals such as printers is called computer network. This interconnection
among computers facilitates information sharing among them. Computers may connect to each
other by either wired or wireless media.
Objective of Data Communication & Computer
Network
The main objective of data communication & computer network is to enable seamless exchange of
data between any two points in the world. This exchange of data takes place over a computer
network. Data refers to the raw facts that are collected while information refers to processed data
that enables us to take decisions. Resource sharing is the main objective of the computer network.
The goal is to provide all the program, date and hardware is available to everyone on the network
without regard to the physical location of the resource and the users. The second objective is to
provide the high Reliability. It is achieved by replicating the files on two or more machines, so in
case of unavailability (due to fail of hardware) the other copies can be used. Computer organization
has helped organization in saving money. This is due to the fact that the small computer has much
better price to the performance ratio comparison than the large computer like mainframe.
Mainframe computer are approximately ten times faster that the microcomputers, but they cost
thousands times more. As a result of this imbalance, organization has preferred to install
interconnected microcomputer connected to the mainframe computer.
Data Communication and Computer Network Conceptions
will be helpful for accomplishing a trustworthy Data
communication in a real time industries

Data communications and networking are changing the way we do business and the waywe
live.Business decisions have to be made ever more quickly, and the decision makers require
immediate access to accurate information. Why wait a week for that report from Germany to arrive by
mail when it could appear almost instantaneously through computer networks? Businesses today rely
on computer networks and internetworks. But before we ask how quickly we can get hooked up, we
need to know how networks operate, what types of technologies are available, and which design best
fills which set of needs. he development of the personal computer brought about tremendous changes
for business, industry, science, and education. A similar revolution is occurring in data
communications and networking. Technological advances are making it possible for communications
links to carry more and faster signals. As a result, services are evolving to allow use of this expanded
capacity.
