communicate successfully. IEEE 802.11 is a set of standards for implementing wireless local area network (WLAN) computer communication in the 2.4‚ 3.6‚ 5 and 60 GHz frequency bands. They are created and maintained by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802). The base version of the standard was released in 1997 and has had subsequent amendments. These standards provide the basis for wireless network products using the Wi-Fi brand. The most prevalent is 802.11b. Equipment using

Classful vs Classless Routing v1.10 – Aaron Balchunas 1 - Classful vs. Classless Routing Classful vs Classless routing protocols Classful routing protocols do not send subnet mask information with their routing updates. A router running a classful routing protocol will react in one of two ways when receiving a route: • If the router has a directly connected interface belonging to the same major network‚ it will apply the same subnet mask as that interface. • If the router does not have any

Results Properties of social networks Mean network size was 80.67 (SD = 39.84‚ Mdn = 75)‚ with a range of 10–279 (Figure 1). The shape of the distribution is similar to that found in other studies of social networks (Bernard et al.‚ 1990; Hill & Dunbar‚ 2003). The size of the kin and friend networks is given in Table 1.
