WEB APPLICATION : Networking Fundamentals

Network: A computer network is a collection of computers and other hardware components interconnected
by communication channels (cables or satellites) that allow sharing of resources and information.

Networks are designed using the following architecture:

Peer to peer (P2P): Networkn which all computers have an equal status are called peer to peer networks.
Generally in such a network each terminal has an equally competent CPU.

Client-Server: Networks, in which certain computers have special dedicated tasks, providing services to
other computers (in the network) are called client server networks. The computer(s) which provide services
are called servers and the ones that use these services are called clients.

Types of Network:

There are 2 major types of network:-


1) LAN:- LAN is Local Area Network. It is used to connect computers and devices within a small
geographical area such as home, school etc.

2) WAN:- WAN is Wide Area Network. It is used to connect computers in a broad area such as national and
international boundaries.
Eg. Internet.

Internet: Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet
protocol suite to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of
private, public, academic, business, and government networks.

World Wide Web: World Wide Web (abbreviated as WWW or W3, commonly known as the Web), is a
system of interlinked hypertext documents accessed via the Internet.

Web Browser: A Web Browser is software used to view Web sites and acts as an interface between the user
and the World Wide Web.
Web Server: A Web server is a computer that stores web sites and their related files for viewing on the
Internet.

Uses of Network:-
1) Data Sharing: We can share data like text files, documents, audio and video files to other users with the
help of Networking.
2) Hardware Sharing: Hardware components like printers, scanners etc. can also be shared with the help of
networking.
3) Internet Access Sharing: Through networking we can access a single internet connection on multiple
computers within a network.
4) Usage of Network Based Applications: Applications like chat applications, audio and video calling is an
another advantage.

Getting Access to the Internet:-


To use Internet we need the following:-
1) ISP:- ISP is Internet Service Provider. It is an organization which provides us with the access of Internet.
For eg. BSNL, Airtel, MTNL etc.
2) Modem:- The word modem is derived from its function Modulator/DEModulator. It is a device which is
used to convert digital computer signals into analog signals and vice-versa.

Types of Internet Connectivity


Types of Internet Connectivity can be broadly categorized into Wired Technology and Wireless Technology.

Wired Technology:-
1) Dial-up:- It uses the facilities of the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to establish a internet
connection via telephone lines using a device called MODEM. Users dial a number and get access to
internet. Dial-up connections are extremely slow.
2) DSL:- DSL is Digital Subscriber Line provides internet connectivity by transmitting digital data over wires
of a local telephone network. It enables the use of Telephone and Data Transmission on a single telephone
line. For using DSL Connection, we need a DSL modem and a subscription.
3) Cable Internet Access:- It is a form of broadband Internet access that uses the cable TV infrastructure. It is
provided through existing cable TV networks and it is similar to DSL.

Wireless Technology:-
1) 3G:- 3G, is short for 3rd Generation. It is a set of standards used for Mobile devices and mobile
telecommunication services and networks. If the phone supports 3G, then high speed internet connectivity
can be accessed through its subscription.
High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) is a 3G protocol (standard) that allows higher data transfer
speeds and capacity.
2) WiMAX:- WiMAX is Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access is a wireless communications
standard designed to provide mobile broadband connectivity across cities and countries through variety of
devices. It is a long range system. It is beneficial where there is a difficulty in laying out cables and wires.
3) Wi-Fi:- It is a popular technology used to transfer data wirelessly over a network. Wi-Fi stands for Wireless
Fidelity. The wireless network is formed through a device called Wireless Access Point (WAP). It is
beneficial as there is no need of laying out wires for transferring data.

Data Transfer On the Internet :-


· The data is broken up into bits of same sized pieces called packets.
· A header is added to each packet explaining where the data has come from, where it should end up and
where it fits in with the rest of the packets.
· Each packet is sent from computer to computer until it finds its destination. All packets may not take the
same route.
· At the destination, the packets are examined. If any packets are missing or damaged, a message is sent
asking for them to be resent. This continues until all packets have been received intact.
· The packets are now reassembled into their original form. All this done in seconds!

Session 3 : INTRODUCTION TO THE INSTANT MESSAGING

· Do a thorough spell check across all slides
· Perform a manual spell check for terms that is not included during the standard spell check.
· Remove irrelevant content such as images or cliparts, terms, etc. if they are not required.
Tips to make an effective presentation:-
1. Know your topic – Do the research first and know your material, think through what and how you will
present the matter before making a presentation.
2. Use Key phrases about your topic – Good presenters use key phrases and include only the most
important information. Highlight key points that are necessary for the audience to remember. Keep the
points as short as possible.
3. Avoid too much text on each slide – Do not write whole speech on the slides. The slide show is meant to
accompany your oral presentation. Summarize the content as bullet points.
4. Limit the number of slides – Too many slides in a presentation may cause you to rush to get through
them and your audience will pay more attention to the changing slide than to what you are saying. On
average, one slide per minute is about right in a classroom presentation.
5. Plan the layout of your slide – Make your slide easy to follow. Put the title at the top. Phrases should
read left to right and top to bottom. Keep important information near the top of the slide.
6. Avoid fancy fonts – Make sure the fonts, design and colors are consistent throughout the presentation.
Don’t use different styles for each slide. Use fonts that are readable. Do not use all capital letters as it may
be difficult to read.
7. Use contrasting colors of text and background - Use reasonable mix of text color and background.
Dark text on a light background is usually the best as this combination offers the maximum visibility.
8. Use a slide design template to keep your presentation look consistent – Always use a single
background on all slides, do not use multiple backgrounds. Use a pleasant template or style set as it will
attract the audience and they will not lose their focus.
9. Use animations and transitions sparingly – Always use animations and transitions in a limited amount.
As using this feature in every piece and every place can be very distracting for the audience.
10. Also, always review the presentation 2 – 3 times before making a presentation – This can help in
reducing or eliminating any errors in it. Remove irrelevant points during the review, add or remove images
during review. Make necessary corrections before presenting it to a larger audience.

UNIT – 7
Database Development

Database – A database is an organized collection of data. For example:- In a stationary shop, detailed
records of the materials available in the shop is database. Similarly in a computerized system, we need to
maintain several files, we would used database programs such as Microsoft Access, OpenOffice.org Base,
and MySQL. These database programs are used to organize the data as per our needs in the computer
system.

Database Management System (DBMS) - A database management system is a software package with
computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance and use of a database. A DBMS allows different
user application programs to concurrently access the same database. Some of the DBMSs are Oracle, IBM
DB2, Microsoft SQL server, Microsoft Access, PostgreSQL, MySQL, FoxPro and SQLite.

Data can be organized into two types:-


Flat File: Data is stored in a single table. Usually suitable for less amount of data.
Relational: Data is stored in multiple tables and the tables are linked using a common field. Relational is
suitable for medium to large amount of data.

Database Servers – Database servers are dedicated computers that hold the actual databases and run only
the DBMS and related software. Databases on the database servers are accessed through command line or
graphic user interface tools referred to as Frontends; database servers are referred to as Back-ends. Such
type of data access is referred to as Client-server model.
RDBMS:- A relational database management system (RDBMS) is a database management system that is
based on the relational model. In the relational model of a database, all data is represented in terms of tuples
(rows), grouped into relations (tables). A database organized in terms the relational model is a relational
database.
Database Concepts:- Database contains objects that are used for storing and managing information.
1. Item : - Item is about which information is stored in the database.
2. Field:- Each question that we ask about our item is a Field.
3. Record:- Record is a set of information (made up of fields) stored in your database about one of the
items.
4. Value:- Value is the actual text or numerical amount or date that you put in while adding information to
your database.

For example,
Database :- Employee
Emp_Cod Emp_Nam Emp_Addres Emp_Designatio Emp_ContactN Emp_Salar
e e s n o y
E001 ABC Meerut Manager 9876543210 Rs. 50,000

Item : Employee
Field : Emp_Code , Emp_Name , Emp_Address , Emp_Designation , Emp_ContactNo , Emp_Salary
Record :
E001 ABC Meerut Manager 9876543210 Rs. 50,000
Value : E001 , ABC , Meerut , Manager , 9876543210 , Rs. 50,000

5. Key Field :- Key Field is a value in a Field that uniquely identifies the record. Eg. E001 which is unique
to every employee.
Important Question :- How data is organized in a RDBMS ?
Ans :- In RDBMS, data is organized in the form of inter linked tables.
SESSION 2:- DATA STORAGE

TABLE :- A table is a set of data elements that is organized using a model of vertical columns and
horizontal rows. Each row is identified by a unique key index or the key field.

COLUMNS OR FIELD :- A column is a set of data values of a particular simple type, one for each row of
the table. For eg. Emp_Code , Emp_Name , Emp_Address etc.
ROWS OR RECORDS OR TUPLES :- A row represents a single, data items in a table. Each row in a
table represents a set of related data, and every row in the table has the same structure.

DATA TYPES :- Datatypes are used to identify the type of data we are going to store in the database.

Categories of data types:- Data types can be broadly classified into five categories:-
1. Numeric Types
2. Alphanumeric Types
3. Binary Types
4. Date Time
5. Other variable Types

NUMERIC TYPES:- They are used for describing numeric values like mobile number, age, etc.

The different types of numeric data types available are-


1. Boolean (Yes / No) 6. Numeric
2. TinyInt (Tiny Integer) 7. Decimal
3. SmallInt (Small Integer) 8. Real
4. Integer 9. Float
5. BigInt (Big Integer) 10. Double

ALPHANUMERIC TYPES:-
The list of different datatypes available in alphanumeric types are :-
1. LongVarChar (Memo) (Long Text)
2. Char (Text-fix) (Small Text)
3. VarChar (Text) (Text of specified Length)
4. VarChar_IgnoreCase (Text) (Comparisions are not case sensitive)

BINARY TYPES:-
Binary types are used for storing data in binary formats. It can be used for storing photos, music files or (in
general file of any format) etc.
The list of different datatypes available in Binary types are :-
1. LongVarBinary (Image)
2. Binary (Binary (fix) )
3. VarBinary (Binary)

DATE TIME:-
Date time data types are used for describing date and time values for the field used in the table of a database.
It can be used for storing information such as date of birth, date of admission etc.
The list of different data types available in Date Time type are :-
1. Date (Stores month, day and year information)
2. Time (Store hour , minute and second information)
3. Timestamp (Stores date and time information)

PRIMARY KEY:- A primary key is a unique value that identifies a row in a table. These keys are also
indexed in the database, making it faster for the database to search a record.

FOREIGN KEY:- The foreign key identifies a column or set of columns in one (referencing) table that
refers to a column or set of columns in another (referenced) table.

Note:- The “one” side of a relation is always the parent, and provides the PK(Primary Key) Attributes to be
copied. The “many” side of a relation is always the child, into which the FK(Foreign Key) attributes are
copied.

Memorize it : one, parent, PK (Primary Key) ; many, child , FK (Foreign Key)

SESSION 3
MANIPULATING DATA

In a database we can define the structure of the data and manipulate the data using some commands.

There are two types of languages:-


1. DDL (Data Definition Language)
2. DML (Data Manipulation Language)
DATA DEFINITION / DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE:- It is a standard for commands that define the
different structures in a database. DDL statements create,modify and remove database objects such as tables,
indexes and users.

Common DDL Statements are:-


1. Create :- Used to create database objects.
2. Alter :- Used to modify database objects.
3. Drop :- Used to delete database objects.
DATA MANIPULATION LANGUAGE:- It is a standard for commands that enables users to access and
manipulate data in a database.

Common DML Statements are:-


1. SELECT :- Used for retrieval of information from the database.
2. INSERT :- Used for insertion of new information into the database.
3. DELETE :- Used for deletion of information in the database.
4. UPDATE :- Used for modification of information in the database.

Types of DML:-
1.Procedural:- The user specifies what data is needed and how to get it.
2. Non Procedural :- The user only specifies what data is needed.
Note:- A popular data manipulation language is SQL (Structured Query Language.)
