11 Study notes and exam tips
- Learn the definition of a network as "linking two or more computers to exchange messages and share devices" — the examiner looks for both parts.
- In the Internet/Intranet comparison write public-and-open versus private-and-closed, then give one example of each.
- IoT answers should pair a benefit with a risk; assistive technology for people of determination is the expected application.
- Cloud computing is defined by access over the Internet without heavy local hardware, not by "a very big hard disk".
- Transmission media: fibre = light signals and interference immunity; Ethernet = cheap and short range; wireless = mobility and difficult terrain.
