What is cloud computing? Write its two advantages.
Cloud computing is term that refers to storing and accessing the data online so that, we can access them from any computer in any location. Its two advantages are:
i) Efficient storage and computing services.
ii) Allows for easy connectivity to servers and information sharing.
Write any 6 different types of wireless media.

Explain ring topology.
In Ring topology, each computer is connected to two other computers in the form of a ring structure. In this topology all data travel in the same direction.
Here each computer has equal access to resources. The major disadvantage of ring topology is that failure of any one computer on a ring can disable the entire network.
