Ask Custom Question

A data link layer runs a sliding window protocol. A transmits using a sending window size of 6 and B receives using a receiving window size of 1. We assume that A always has traffic to send and that B sends Acks only. The channel delay is large enough that A transmits 6 frames before receiving any acknowledgements from B. A begins transmitting with sequence number 0 using a 3-bit sequence number. Suppose that the frame with sequence number 4 is lost once and no other errors occur. Write down (in order) the sequence numbers of all frames that A transmits until B successfully receives the 10th frame that it passes to the network layer. Please explain all work.

  • " In question 2, you incorrectly add in the $3.00 dividend that was just paid to determine the value of the stock price using the dividend discount model. In question 4 response, it should have also been recognized that dividend discount models are not useful if any of the parameters used in the model are inaccurate. "
