Question

Consider the scenario introduced in the previous problem. Now suppose that the link is shared by Bob with four other users. Bob uses parallel instances of non-persistent HTTP, and the other four users use non-persistent HTTP with- out parallel downloads.

a. Do Bob’s parallel connections help him get Web pages more quickly? Why or why not?

b. If all five users open five parallel instances of non-persistent HTTP, then would Bob’s parallel connections still be beneficial? Why or why not?

Answer

Given data in the question:

Suppose that the link is shared by Bob with four other users. Bob uses parallel instances of non-persistent HTTP, and the other four users use non-persistent HTTP with- out parallel downloads.

a) Yes, Bob’s parallel connections help him get Web pages more quickly.

  • The reason is that, the Bob shared total band with to four other users.
  • So, Bob uses parallel instances of non-continual HTTP and other four customers are used non-persistent HTTP without parallel downloads.

b)  Yes, If all five users open five parallel instances of non-persistent HTTP, then would Bob’s parallel connections still be beneficial.

  • The reason is that, every customer gets equal size of band width due to Bob does not parallel connenction.
