Networking of computers mean interconnection of two or more computers or computer peripherals, which are joined by some type of communication media.
Advantages Of networking
- Sharing of data – Computers if networked, can share data amongst themselves.
- Sharing of peripherals – Computers can also share expensive peripherals like printers, scanners, etc.
- High communication speed– Sometimes inter office mail takes long time for receipts, but in case of a computer, the communication speed is very high and data reaches the destination quickly.
- High communication accuracy – Data transmitted does not get lost and no ambiguous messages are taken by the message from others. Messages are more easily composed, edited and saved for future use.
- Interactive data transfer – Data can be transmitted in interactive format, for which various media (sound, animation, video, etc.) are used.
- Lower cost – Data transmission being fast and accurate is cheaper than a fax.
