A Secondary Study Examining the Effectiveness of Network Topologies: The Case of Ring, Bus, and Star Topologies

Abstract

Topologies arise from the practice of design development. Notably, network topologies refer to the manner in which nodes are connect to foster an interaction. Specifically, topologies constitute network structures that define the process through which nodes communicate. This paper focuses on the bus, ring, and star topologies, examining their performance strengths and demerits.
