CONTENTS:
1. Brief Introduction to Micro-Project
1)We use switching techniques in computer networks to connect devices and
allow them to communicate with each other.
2)Additionally, we can utilize switching techniques to transfer data from one
device to another.
3)Switching allows multiple devices to share the same communication channel
simultaneously.
2. Aim of the Micro-Project
i. In large networks, there can be multiple paths from sender to
receiver. The switching technique will decide the best route for data
transmission.
ii. Switching technique is used to connect the systems for making one-
to-one communication.

3. Intended Course Outcomes of the Micro-Project
i. As a student in Computer Networking (BSCN) you will gain valuable
skills in computer networks (switching, routing), system and network
administration, computer and network security.
ii. In operating systems, web programming, databases, and project
management.
4. Literature Review
In large networks there might be multiple paths linking sender and receiver.
Information may be switched as it travels through various communication
channels.
Elena (2002), Optical packet networks are networks, where the switching
operations are performed optically, and the data remain in the optical domain
through transmission. There have already been several implementations of optical
packet switching in a laboratory environment, but commercial solutions are not
expected within the few next years. This is due to the infancy of optical devices .
5. Proposed Methodology
We use switching techniques in computer networks to connect devices
and allow them to communicate with each other. Additionally, we can
utilize switching techniques to transfer data from one device to another.
Switching allows multiple devices to share the same communication
channel simultaneously. As a result, it improves the efficiency of the
network. Furthermore, switching also enables the network to route data to
its intended destination. Additionally, it provides a mechanism for error
checking and correction.
There’re three main switching techniques used in computer networks:
circuit switching, packet switching, and message switching.
