Foundations of Information
1. To log on to a website such as Gmail or Yahoo!, you need to specify your login name and password. The site does not allow you to access your e-mail messages if the information provided is incorrect. At times you do not remember the password for a particular site and have to repeatedly guess the right password and type it, wasting valuable time.
What are some of the ideas that you use for generating passwords for your own use? What do you believe are good aspects about this method and what do you think are issues with this method? Be careful not to share any of your own personal passwords.
2. The Internet is based on the client/server architecture, which is the most widely used system architecture. Another system architecture called the peer-to-peer architecture can be used on a LAN. Research peer-to-peer architecture and compare it with client/server architecture. Share examples along with positives and negatives for the uses of either architecture and how it can affect outcomes or results from the infrastructure.
