Sketch curves for throughput, delay, and power, each as a function of load, for the following networks.

Question:

Sketch curves for throughput, delay, and power, each as a function of load, for the following networks. Throughput is to be measured as a percentage of the maximum. Load is to be measured (somewhat unnaturally) as the number of stations (N ) ready to send at any one time; note that this implies there is always (unless N = 0, which you may ignore) a station ready to send. Assume each station has only one packet to send at a time.

(a) Ethernet. Assume that the average packet size is 5 slot times and that when N stations are trying to transmit, the average delay until one station succeeds is N/2 slot times.

(b) Token ring, with TRT = 0.
