Question: Too much message segmentation is considered harmful, partially due to the overhead cost caused by the header fields. The same amount of header fields has

Too much message segmentation is considered harmful, partially due to the overhead cost caused by the header fields. The same amount of header fields has to be added to each packet, therefore, the more such packets are (i.e. the more message segmentation we perform), the more overhead costs from such header fields will be.

Now, lets assume that everything stays the same as problem 1.b) above except that the size of each packet varies from 4kb to 2kb, to 1kb, to 125bits. In other words, the size of each packet is cut in half (correspondingly, the number of packets gets doubled) as we go on in our experiment.

2a. Assume no overhead caused by the header fields. Write a JAVA program that produces the comparison of size of each packet vs. the end-to-end delay of the transmission of the entire message of 16 kb.

2b. .Assume the overhead caused by the header fields is 10 bits. Redo part a).

2c. Assume the overhead caused by the header fields is 20 bits. Redo part a).

I'm not really looking for a fancy answer. Just simple output through a software like JGRASP or eclipse
