võrgstruktuurid

Võrgustruktuurid refers to the organizational structures of networks, encompassing both physical and logical arrangements. In computing, a network topology describes how devices are connected. Common physical topologies include bus, star, ring, and mesh, each with distinct advantages and disadvantages regarding cost, performance, and resilience. A bus topology connects all devices to a single central cable. A star topology connects all devices to a central hub or switch. A ring topology connects devices in a closed loop. A mesh topology connects every device to every other device, offering high redundancy but at a high cost.

Logical topologies, on the other hand, describe how data flows through the network, regardless of the physical connections. Ethernet, for example, is a common logical topology. The choice of network structure significantly impacts a network's efficiency, scalability, and reliability. Organizations select specific võrgustruktuurid based on their needs for communication, data sharing, and resource access. Emerging technologies and increasing data demands continue to drive the evolution of network structures, leading to more complex and adaptable designs. The concept extends beyond computing to describe social networks, biological systems, and other interconnected entities, highlighting the fundamental principles of how components interact within a system.
