The document discusses the workings of the Internet, emphasizing the differences between packet switching and circuit switching. Packet switching is highlighted for its efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness, while circuit switching is noted for its ordered delivery of packets. Additionally, it includes practical examples such as using the tracert command in Windows to trace routes to websites.

Circuit Switching Packet Switching


Guarantee of Quality Yes No
Ease of Connectivity No Yes
Scalability No Yes

Packet switching is used in the Internet.

Advantage of Packet Switching over Circuit Switching :


 More efficient in terms of bandwidth, since the concept of reserving circuit is not there.
 Minimal transmission latency.
 More reliable as destination can detect the missing packet.
 More fault tolerant because packets may follow different path in case any link is down, Unlike
Circuit Switching.
 Cost effective and comparatively cheaper to implement.

Disadvantage of Packet Switching over Circuit Switching :


 Packet Switching don’t give packets in order, whereas Circuit Switching provides ordered
delivery of packets because all the packets follow the same path.
 Since the packets are unordered, we need to provide sequence numbers to each packet.
 Complexity is more at each node because of the facility to follow multiple path.
 Transmission delay is more because of rerouting.
 Packet Switching is beneficial only for small messages, but for bursty data (large messages)
Circuit Switching is better.

Taobao is mainly C2C. Tmall is B2C. AliExpress’s focus is on individual or small business buyers from abroad,
for whom it is a middleman sourcing goods directly from wholesalers or manufacturers.

Tmall 2.0 will provide a personally customized store experience for the consumer, link the consumer to off-
line outlets, and provide new opportunities for brand narratives, live streaming and other forms of content
distribution.
