We all prefer graphics, images or any other type of visual representation over plain text.
Plain text is no fun and cannot retain our attention for a long span of time. Sometimes, it is difficult to understand as well. So, it is obvious that it is beneficial to use diagrams to showcase complex relationships or structures.
And, one of them is a network diagram.
It not only helps everyone on the team understand the structures, networks and processes; it also comes handy in project management, maintenance of network structures, debugging etc.
Network diagrams demonstrate how a network works. This network diagram guide will teach you everything you need to know, from what is a network diagram to its symbols and how to make it.
Creately offers simple tools to draw network diagrams or one can simply select an existing template.
In just three pages, a Russian mathematician has presented a better way to color certain types of networks than many experts thought possible.
A paper posted online last month has disproved a 53-year-old conjecture about the best way to assign colors to the nodes of a network. The paper shows, in a mere three pages, that there are better ways to color certain networks than many mathematicians had supposed possible.
Network coloring problems, which were inspired by the question of how to color maps so that adjoining countries are different colors, have been a focus of study among mathematicians for nearly 200 years. The goal is to figure out how to color the nodes of some network (or graph, as mathematicians call them) so that no two connected nodes share the same color. Depending on the context, such a coloring can provide an effective way to seat guests at a wedding, schedule factory tasks for different time slots, or even solve a sudoku puzzle.
Graph coloring problems tend to be simple to state, but they are often enormously hard to solve. Even the question that launched the field — Do four colors suffice to color any map? — took more than a century to answer (the answer is yes, in case you were wondering).
The problem tackled in the new paper seemed, until now, to be no exception to this rule. Unsolved for more than 50 years, it concerns tensor products — graphs made by combining two different graphs (call them G and H) in a specific way. The tensor product of G and H is a new, larger graph in which each node represents a pair of nodes from the original graphs — one from G and one from H — and two nodes in the tensor product are connected if both their corresponding nodes in G and their corresponding nodes in H are connected.
Draw a network diagram using the guidelines attached in these PowerPoint slides. After you get your diagram built, then at each node on the network write about how an attacker can attack that piece of equipment and what damage it could cause to the network (how serious it is or could be). You’ll have a paragraph or two for each of these pieces of equipment:

Behold, a network diagram accounting for slack in the system and critical pathing. I spent an hour on this so SOMEONE is gonna look at it. Look at this stupid thing.
