Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
most important, yet most often overlooked, is the number of users. For some networks user number is relatively constant. For others, however, this number can fluctuate dramatically.
The intent of this paper is to perform a network performance analysis in situations where additional users have appeared. The variation which can manifest in user number can be no
better illustrated than with an example involving some event where the number of users increases in response to some sort of disaster. Acts of War or even natural disasters
can present a number of problems for the computer network. Because networks could be one of the most effective means of communication during disaster situations considerable forethought needs to
be devoted as to how to prepare for such events to minimize the problems which might occur. Such forethought would obviously pay off in system efficiency during normal times
as well. One of the most obvious problems which must be addressed in designing systems is how to allow for times of increased usage, whether those times result from
disaster situations or simply peaks in access needs during normal operation. The most effective means to this solution is optimum system design.
The most common element affecting system performance in a network environment during both times of disaster and times of normal usage is hardware configuration. Two of the most critical
elements in the configuration for domain controller are processor speed and RAM. Table 1 (reproduced from Microsoft Corporation, 2002) details some of the common elements in domain sizing and
how those elements relate to capacity planning using a Windows NT server 4.0. Table 1. Domain Sizing and Capacity Planning for Windows NT Server 4.0
