1G = 109, 1M = 106, 1K = 103, 1B = 1 Byte = 8 bits, 1b = 1 bit. Msec is millisec which is 0.001.
Delays
Types of delays: processing, queue, transmission, propagation.
dnodal = dproc + dqueue + dtrans + dprop
Dial-up networks have high transmission delays, while satellite connections have high propagation delays.
Processing Delay
