Q155. Which of the following is used to query a relational database management system (RDBMS)?
A. ASP
B. SQL
C. HTML
D. CGI
Answer: B
Explanation: SQL stands for Structured Query Language. It is used for requesting information from a database. It also contains statements for inserting, updating, and administering data and objects in a database. SQL is a non-procedural language. In non-procedural languages, a user instructs a computer to compute the desired result and the language compiler itself decides the best sequence of operations to compute it. Whereas in procedural languages, such as C, a user is required to instruct a computer to perform a sequence of operations on a database for computing the desired result. In 1986, ANSI approved a rudimentary version of SQL as the official standard, but most versions of SQL since then have included many extensions to the ANSI standard. The SQL standard was revised in 1991 by ANSI. Most of the relational database management systems support SQL. Answer: A is incorrect. Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft's open application environment in which HTML pages, scripts, and ActiveX components are combined to create Web-based applications. ASP is used as a server-side scripting language. Answer: C is incorrect. HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is a set of markup symbols or codes used to create Web pages and define formatting specifications. The markup tells the Web browser how to display the content of the Web page. Answer: D is incorrect. The Common Gateway Interface (CGI) specification is used for creating executable programs that run on a Web server. CGI defines the communication link between a Web server and Web applications. It gives a network or Internet resource access to specific programs. For example, when users submit an HTML form on a Web site, CGI is used to pass this information to a remote application for processing, and retrieve the results from the application. It then returns these results to the user by means of an HTML page.

Q158. On which of the following factors does the capacity of an access point depend?Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.
A. Channel reuse
B. Co-location
C. Number of users
D. Software applications
Answer: CD
Explanation: The capacity of an access point is the maximum number of users the access point can service effectively, offering the best performance. The capacity depends on several factors including the following. Software applications in use. Applications that are more bandwidth-intensive reduces the capacity of the access point. Desired throughput or performance and number of users. A large number of bandwidth-intensive application users connected to an access point will cause poor performance. Therefore, limiting the capacity of an access point to a certain number of users will give the connected users the best performance. Answer: A, B are incorrect. The capacity of an access point does not depend on channel reuse or co-location. Channel reuse and co-location is a method of using non-overlapping channels in such a way that the overlapping cells are on different RF channels. Channel reuse is done by mapping out the access points on a floor plan and verifying that the RF cells propagated by the access points do not overlap on the same RF channels. This type of channel plan can be done manually or with site survey software applications. The figure given below shows the co-location of access points with proper channel reuse. In the figure, overlapping areas use different channels to prevent interference.
