Metropolitan area networks (MAN). Computer and Network Examples
A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a large computer network on the large geographical area that include several buildings or even the entire city (metropolis). The geographical area of the MAN is larger than LAN, but smaller than WAN. MAN includes many communicating devices and provides the Internet connectivity for the LANs in the metropolitan area.
MAN is used to combine into a network group located in different buildings into a single network. The diameter of such a network can range from 5 to 50 kilometers. As a rule, MAN does not belong to any particular organization, in most cases, a group of users or a provider who takes charge for the service own its connecting elements and other equipment. Level of service is agreed in advance and some warranties are discussed. MAN often acts as a high-speed network to allow sharing regional resources (like a big LAN). It is also often used to provide public available connection to other networks using a WAN connection. There are many ways of classifying networks. The main criterion for classification is considering the administration method. That is, depending on how the network is organized and how it is controlled, it can be attributed to local or distributed, metropolitan or WAN. or her A network administrator manages a network or it’s segment. Administration team activities are logged, and their rights and responsibilities are strictly divided if the network is complex. Computers can be connected using a variety of media access controllers: a twisted pair, optical conductors (optical cables) and via radio (wireless technology). Wired optical connections are usually established via Ethernet, wireless - through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPRS and other protocols. Private LAN may be linked to other local area networks through gateways, as well as being part of a global computer network (eg, the Internet), or have a connection to it.

A pie chart is a circular diagram showing a set of data divided into proportional slices. There are several variations of this chart such as donut chart, exploded pie chart, multi-level pie charts. Although it is not very informative when a ring chart or circle chart has many sections, so choosing a low number of data points is quite important for a useful pie chart.
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with Pie Charts solution helps to create pie and donut charts for effective displaying proportions in statistics, business and mass media for composition comparison, i.e. for visualization of part percentage inside one total.

Working with information can be quite tedious, furthermore, some data can be quite difficult to perceive without any graphic representation. So, to facilitate your work, you can use business diagrams, such as simple flowcharts or Gantt charts for project management and orgcharts for clarifying your company structure. You can use a proper software, like ConceptDraw Pro, draw them on paper, or use whiteboards, but it is more convenient to use a digital tool.
This diagram shows a cross-functional flowchart that was made fore telecom service provider. A workflow of a common telecommunication service provider has a rather branched structure. Thus, it is useful to have a flow chart to visualize the sequences and interrelations of the work flow steps. Business process flowchart contains 17 processes and 4 decision points,that are distributed through 2 lines depicting the participants involved. Also there are connectors that show the data flow within processes. This flowchart displays a detailed model of the telecom service trading process, as well as all participants in the process and how they interact with each other.

The CCTV is the process that carried out using the video cameras for transmitting the signal to the specific location, on the limited set of monitors. We are talking about the video cameras that are used for monitoring on such guarded objects as airports, banks, stores, military objects, etc. CCTV equipment is also used in the industrial installations, for surveillance in the public places, for recording the video on the digital video recorders.
