In this discussion board, we are going to discuss the class activity 2 (Ring Topology). I have created a table in my provided solution that explains how the token is moving from node to node in a circular direction and adding time depending on if it has data or not. Your job is to pick any three cell randomly and explain how did you get the time value from the previous cell and how did you get the value for the next cell.

Example: If I choose the number 23 (cell: row 4, col 3), it is 23 because the previous cell's value (row 3, col 3) was 18 and PC2 contained data, therefore we add 5s to make it 23. 25 is the subsequent value (Cell: row 5, col 3). The reason it is 25 is because PC3 had no data at time 23 (or earlier), so we added the customary 2 seconds to transfer the token to PC4, the following node.

Deriving the answer Serving (add 5 seconds when serving)
