The OSI Model

In this project, the goal will be to conceptualize the OSI Model. Through the use of Diagrams, Writing, and Models$/$Pictures$,$ show the

mechanics of the model. Create a short message $($a simple word or phrase even$),$ and demonstrate its journey through the OSI model. You

may create any amount of data to model your system. You may choose to draw with pencil$/$paper$,$ or use an online diagram$/$charting program,

or anything else you can think of$,$ as long as you're not just copying and pasting content of an entire model found online. You may use pictures

that you find online of a singular concept, as long as you explain those pictures in your own words, and of course, GIVE CREDIT! Utilizing

real$-$world technologies or examples to illustrate your point, is impressive, but not required as long as you're modeling the concept. You will be

graded on the following criteria:

Representation of Each Layer: Each layer should be represented. There are $7$ Layers within the OSI model, and you should be explaining

the mechanics of each of them. The explanations need not be overly long or drawn out, as long as you are demonstrating complete

knowledge of each mechanic.

Data Modeling: Does your method make sense? For instance, as you encode a specific message, would a model that I make represent your

data in the same, or similar way? Part of this is abstraction$,$ so I$\text{'}$m not looking for perfection, but if I was explaining this to someone at a high

level using your data, it should more or less make sense.

Presentation: Your models and explanation should be in a format that aids in understanding your point. Visual aids, such as pictures and

diagrams help, especially if they're colorized, and not overly complex.
