Question

computers that can talk to any other computers on their network belong to what?

a decentralized network
a distributed network
a packet switching system
a time sharing system

Explanation:

• A decentralized network allows computers to communicate directly with each other without a central authority.
• A distributed network also enables computers to interact and share resources across the network.
• A packet - switching system is about how data is transmitted (in packets), not the network structure for communication.
• A time - sharing system is about sharing computer resources (like CPU time) among multiple users, not network - wide computer communication.

Answer:

a distributed network
