14. Experiment and Results
Result 1
Comparison of image fetching over coaxial cable and over the air. As the result,
image fetching and downloading using coaxial cable is relatively stable

15. Result 2
Experiment and Results
Hadoop distributed servers took approximately 3 times slower to save images
comparing to single server.
