Application layer: It is the layer 7th of OSI model. Its
provide user interface that user used to interact with
software application (IE, Opera).

Apart from this, the other key functions performed by
application layer is -

c) Synchronize Communication.

Suppose u want to access www. yahoo.com. To accomplish this
task, u write www.yahoo.com on address bar. Now Internet
Explorer with the help of protocol give u the necessary
interface to access Yahoo web page.

U can take another example, Windows Media player. We can
play music thro Win Media player. At this time, application
layer privide necessary interface to play a song thro media
player.

application layer determine wheater its a valid URL or not.

this page reside.

b)Determine Resource Availability: Application must
determine wheather the sufficient network resources are
available or not for the requested communication.

Application layer determine wheather the yahoo web page is
present on the world wide web or not. Application layer

application layer.

Communication between ur system n web server need certain
