Architecture of the Internet The Internet was started over three decades ago as a US government sponsored project. The Internet originally connected several universities and the government; it eventually grew to include some private companies/research labs. As such, the initial users of the Internet were scientists/technologists who were well versed in the workings of the network (and who did not have the malicious intents of modern hackers). The motivation of the Internet at this time was to
everyday. Local internet providers have begun expanding their connection speed and size through the use of satellite links. It is estimated that in the next ten years the number of internet connections in Singapore will almost be double what it is today. Summary Electronic Commerce is changing the way business is conducted today. Singapore has positioned itself to become a major part of the E-business trend. Developing technology, government support, and growing internet awareness make Singapore
As recent events have shown, The Internet has played a vital role in various social movements across the Middle East. Social networks such as Facebook and Twitter are becoming the new soapboxes for people to stand upon and speak their mind. As with all opinions though, there are people who disagree with them, and want to discuss the opposing side or stop them altogether. A corrupt government or other leaders in power can try to use Censorship to stop an opinion from being heard. This is the case
Perversion and the Internet The Internet. An information super-highway to hate, violence, and child pornography. Sure it was ok when the nudie pictures came out, but teaching children racism and bigotry and exploiting innocent children in a sexual manner is taking things a little too far. Buckle your seatbelts and strap on those eyeglasses; we are about to take a ride on the “Informational Highway”. The First Amendment has been stretched, ripped, and torn into little pieces of propaganda
users. In this day and age of internet use, people in any given location can choose from at least fifteen national companies, such as sprintlink, compuserve, ameritech, erols and so on. Using these services are less expensive than America Online. Per month for unlimited use they average at around $10 to $15 dollars as opposed to AOL's hefty $19.95 a month. AOLers are paying for the appealing menus, graphics and services AOL uses to drive their customers to the internet. These same features can be located

It was the first organization that was put in place to provide the internet services in the region. ZAMNET Communication Systems was strategically located at the University of Zambia so that it can be used in providing research for the highest institution of learning
the internet? Last year, SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) was introduced to the world. If this bill was passed, many sites would have to censor certain pieces of information, as well as remove a lot of the content already uploaded. SOPA would also crack down on terminating torrent sites, which are used to share files such as music, movies, video games, e-books, and whatever else is a digital file. In my opinion, SOPA should not be passed due to the fact that censoring information on the internet is an
senders and receivers, authorization to access, forwarding “to encrypt other TCP/IP based sessions” [2]. Privacy of data is maintained by encrypting that data that are transferred over the internet. The key is randomly selected and secretly negotiated between client and server and once the session is over, the key get discarded. Different Encryption algorithm are used such as 3-DES (triple-DES), IDEA, Blowfish. For integrity of data and to ensure that data that has arrived is same as data sent, SSH
NEW CUSTOMER CONNECTIONS I. LOOKING AHEAD: PREVIEWING THE CONCEPTS To thrive in this new digital age-even to survive-marketers must rethink their strategies and adapt them to today’s new environment. II. MAJOR FORCES SHAPING THE INTERNET AGE Here we discuss four specific forces that underlie the new digital age: A. Digitalization and Connectivity * Today a growing number of appliances and systems operate on digital information, which comes as streams of zeros and ones
can help increase privacy. The central office which is also referred to as the local exchange serves a group of subscribers (customers). All of the subscribers are physically connected to the central office through a pair of copper wires. All communications with the subscribers go through the central office. It is basically a wire system that is a building that houses inside plant equipment. The local exchange carriers (LEC) are local telephone companies that provide service along with other LEC’s
Use of the Internet as a Tool for Piracy The internet is an ever increasingly powerful tool for finding everything from entertainment to reference to daily news. When first created, the internet was only a shadow of what it has become. Most people didn't even have a computer, let alone a connection to the internet. In the last decade, however, computers have become more and more affordable, and internet service providers have become far more widespread. According to the World Almanac and Book
can secure all classified information over the internet. As the company’s office are located geographically it is their first priority to have secure data transfer over the internet including email and all classified information. In order to secure all this information hash-function cryptography technique will be recommended to the company to correspond over the internet with the secure channel. Hash-function will secure the whole data packet with the key as well, it can be used to authenticate the

The development of Bitcoin reflects a model of Internet-based collective learning community. And the system where Bitcoin is operating on, Peer-to-Peer network is modern version of collective working. Bitcoin is multi-field product, which is electronic but indirectly based on silicon and it shows the
The Internet and International Business The Internet and international business is an interesting topic- discussing an area of business that will probably be around for many years and possibly centuries to come. Since its earliest days, the Internet has been a means of communication, an essential tool in almost instant communication. People can "talk" to others by sending email messages, at the speed of pressing the send key. This information is instantly transmitted to the receiver, who

compared to 3G cellular technologies. Wi-Fi provides local network access for a few feet with speed of about 54Mbpswhereas single WiMAX aerial haves a range of up to more than 40 miles with a speed of about 70Mbps or more than that. WiMAX brings an Internet connection that can serve the local Wi-Fi network. This refers to mobile stations that assume the part of the source of the network to the user; the second is the access service network that assumes two are additional base stations and constitutes
Much emphasis has been placed on globalization in the automotive industry as a result of the rapid increase in automotive exports. The role of government somewhat distinguishes the automotive industry from other industrial sectors, by means of policy implementation steering its development(Lamprecht 2009:7).The assist of government through the motor industry development program(MIDP),first established in 1995,has acted as a driving force in the promoting of competitiveness and export expansion.The
Cryptography: the Past, Present and Future The idea of cryptography has been in existence since 1900 BC with the use of inscriptions on the tomb of Khnumhotep II, in Egypt (Red Hat). Ever since that time, the uses and methods have changed, but the overall idea of transferring information in a secret and efficient manner has been the driving force for faster and safer data transfer. This paper will define cryptography, discuss its long history, current trends and the future of the complex electronic
The Exchange of Information The Internet is a telecommunications superhighway, a collective data of information for corporations, government institutions, private individuals, and universities. This branch of roads leads into nearly every corner of the globe. The superhighway, picks up potential travelers from far away places, exotic destinations, and interesting people. The internet can transport you from one major destination to another quickly, then it also can detour you into a leisurely
interaction and communication among people using mobile and internet based technology and equipments. It is the way of intercommunication in which they can create, share or exchange their ideas and information in online groups and communities. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, and that allow the creation and exchange of user-generated content”(Haenlein).
