ARPANet
Advanced Research Projects Agency Network


1969 – US Department of Defense and
Rand Corporation
Origins



2
Cold War – fear that a bomb could
demolish computing capabilities
Several computers, geographically
dispersed, networked together
Plan – if one computer was disabled,
others could carry on using alternative
communication routes
ARPANet
Transmitting the Message

Messages divided into packets

TCP/IP protocol


3
TCP – does the packeting and
reassembling of the message
IP – handles the addressing
ARPANet
Expands Beyond the Military


Research computers from universities
Defense contractors
Needed technical expertise to work on
Internet

TCP/IP software is public domain
Network became more valuable as it
embraced other networks

Bandwidth - an
expression of how
much data can be
sent through a
communications
channel in a given
amount of time
Broadband - very
high speed
connection
Transmission speeds

Transmission speeds:






18
Bps - bits per second.
Kbps - kilobits per second, or 1000 bits per second.
Mbps - megabits per second, or 1 million bits per
second.
The prefix “mega” in “megabits” comes from the
Greek word “megas” meaning “mighty” or “great.”
Gbps - gigabits per second, or 1 billion bits per second.
The prefix “giga” in “gigabits” comes from a Greek
word meaning “giant.”
Telephone (Dial-Up) Modem: Low Speed
but Inexpensive & Widely Available

Modem - device that
sends and receives
data over telephone
lines to and from
computers

have a maximum
speed of 56 Kbps.
dial-up connection.
High-Speed Phone Lines: More
Expensive but Available in Most Cities

ISDN - hardware and software that allows
voice, video, and data to be communicated over
traditional copper-wire telephone lines


DSL - also uses regular phone lines but much
faster than ISDN


1.5-8.4 Mbps download; 16-640 Kbps upload
T1 - a traditional trunk line that carries 24
normal telephone circuits and has a transmission
rate of 1.5 Mbps

The World Wide Web (Cont.)



26
Multimedia (from “multiple media”) - technology that
presents information in more than one medium,
including text graphics, animation, video, and sound.
Hypertext - a system in which documents scattered
across many Internet sites are directly linked--with
hyperlinks--so that a word or phrase in one document
becomes a connection to a document in a different
place.
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) - the set of
special instructions (called “tags”) that are used to
specify document structure, formatting, and links to
other multimedia documents.
