what it the internet

12amorgan — 2015-04-23 10:14:09 UTC

The internet is the connection between us and the networks. The networks connected to the networks. Its the connection between our device and the other devices. the internet is only the connection between us and other devices. it isnt the way we search stuff.

How the internet got its name

12amorgan — 2015-04-23 10:28:01 UTC

the internet got its name from inter meaning internal and net meaning network.

Connection over countries

12amorgan — 2015-04-23 10:29:40 UTC

the internet connects over different countries by fibre optic cables. Fibre optic cables have glass in and totally internaly reflect light rays. The machine at one end sends light rays down the wire, then the machine picks the signal up and turns it to electrical impulses again

Who invented the internet?

12amorgan — 2015-04-23 10:33:09 UTC

Not one person invented the internet. It was many people. LeonardKleinrocks had the intitial idea of the internet but he never actually invented it. After that many people took the idea and developed it. A company BBN are then given the contract to make the subnetwork.

advantages of a network

12amorgan — 2015-04-24 11:59:48 UTC

•Sharing files – you can share files between your friends quickly and easily because you are all connected. •Sharing software – You save money because you only need to download a software once and it will be on every computer. •Sharing resources such as printers- All the computers are connected to the same resources because they are all connected to it so it is easier to work with. •Logging on from anywhere – you can have a account on the network and you can then log on at any computer and be able to access any of your files. •Central Backups – the network also saves all the files that you make so if you need to access a file you can get it from the network. •Central installation of software – if you install a software on the central computer then it is installed on every computer and you don’t have to do it to every computer •Central virus checks – On a network you can get virus because the computers are all connected so a virus spreads faster. •Security– you have to get extra security to protect you from virus. It isn't as secure because all the computers are connected so it is easier to hack or gain documents.

Disadvantages of a network

12amorgan — 2015-04-24 12:04:35 UTC

•It is expensive and then you need to manage it. Virus can spread quicker and it can fail. You can get network fail. If one of them isn't working and then no one can do any work. It is also slower if lots of people log on at once.

Internet and networks.

12amorgan — 2015-04-30 10:40:31 UTC

The internet works by networks. the networks are all connected together to make the internet faster and better. they are connected so we can access them anywhere. They networks are connected to make inter-networks. if a signal is blocked then it can go down enough route and you still get your message.

How the internet works

12amorgan — 2015-04-30 10:44:01 UTC

The internet works by sending difefernet messages down lines or by waves to the computer you are sending them to. The internet is is a series of networks so if one network is down then the message is sent a different route

packets.

12amorgan — 2015-04-30 10:52:17 UTC

large messages are broken down into packets. These packets contain information about where thye cam from and where they are going. Each packet contains the information about the packet and how it fits ttogether.

Binary code

12amorgan — 2015-05-06 11:55:25 UTC

binary code is a set of numbers that represents a letter or function. A computer sees everythng in Binary code and changes it to letters so that we can read it. Each binary code is read by a computer and it knows the function, it then does what the binary code says. binary code is only 1 and 0 and to make different numbers you have to have a set off 1 and 0. It starts with a grid of : 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128. Here is a example of how you can make a number

WWW

12amorgan — 2015-05-06 12:17:48 UTC

WWW stands for the world wide web. The world wide web lets us search things and get different websites. the World wide web is different to the internet because in the World wide web it is not a direct connecion. here is a video about it

Google

12amorgan — 2015-05-07 10:20:03 UTC

Google started out as a company called backrub on standford servers created by the Google creators Larry page and Sergey Brin. It then had to be disabled because it was to big. In 1997 on September 15 the search engine google.com was born. The name Google comes from googol a mathmatical term. In 1999 they moved from a garage to 165 University avenue. In April in 1999 they move to their first mountain view office. In may 2000 they released Google in 10 different languages. In april 2012 google drive is introduced. In april 2013 google is available to download on Iphone and Ipad. Google is now one of the biggest search engines and the most common search in Bing is for Google.

The future of the internet

12amorgan — 2015-05-14 10:07:15 UTC

The future of the internet is big. They predict that in the future we will have glass that connects to our phones and we can control the phone on the glass. On the glass notifications will appear and we will be able to do anything we can do on our phone. They also predict that we will be able to put things on our phones like maps from a bus station by just standing next to it. This will all happen with the connection between our phone and the thing we want to do. This is connected through many internet servers and anyone would be able to join certain things. They also think there will be Hololens which are being made, they allow you to see social things and let you do work with only glasses on. Here is a link to the web page.

I think in the future that the internet will allow us to connect to any machine and car and control it all through a phone because of the connection of internet. This could be possible because you can already change the heating of your home through a app that is connected through the internet to a special machine in the boiler. I think the future of the internet will control our lives and we wont need to do anything accept for use our phone. This is already possible in a experimental house in London and was shown on Gadget Man.

Boolean code

12amorgan — 2015-05-14 11:56:09 UTC

Boolean code is simply a expression of True and False. A example is in a programm were it asks the person to do something and depending on if they did it then it would be true or false. If it was False it would repeat but if it was True then it would continue.

The three Boolean operators are And,Not,Or. These are easy for us to understand because we use then everyday but the computer does exactly as it says to do.

Arithmetic operators are used to give a True, False value in Boolean code. They are like ones we use for maths when saying a number is equal to or smaller than ext....

Boolean code is used to maybe remember logins and load up games. It is also used in Games in a variable so if score goes over a certain number then the arithmetic code will be used to tell when this happens and when it does it then tells you have won the game.

Hubs

12amorgan — 2015-05-14 12:08:30 UTC

A hub is a hardware and connects a computer to a network. The computer connects through a "port". The more ports then the more computers can be connected on that Hub and network.

Router.

12amorgan — 2015-05-14 12:10:44 UTC

A router sends out wireless internet and connects to a main stream of internet from a supplier and then supplies it out to devices in that area and can have a password on so that no one can get on unless they have the password.

Apple watch

12amorgan — 2015-05-19 09:49:13 UTC

I looked at the future of the apple watch and it connects your phone to your watch on your wrist. It has all the data of all your phone and you can use it on your wrist. They also have a sport one and it can tell you all about pulses and the calories you have burned. These all connect to your phone and you can do things on your wrist. It tells you about all the information you look up an it has data from your phone. It is connected through Bluetooth on your phone.
