Networks...
Computers are useful alone, but are better when connected (networked) Access more information and software
than is stored locally
Help users to communicate, exchange information…changing ideas about social interaction
Perform other services—printing, Web, email, texting, mobile, etc.

Network Structure
Different networks depending on distance between computers: Local area network (LAN)
▪ Small area: room or building
▪ Either wired or wireless
Wide area networks (WAN)▪ Large area: more than 1 km
▪ Fiber-optic, copper transmission lines, satellite
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 5
Basic Types of Networks
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 6
Network Type Differentiating FactorsPeer-to-Peer • No computer running server software
Server-Based Networks • Computer running server software manages network traffic
Local Area Network (LAN) • Limited geographical area
Wide Area Network (WAN) • Across town or across the globe• Third-party service provider• More bandwidth = more expense• Connects to LANs with a router
Campus Network • Buildings in close proximity
Metropolitan Area Network (MAN)
• Clusters of buildings in close proximity separated from other clusters
• Third-party service provider
Protocols
To communicate computers need to know how to set up the data to be sent and interpret the data received
Example protocols EtherNet—for physical connection in a LAN
TCP/IP: transmission control protocol / internet protocol (Internet)
HTTP: hypertext transfer protocol (Web)
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 7
LAN in the Lab
EtherNet is a popular LAN protocol▪ Recall, it’s a “party” protocol

Campus & The World
The campus subnetworks interconnect computers of the UW domain which connects to Internet via a gateway

History of the Internet
Again, a video: History of the Internethttp://vimeo.com/2696386
The basic story: Computer systems at multiple locations
Desire to share data and eliminate duplicate work
Two major design challenges

Design Goals for the Internet
Diversity of systems in place
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 12
Site C:Uses carrier pigeons
Site B:Morse Code
Site A:Pig Latin
Not feasible to rebuild every site with the same
type of connectivity
Design Goals for the Internet
Diversity of systems in placeSolution: Accept the diversity
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 13
Site C:Uses carrier pigeons
Site B:Morse Code
Site A:Pig Latin
Internet Protocol
Within a local network, any protocol is allowed
To send messages outside a local network, it must be converted into the IP protocol

Postcard Analogy
Break messages into parts Send each message separately Delivery:
Each card moves forward to a server that knows how to get to the destination
Cards can take multiple paths
Cards arrive out of order

Naming Computers—Take 1
People give computers domain names Hierarchical scheme
Domains begin with a “dot” and get “larger” going right▪ .edu All educational computers, a TLD
▪ .washington.edu All computers at UW
▪ dante.washington.edu A UW computer
▪ .ischool.washington.edu iSchool computers
▪ .cs.washington.edu CSE computers
▪ june.cs.washington.edu A CSE computer2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 23
Naming Computers—Take 2
Computers are named by IP address, four numbers in the range 0-255
▪ cse.washington.edu: 128.95.1.4
▪ ischool.washington.edu: 128.208.100.150
Remembering IP addresses would be brutal for humans, so we use domains
Computers find the IP address for a domain name from the Domain Name System—an IP address-book computer
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 24
Top-Level Domains (TLDs)
.edu .com .mil .gov .org .net domains are “top level domains” for the US Recently, new TLD names added
Each country has a top level domain name:▪ .ca (Canada)
▪ .es (Spain)
▪ .de (Germany)
▪ .au (Australia)
▪ .at (Austria)
▪ .us (US)
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 25
Logical vs Physical
View the Internet in two ways: Humans see a hierarchy of domains
relating computers—logical network
Computers see groups of four number IP addresses—physical network
Both are ideal for the “user's” needs The Domain Name System (DNS)
relates the logical network to the physical network by translating domains to IP addresses
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 26
Internet vs World Wide Web
Many people misuse the terms “Internet” and “World Wide Web”
Let’s get them right
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 27
Internet:
All of the wires, fibers, switches, routers etc. connecting named computers
Internet:
All of the wires, fibers, switches, routers etc. connecting named computers
World Wide Web:
That part of the Internet that stores and serves Web pages—web servers, client computers
World Wide Web:
That part of the Internet that stores and serves Web pages—web servers, client computers
internet or Internet?
The terms "internet" and "Internet" refer to different things "Internet" is the complete collection of
internetworked computers
"internet" refers to any collection of networked computers
Most of the time, you probably mean the "Internet"
2012-04-02 Katherine Deibel, Fluency in Information Technology 28
Summary
Networking is changing the world Internet: named computers using TCP/IP
WWW: servers providing Web pages
Principles▪ Logical network of domain names
▪ Physical network of IP addresses
▪ Protocols rule: LAN, TCP/IP, http...
▪ Domain Name System connects the two
▪ Client/Server, fleeting relationship on WWW
