New Technology Lecture L16 A Worldwide Network
The document provides a comprehensive history of the internet from its inception in 1969 through various stages, including early computer networking, commercialization, and the evolution of new applications. It covers significant developments like the introduction of TCP/IP protocols, the rise of the World Wide Web, and the advent of peer-to-peer networks, while addressing the challenges and innovations faced over the decades. Finally, it hints at future trends such as the Internet of Things and the growing importance of smart, local applications.

- 3. “The Internet worksbecause a lot of people cooperate to do things together” - Jon Postel 1969-1995 Computer Networking
- 4. Computer Networking Efforts onconnecting computers started early Two principal groups: Defence and Academia Defence Strategic reasons during the Cold War Any computer could be reached, and if one goes down, the others still work Academia Economic reasons Mainframes are expensive and could be justified only by the collective needs of many departments
- 6. ARPANET ▪ Advanced ResearchProjects Agency (ARPA) The Soviet Union – Founded in 1958 – Attributed Sputnik 1 lunched by the Russian on Sputnik satellite October to th 1954 – Renamed 4 DARPA ▪ Two main objectives – Computers had to talk to each other to share information – Links had to be robust

- 10. Network Layers Application Layeris for specific application Transport Layer is for reliable communication Network Layer is for routing packages
- 11. Packet Switched Source: What is a packet?
- 12. Example: Email message Thee-mail is about 3,500 bits (3.5 kilobits) in size The network you send it over uses fixed-length packets of 1,024 bits (1 kilobit) The header of each packet is 96 bits long and the trailer is 32 bits long, leaving 896 bits for the payload To break the 3,500 bits of message into packets, you will need four packets divide 3,500 by 896) Three packets will contain 896 bits of payload and the fourth will have 812 bits Source: What is a packet?
- 13. WHAT WAS THE KILLERAPP OF THE EARLY INTERNET?
- 14. FTP - FileTransfer Protocol Telnet Email Usenet Source: Internet protocol suite
- 15. HOW DO YOU WIRE ALL THESE MACHINES TOGETHER?
- 16. Connecting Computers The phonesystem was already there ! Modem - modulate and demodulate A device that modulates an analog carrier signal to encode digital information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode the transmitted information Source: Modem
- 17. The Early InternetCommunity The Internet is a simple peer to peer network Designed to be simple rather than secure ! The Internet became a community Most users where highly educated scientists Respect for others – spam nearly nonexistent Antisocial behaviour was rare ! Netiquette! How to behave on the net Violators are removed from the network
- 18. “On the Internet, nobodyknows you're a dog.” - Peter Steiner cartoon in The New Yorker 1995-2000 Commercialisation and growth
- 20. Metcalfe’s Law The valueof a network equals approximately the square of the number of users of the system (n2)
- 21. Metcalfe’s Law Everything willbe connected
- 22.
- 23. WHY DID THE INTERNET BECOME WIDESPREAD?
- 25. Maybe these gentlemenhad something to do with it… inadvertently
- 26. Enter WinSock In theearly 1990 the most popular operating systems were Windows and DOS ! Designed for Personal Computers ! Network support was later added LANs – NetBIOS ! WinSock – Windows Sockets! Microsoft had completely ignored TCP/IP Due to demand from IT companies, efforts started in 1991 WinSock 1.0 became available in 1992
- 27. World Wide Web TimBerners-Lee started his efforts on information sharing in the 1980s Working for CERN, he proposed the creation of non-hierarchical hypertext based system! The system was to be based on the established TCP/IP protocols
- 28. World Wide Web Dueto lack of support he started work on his ideas himself Using a NeXT computer he set out to create a program for building, browsing and editing hypertext pages
- 30. The Basic Ideaof WWW Hypertext To move from one document to another Resource identifiers – URL To locate a particular resource (computer, document or other resource) on the network Client-server model of computing – HTTP Client software requests of server software resources such as data or files Markup language – HTML Tags embedded in text indicate to a computer how to print or display the text, e.g. as in italics or bold type
- 31. The Rise andFall of Gopher The WWW has not the only idea for a distributed hyperlink system ! Gopher Created at the University of Minnesota A distributed document search and retrieval system Hierarchical menu structure Released in 1991 Became popular until the UoM decided to license it
- 32. WHY DID THE WWW SUCEDE?
- 33. Lesson: Why didthe WWW succeed? ▪ This design was simple – Simple syntax – Uniform URL to any resource using any protocols – No security, not authentication, no tracking ▪ HTTP – Simple protocol – GET, POST ▪ HTML – Not an advanced markup – enough to display text in different sizes ▪ Did not try to solve the problem of back-links – Avoided a huge problem
- 34. Lesson: Why didthe WWW succeed? ▪ WWW was FREE ▪ Gopher failed – More rigid system – Tree structure – not free format – NOT FREE
- 35. First Browsers Without browsers,the Web would not take off And without content, no one would create browsers ! Mosaic NCSA developed Mosaic Web Browser Developed by Marc Andreesen and Eric Bina ! The Internet became synonymous with “mosaic”

- 41. New Business Emerges InternetService Providers – ISP The business of connecting the public to the Internet Many new companies entered this market AOL became a giant New services Domain name registration and hosting Dial-up access, Leased line access Web Design, Email services Laying the Tracks Companies like Cisco Systems
- 42. Netscape Marc Andreesen andJim Clark formed Mosaic Communication Corporation 1994 Few months later renamed to Netscape Netscape became the Internet leader IPO in 1995 raised $140 million The decline came just as fast Did not establish sound business models nor build an infrastructure Went head-on into competition with Microsoft Later bought by AOL
- 44. PHONE COMPANIES COMPLETELY IGNOREDTHE INTERNET LEFT THE SPACE OPEN FOR NEW COMPANIES
- 45. “... an Internet browser is a very trivial piece of software. There are at least 30 companies that have written very credible Internet browsers, so that’s nothing...” -‐ Bill Gates
- 46. Enter the Giants Thetelephone business and software giants initially ignored the Internet Their focus was on voice or software Internet traffic was using the phone lines Classic example of the RPV theory ! Left the field open for new companies ! Seeing the success they entered the market Today most ISPs are phone companies
- 47. Enter the Giants Microsoft Camelate to the Internet Bill Gates wrote The Road Ahead Were trying to establish a proprietary “Information Superhighway” ! Microsoft Network MSN was released in 1995 with Windows 95

- 49. WHY DID THE INTERNET WIN?
- 51.
- 52. Lessons: Internet ▪ TheInternet works because of the simplicity – Dumb routing – No security – Anonymity ▪ The core of the network is always the same – Innovation is at the edges – No need to upgrade the core when new protocols are invented
- 53. Lessons: Internet ▪ Networkinfrastructure companies like the telecoms ignored the internet – Did not see any business in consumer connections – RVP theory explains this: their customer were companies ▪ Software vendors like Microsoft ignored the Internet – Saw no revenue model ▪ Left the field open for the Yahoos, Googles etc.
- 54. “Doing research onthe Web is like using a library assembled piecemeal by pack rats and vandalized nightly” - Roger Ebert (attributed) 2000-2005 Stretching the Limit
- 55. Rise of P2P Peer-to-peerNetworks Relies on the computing power and bandwidth of the participants in the network Peers act as both clients and servers No central server ! Legal controversy
- 56. Digitalization of Content Netflixrepresents 32.7% of North America´s peak Web traffic
- 57. Stretching the Limits TheInternet has scaled up to 2+ billion users Tweaked over the years Designed to be simple Innovation only happens at the edges The end-to-end principle Has prevented innovations at its core
- 58. Testing the Limits Visionariesonly partially saw the future ! The net was designed to be simple peer to peer network ! Things like security and social responsibility were not a main concern
- 59. Problems with theInternet Limited IP numbers Dumb routing – content unaware Spam, Viruses and DoS attacks Illegal distribution of content Antisocial behaviour Lack of security Not possible to update the Internet protocols
