Following the lecture on Network, I have found the video very informative, it clearly illustrated entire internet switching process. Technology is so precise and complex but we don’t normally realise when dealing on everyday basis. Just imagine how frustrated we become if one morning we find our email or web site is not accessible. Oh my God, thanks to the person whose idea was behind the wonderful invention.
Here is some further reading about: How the Internet Works
The Internet workings include a technical design and a management structure. The management structure consists of a generally democratic collection of loosely-coupled organizations and working groups with mostly non-overlapping responsibilities. The technical design is founded on a complex, interlocking set of hierarchical tree-like structures like Internet Protocol addresses and domain names, mixed with networked structures like packet switching and routing protocols, all tied together with millions of lines of sophisticated software that continues to get better all the time.
So far this combination of management and technical structures has worked well, providing the reliable, powerful communication platform on which the rest of the complexity of the Internet is built. The following link provides more information.
