NETWORKS HISTORY RESUME

A computer network (also called a computer network or computer network) is a set of

computer nodes and software connected together by physical or wireless devices that
send and receive electrical impulses, electromagnetic waves, or any other means of
transporting data. , in order to share information, resources and offer services.

In 1969 the first computer network in history was built. Called ARPANET, it was made up
of four nodes located at UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles), SRI (Stanford
Research Institute), UCBS (University of California, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles) and UTA
University. In 1970 ARPANET began using a Host-to-post protocol for its communications.
This protocol was called NCP and it is the predecessor of the current TCP / IP that is used
throughout the Internet. In the same year, Norman Abramson developed ALOHANET,
which was the first radio packet-switched network and would join ARPANET in 1972.

In 1972 ARPANET was presented at the First International Conference on Computers and
Communication in Washington DC. ARPANET scientists demonstrated that the system
was operational by creating a network of 40 connected points at different locations. This
stimulated the search in this field and other networks were created.

Between 1974 and 1982 a large number of networks were created, among which:

 Telenet (1974): Commercial version of ARPANET.

 Usenet (1979): Open system focused on e-mail and that still works.
 Bitnet (1981): Linking American universities using IBM systems.
 Eunet (1982): United Kingdom, Scandinavia and Holland.

At that time the world of networks was a bit chaotic, despite the fact that ARPANET was
still the "standard". IN 1982, ARPANET adopted the TCP / IP protocol and at that time the
Internet (International Net) was created.

WWW

The World Wide Web (WWW) is a network of "sites" that can be searched and displayed
with a protocol called HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

 In 1991 this technology was presented to the public even though the growth in its
use was not very spectacular, at the end of 1992 there were only 50 websites in
the world, and in 1993 there were 150.
 In 1993 Mark Andreesen of the Illinois National Center for SuperComputing
Applications (NCSA) published Mosaic X, a browser that is easy to install and use.
It was a noticeable improvement in the way the graphics were displayed. It was
very much like a browser today.
  After the publication of WWW technology and browsers, the Internet began to be
opened to a wider audience: commercial activities, personal pages, etc. This
growth accelerated with the appearance of new, cheaper and more powerful
computers.

What does the Internet currently offer?

 Electronic mail (e-mail)

The electronic mail or e-mail, allows to write, save, send and receive mail through
electronic communication systems. Electronic mail has revolutionized communications
between people and has left traditional mail in a practically marginal position when it
comes to personal communications.

 Browsers

Browsers are programs that allow users to interact graphically with information on a
website. Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are two of the most popular browsers
currently.

 Chat

The chats offer the possibility of communicating between many people in writing through
the Internet. Chats have allowed people who use them to communicate with other users
anonymously.

 Search engines

The emergence of web search engines that index much of the content that can be found
on the Internet, such as Google or Yahoo, has revolutionized the way people search for
the information they need.

 Wikipedia

Wikipedia is the first online encyclopedia collaboratively written from the Internet by
volunteers. Most of the content can be improved by anyone with a web browser. Wikipedia
has also revolutionized the way people search for the information they need, and has
slowed down paper encyclopedias of a lifetime.

 Electronic commerce (e-commerce)

 Electronic commerce consists of selling or buying products or services through electronic
systems such as the Internet. Thanks to sites like eBay, anyone from anywhere can buy all
kinds of products from home using a browser.
