Review From Chapter 9: 9/30

1. The internet is growing too fast to track. Millions of new users connect to the internet every year in the United States alone, and the rest of the world is adding new connections by the minute. The internet is decentralized and doesn't have hard boundaries and keeps on growing and growing by the second.

2. They are networking protocols. The internet is built on TCP/IP protocols. The Internet is defined as the global network that runs over the internet protocol.TCP/IP is important for the success of the internet because it separated the end to end stateful link control at the enpoints from the packet based routing in the nodes in the middle.TCP builds on the connectionless IP packet transport, to provide a reliable byte stream end to end over the internet.

Main frame computers are large scale general purpose computers systems. The word main frame has its origin in early computers which were big in size and required large frame work in house. Main frame computers have large storage capacities in several million words. Secondary storage devices are directly accessible by these computers. These computers systems have more than one CPU and can support a large number of terminals.

TechReflect: 9/2

Many great things came about on the development of the computer and one thing for sure is the invention of the typewriter. Typewriters took lots of time and effort to get a paper done so the idea of a computer came to mind which will make typing easier, faster, reliable and save lots of time. World War II was one of the most influential reason that the invention of computer came. Many use of weaponry and gadgets were used in the war it evolved rapidly from those early days, with new technologies replacing old every few years. and the Space Race had a huge impact on the computer it spurred further developments in computer technology. Multitasking jobs were done before the computer so that reduce the tasks you've done before.

The automobile is probably the greatest invention that was created by man, it saves time, you get to your destination faster. But some things are bad about the automobile is that it threatens our environment by the deadly gas that is put into our atmosphere.

The television is used for educational purposes and entertainment as well. The positive things that comes out of the television is that the things you watch can be beneficial to you like the news around the world and so forth. The negative issues that arises from television that it makes you lazy and also inappropriate things might be showed on the T.V.

I think were better off without the Television but the automobile is a necessity in human daily life. T.V. is just a big waste of time it makes you not realize the important things of life it has no point but if use T.V. for good uses like educational purposes than that is an exception.

The computer connects you around the globe with a click of a mouse. Its for both entertainment like watching videos online, games, movies, music you name it. Also can be used for educational purposes like researching for a project or an assignment. The positive things on the computer is mainly everything about, you can surf the web, chat with your friends and etc. The negative issues on the computer is that it may get you addicted and may lead you into having bad habits and many inappropriate photos and pop ups are on the web.

I think that the computer is a necessity that humans do need, it saves time on not going to the library, it makes researching easier, its reliable and you can connect with other people around the globe.
