The Internet

by Chris Woodford . Last updated: May 2, 2023.

W hen you chat to somebody on the Net or send them an e-mail, do you ever stop to think how many different computers you are using in the process? There's the computer on your own desk, of course, and another one at the other end where the other person is sitting, ready to communicate with you. But in between your two machines, making communication between them possible, there are probably about a dozen other computers bridging the gap. Collectively, all the world's linked-up computers are called the Internet . How do they talk to one another? Let's take a closer look!

Photo: What most of us think of as the Internet—Google, eBay, and all the rest of it—is actually the World Wide Web . The Internet is the underlying telecommunication network that makes the Web possible. If you use broadband , your computer is probably connected to the Internet all the time it's on.

What is the Internet?

Global communication is easy now thanks to an intricately linked worldwide computer network that we call the Internet. In less than 20 years, the Internet has expanded to link up around 230 different nations. Even some of the world's poorest developing nations are now connected.

Chart: Countries online: In just over a decade, between 1988 and 2000, virtually every country in the world went online. Although most countries are now "wired," that doesn't mean everyone is online in all those countries, as you can see from the next chart, below. Source: Redrawn by Explainthatstuff.com using data from Figure 1.1 "All online, but a big divide", ITU World Telecommunication Development Report: Access Indicators for the Information Society: Summary, 2003 , p.5 (blue bars, 1998–2003) and Percentage of Individuals using the Internet 2000–2021 [XLS spreadsheet format], International Telecommunications Union, December 2022 edition (2010 and 2021, green bars). Please note that the horizontal (year) axis is not linear beyond the blue bars.

Lots of people use the word "Internet" to mean going online. Actually, the "Internet" is nothing more than the basic computer network. Think of it like the telephone network or the network of highways that criss-cross the world. Telephones and highways are networks, just like the Internet. The things you say on the telephone and the traffic that travels down roads run on "top" of the basic network. In much the same way, things like the World Wide Web (the information pages we can browse online), instant messaging chat programs, MP3 music downloading, IPTV (TV streamed over the Internet), and file sharing are all things that run on top of the basic computer network that we call the Internet.

Artwork: "Information superhighway": The Internet is like a global road network on which many different kinds of traffic can travel. Much of it seems one way—from distant computers (servers) into your home—but in reality the traffic is always two-way.

The Internet is a collection of standalone computers (and computer networks in companies, schools, and colleges) all loosely linked together, mostly using the telephone network. The connections between the computers are a mixture of old-fashioned copper cables, fiber-optic cables (which send messages in pulses of light ), wireless radio connections (which transmit information by radio . waves), and satellite links.

Chart: Internet use around the world: This chart compares the estimated percentage of households with Internet access for different world regions and economic groupings. For each region or grouping, the lighter bar on the left shows the percentage for 2015, while the darker bar shows 2019. Although there have clearly been dramatic improvements in all regions, there are still great disparities between the "richer" nations and the "poorer" ones. The world average, shown by the black-outlined orange center bars, is still only 57 out of 100 (just over half). Not surprisingly, richer nations are well to the left of the average and poorer ones well to the right.

What does the Internet do?

The Internet has one very simple job: to move computerized information (known as data ) from one place to another. That's it! The machines that make up the Internet treat all the information they handle in exactly the same way. In this respect, the Internet works a bit like the postal service. Letters are simply passed from one place to another, no matter who they are from or what messages they contain. The job of the mail service is to move letters from place to place, not to worry about why people are writing letters in the first place; the same applies to the Internet.

Just like the mail service, the Internet's simplicity means it can handle many different kinds of information helping people to do many different jobs. It's not specialized to handle emails, Web pages, chat messages, or anything else: all information is handled equally and passed on in exactly the same way. Because the Internet is so simply designed, people can easily use it to run new "applications"—new things that run on top of the basic computer network. That's why, when two European inventors developed Skype , a way of making telephone calls over the Net, they just had to write a program that could turn speech into Internet data and back again. No-one had to rebuild the entire Internet to make Skype possible.

Photo: The Internet is really nothing more than a load of wires—metal wires, fiber-optic cables, and "wireless" wires (radio waves ferrying the same sort of data that wires would carry). Much of the Internet's traffic moves along ethernet networking cables like this one.

How does Internet data move?

Circuit switching.

Much of the Internet runs on the ordinary public telephone network—but there's a big difference between how a telephone call works and how the Internet carries data. If you ring a friend, your telephone opens a direct connection (or circuit) between your home and theirs. If you had a big map of the worldwide telephone system (and it would be a really big map!), you could theoretically mark a direct line, running along lots of miles of cable, all the way from your phone to the phone in your friend's house. For as long as you're on the phone, that circuit stays permanently open between your two phones. This way of linking phones together is called circuit switching . In the old days, when you made a call, someone sitting at a "switchboard" (literally, a board made of wood with wires and sockets all over it) pulled wires in and out to make a temporary circuits that connected one home to another. Now the circuit switching is done automatically by an electronic telephone exchange.

If you think about it, circuit switching is a really inefficient way to use a network. All the time you're connected to your friend's house, no-one else can get through to either of you by phone. (Imagine being on your computer, typing an email for an hour or more—and no-one being able to email you while you were doing so.) Suppose you talk very slowly on the phone, leave long gaps of silence, or go off to make a cup of coffee. Even though you're not actually sending information down the line, the circuit is still connected—and still blocking other people from using it.

Packet switching

The Internet could, theoretically, work by circuit switching—and some parts of it still do. If you have a traditional "dialup" connection to the Net (where your computer dials a telephone number to reach your Internet service provider in what's effectively an ordinary phone call), you're using circuit switching to go online. You'll know how maddeningly inefficient this can be. No-one can phone you while you're online; you'll be billed for every second you stay on the Net; and your Net connection will work relatively slowly.

Most data moves over the Internet in a completely different way called packet switching . Suppose you send an email to someone in China. Instead of opening up a long and convoluted circuit between your home and China and sending your email down it all in one go, the email is broken up into tiny pieces called packets . Each one is tagged with its ultimate destination and allowed to travel separately. In theory, all the packets could travel by totally different routes. When they reach their ultimate destination, they are reassembled to make an email again.

Packet switching is much more efficient than circuit switching. You don't have to have a permanent connection between the two places that are communicating, for a start, so you're not blocking an entire chunk of the network each time you send a message. Many people can use the network at the same time and since the packets can flow by many different routes, depending on which ones are quietest or busiest, the whole network is used more evenly—which makes for quicker and more efficient communication all round.

How packet switching works

What is circuit switching.

Picture: Circuit switching is like moving your house slowly, all in one go, along a fixed route between two places.

Suppose you want to move home from the United States to Africa and you decide to take your whole house with you—not just the contents, but the building too! Imagine the nightmare of trying to haul a house from one side of the world to the other. You'd need to plan a route very carefully in advance. You'd need roads to be closed so your house could squeeze down them on the back of a gigantic truck. You'd also need to book a special ship to cross the ocean. The whole thing would be slow and difficult and the slightest problem en-route could slow you down for days. You'd also be slowing down all the other people trying to travel at the same time. Circuit switching is a bit like this. It's how a phone call works.

What is packet switching?

Picture: Packet switching is like breaking your house into lots of bits and mailing them in separate packets. Because the pieces travel separately, in parallel, they usually go more quickly and make better overall use of the network.

Is there a better way? Well, what if you dismantled your home instead, numbered all the bricks, put each one in an envelope, and mailed them separately to Africa? All those bricks could travel by separate routes. Some might go by ship; some might go by air. Some might travel quickly; others slowly. But you don't actually care. All that matters to you is that the bricks arrive at the other end, one way or another. Then you can simply put them back together again to recreate your house. Mailing the bricks wouldn't stop other people mailing things and wouldn't clog up the roads, seas, or airways. Because the bricks could be traveling "in parallel," over many separate routes at the same time, they'd probably arrive much quicker. This is how packet switching works. When you send an email or browse the Web, the data you send is split up into lots of packets that travel separately over the Internet.

What are "clients" and "servers"?

There are hundreds of millions of computers on the Net, but they don't all do exactly the same thing. Some of them are like electronic filing cabinets that simply store information and pass it on when requested. These machines are called servers . Machines that hold ordinary documents are called file servers; ones that hold people's mail are called mail servers; and the ones that hold Web pages are Web servers. There are tens of millions of servers on the Internet.

A computer that gets information from a server is called a client . When your computer connects over the Internet to a mail server at your ISP (Internet Service Provider) so you can read your messages, your computer is the client and the ISP computer is the server. There are far more clients on the Internet than servers—billions of them, if you count smartphones!

Artwork: Ordinary computers ("clients"), like the one you're using right now, communicate with more powerful ones ("servers") that hold things like web pages, emails, and so on. This is called client-server computing. Clients can also communicate with other clients. This is called peer-to-peer (P2P) communication.

When two computers on the Internet swap information back and forth on a more-or-less equal basis, they are known as peers. If you use an instant messaging program to chat to a friend, and you start swapping party photos back and forth, you're taking part in what's called peer-to-peer ( P2P ) communication. In P2P, the machines involved sometimes act as clients and sometimes as servers. For example, if you send a photo to your friend, your computer is the server (supplying the photo) and the friend's computer is the client (accessing the photo). If your friend sends you a photo in return, the two computers swap over roles.

Apart from clients and servers, the Internet is also made up of intermediate computers called routers , whose job is really just to make connections between different systems. If you have several computers at home or school, you probably have a single router that connects them all to the Internet. The router is like the mailbox on the end of your street: it's your single point of entry to the worldwide network.

History of the internet nethistory.ppt

who created the internet? • when did it start? • why? • how did it evolve? • why do we care? • how does it work? • what does it take to get access to it? nethistory.ppt

who started it, and why? • the U. S. Department of Defense • Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) • began ~1962 in reaction to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik in 1957 • DARPA was told to find ways to utilize the nation’s investment in computers • funding for projects that might provide dramatic advances for military • timeframe of research could be 5 years or longer • formed with an emphasis towards basic computing research • was not oriented only to military products • eventually, DARPA settled on computer networking as a main goal nethistory.ppt

it didn’t happen all at once • 1969 • ARPANET commissioned by DoD for research into networking • 1971 • 15 nodes (23 hosts) networked for the first time • used NCP (network control protocol) to allow computers to communicate UCLA, SRI, UCSB, Univ of Utah, BBN, MIT, RAND, SDC, Harvard, Lincoln Lab, Stanford, UIU(C), CWRU, CMU, NASA/Ames • 1972 • the first e-mail program was created by Ray Tomlinson of BBN • 1973 • first international connections to the ARPANET • University College of London (England) via NORSAR (Norway) • development began on the protocol later to be called TCP/IP • (collaboration between Stanford and DARPA) • 1974 • first use of term internet in a paper on Transmission Control Protocol • 1976 • Elizabeth II, Queen of the United Kingdom, sends her first email nethistory.ppt

how did the network evolve? • ARPA’s created the first network • ARPA did not act as an enforcer on standards, but instead, invited public participation in improving the network • the founding philosophy: • to be resilient, the network was not supposed to rely on a centralized control • this was revolutionary • the network relied on a growing number of standard specification documents • only standards-compliant computers could communicate • ARPA retained “control” but exercised it judiciously (little) nethistory.ppt

who wrote the network standards? • university researchers participated in standards work • private industry research contributed personnel • AT&T, IBM, and many others funded their employees to work on network improvements • some people did it “for free” as a sideline to their work • standards were created by “the public” and “developers everywhere” • via the RFC process (public proposals) • if many in industry and research institutions implemented the proposals, they eventually became “standard” nethistory.ppt

what is an RFC? • RFC stands for Request For Comment • RFCs are numbered standards documents • managed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) • RFC 1, Host Software was published in 1969 • thousands now exist • many are regarded as de facto standards by commercial and free software writers • many others are essentially ignored.  • RFCs remain known as RFCs even if they become standards nethistory.ppt

who writes an RFC? • not standards organizations (such as ANSI, ISO or ECMA) • published by technical experts acting on their own initiative • during a subsequent period of review, anyone on the Internet may submit comments • this process has avoided the intractible problems of many formal standards bodies • RFC 2026 is about the RFC process: The Internet Standards Process, Revision 3 • a complete RFC index is available from the IETF website • the text of a particular RFC can be found by entering its number nethistory.ppt

internet in 1977 nethistory.ppt

networking timeline - eighties • 1978 • TCP protocol (Stanford research since 1976) split into TCP and IP protocols • 1980 • ARPANET grinds to a complete halt on 27 October • because of an accidentally-propagated status-message virus • name server developed at University of Wisconsin • so users would not have to know the exact path to other systems • on January 1st, every machine connected to ARPANET had to use TCP/IP • TCP/IP became the core internet protocol, replacing NCP entirely • 1983 • first IBM personal computers sold • 1984 • Domain Name System (DNS) introduced on ARPANET • 1986 • Mail Exchanger (MX) records developed • to allow non-IP network hosts to have email domain addresses • Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) created • to coordinate contractors for DARPA • Coordinated work on ARPANET, US Defense Data Network (DDN), and the Internet core gateway system • 1987 • email link established between Germany and China • 1989 • number of hosts breaks 100,000 nethistory.ppt

networking timeline – advent of WWW • 1990 • ARPANET ceases to exist • Tim Berners-Lee and CERN in Geneva implement HTTP for members of the international high-energy physics community • independent internet service provicers begin to spring up everywhere • 1991 • PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) released by Philip Zimmerman • 1992 • number of internet hosts breaks 1,000,000 • no web yet; email and newsnet only (mostly at command line) • world-wide web (WWW) HTTP protocol released by CERN • Tim Berners-Lee, developer nethistory.ppt

the web lumbers to its feet • 1993 • the InterNIC created by U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to maintain the internet: • directory and database (AT&T) • domain registration (Network Solutions Inc.) • information (General Atomics/CERFnet) • Marc Andreessen and the Univ. of Illinois develop a GUI HTTP client • Mosaic (see http://www.ibiblio.org/pioneers/andreesen.html) • first web browser; initially it was free • U.S. White House comes on-line (http://www.whitehouse.gov/): • President Bill Clinton: [email protected] • Vice-President Al Gore: [email protected] • 1996 • most internet traffic carried by independent Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) such as MCI, AT&T, Sprint, and many smaller companies • number of internet hosts exceeds 15,000,000 • planning begins for IPv6 (next generation) nethistory.ppt

IP v4 (now) vs. IP v6 (future) • the number of unassigned internet addresses is running out • a new classless scheme is gradually replacing the system based on classes A, B, and C • tied to adoption of IPv6 nethistory.ppt

the InterNIC • Internet Network Information Center • a registered service mark of the U.S. Department of Commerce and now a defunct entity • the InterNIC began as a collaboration between AT&T and Network Solutions, Inc. (NSI) supported by the National Science Foundation; it offered four services: • InterNIC Directory and Database Services -- online white pages directory and directory of publicly accessible databases • Registration Services -- domain name and IP address assignment • Support Services -- outreach, education, and information services for the Internet community • Net Scout Services -- online publications that summarize recent happenings of interest to Internet users • the InterNIC is currently an informational Web site to provide the public with information about domain name registration • ICANN (see next slide) now oversees domain name registration nethistory.ppt

ICANN • Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers • a nonprofit organization that does: • IP address space allocation • protocol parameter assignment • domain name system management • root server system management functions previously performed under U.S. Government contract • ICANN was created in the fall of 1998 in response to a policy statement issued by the US Department of Commerce. This statement called for the formation of a private sector not-for-profit Internet stakeholder to administer policy for the Internet name and address system • ICANN is responsible for managing and coordinating the DNS to ensure universal resolvability nethistory.ppt

Domain Name Service (DNS) • stands for Domain Name System (or Service) • a distributed database system • translates domain names into IP addresses, and vice versa www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4 • DNS is a hierarchy of databases • if one DNS server doesn't know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another (higher-level) one, recursively until the IP address association has been returned • nslookup is the command-line network application for DNS nethistory.ppt

ICANN coordinates the root DNS servers • at the heart of the DNS are 13 special computers, called root servers • the root servers are distributed around the world • all 13 contain the same vital information • this is to spread the workload and back each other up nethistory.ppt

resiliency of the network • the network is not under centralized control • frustrating but also good • part of the collapse of USSR in the late 1980’s came from the government’s inability to suppress information from being disseminated over the world-wide computer networks • in recent years, there have been serious, coordinated cyber-attacks on the DNS root servers; as many as 11 of the 13 were once disabled… • but the internet kept working, with only some slowdown • during Katrina, the internet kept working in the stricken zones for anyone who had power and access via a phone line, cable network or satellite • in some instances, this was the only reliable source of information about what was happening in the stricken areas • a few data centers remained open, with backup power, barracading themselves inside and publishing status reports nethistory.ppt

domain names • every domain name has a suffix that indicates which top level domain it belongs to • there are only a limited number of such domains, such as: • .gov - government • .edu - education • .org – nonprofit organizations • .mil - military • .com - commercial business • .net - network service providers • .ca - Canada • .th - Thailand nethistory.ppt

DARPA spending today • in 2001 ~$500 million total ($223 to universities) • in 2005 ~$500 million total ($114 to universities) • many more grants going exclusively to defense industry • many grants won’t allow non-U.S. citizens • more grants require non-publication of results nethistory.ppt

How to Make a “Good” Presentation “Great”

• Guy Kawasaki

Remember: Less is more.

A strong presentation is so much more than information pasted onto a series of slides with fancy backgrounds. Whether you’re pitching an idea, reporting market research, or sharing something else, a great presentation can give you a competitive advantage, and be a powerful tool when aiming to persuade, educate, or inspire others. Here are some unique elements that make a presentation stand out.

• Fonts: Sans Serif fonts such as Helvetica or Arial are preferred for their clean lines, which make them easy to digest at various sizes and distances. Limit the number of font styles to two: one for headings and another for body text, to avoid visual confusion or distractions.
• Colors: Colors can evoke emotions and highlight critical points, but their overuse can lead to a cluttered and confusing presentation. A limited palette of two to three main colors, complemented by a simple background, can help you draw attention to key elements without overwhelming the audience.
• Pictures: Pictures can communicate complex ideas quickly and memorably but choosing the right images is key. Images or pictures should be big (perhaps 20-25% of the page), bold, and have a clear purpose that complements the slide’s text.
• Layout: Don’t overcrowd your slides with too much information. When in doubt, adhere to the principle of simplicity, and aim for a clean and uncluttered layout with plenty of white space around text and images. Think phrases and bullets, not sentences.

As an intern or early career professional, chances are that you’ll be tasked with making or giving a presentation in the near future. Whether you’re pitching an idea, reporting market research, or sharing something else, a great presentation can give you a competitive advantage, and be a powerful tool when aiming to persuade, educate, or inspire others.

View, manage, and install add-ins for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word

When you enable an add-in, it adds custom commands and new features to Microsoft 365 programs that help increase your productivity. Because add-ins can be used by attackers to do harm to your computer, you can use add-in security settings to help protect yourself.

Note:  This article only applies to Microsoft 365 applications running on Windows.

View installed add-ins

You can directly install add-ins from this page or select  More Add-ins  to explore.

In the Office Add-ins dialog, select  My Add-ins  tab.

Select an add-in you want to view the details for and right-click to select  Add-in details  option.

Click a heading below for more information .  

Add-in categories explained

Active Application Add-ins      Add-ins registered and currently running on your Microsoft 365 program.

Inactive Application Add-ins      These are present on your computer but not currently loaded. For example, XML schemas are active when the document that refers to them is open. Another example is the COM add-in: if a COM add-in is selected, the add-in is active. If the check box is cleared, the add-in is inactive.

Document Related Add-ins      Template files referred to by open documents.

Disabled Application Add-ins     These add-ins are automatically disabled because they are causing Microsoft 365 programs to crash.

Add-in      The title of the add-in.

Publisher      The software developer or organization responsible for creating the add-in.

Compatibility      Look here for any compatibility issues.

Location      This file path indicates where the add-in is installed on your computer.

Description This text explains the add-in function.

Note:  Microsoft Outlook has one add-in option in the Trust Center: Apply macro security settings to installed add-ins . InfoPath has no security settings for add-ins.

Permanently disable or remove an add-in

To disable or remove an add-in follow these steps:

Select  File > Get Add-ins . Alternatively, you can select  Home > Add-ins .

In the Office Add-ins dialog, select  My Add-ins  tab.

Select an add-in you want to remove and right click to select  Remove  option.

View or change add-in settings

You can see and change add-in settings in the Trust Center, descriptions of which are in the following section. Add-in security settings may have been determined by your organization so not all options may be available to change.

Select  File  >  Get Add-ins .

Select  More Add-ins > Manage My Add-ins.

Select  Trust Center  >  Trust Center Settings  >  Add-ins.

Check or uncheck the boxes you want.

Add-in settings explained

Require Application Add-ins to be signed by Trusted Publisher      Check this box to have the Trust Center check that the add-in uses a publisher's trusted signature. If the publisher's signature hasn’t been trusted, the Microsoft 365 program doesn’t load the add-in, and the Trust Bar displays a notification that the add-in has been disabled.

Disable notification for unsigned add-ins (code will remain disabled)      When you check the Require Application Extensions to be signed by Trusted Publisher box, this option is no longer grayed out. Add-ins signed by a trusted publisher are enabled, but unsigned add-ins are disabled.

Disable all Application Add-ins (may impair functionality)      Check this box if you don't trust any add-ins. All add-ins are disabled without any notification, and the other add-in boxes are grayed out.

Note:  This setting takes effect after you exit and restart your Microsoft 365 program.

While working with add-ins, you may need to learn more about digital signatures and certificates , which authenticate an add-in, and trusted publishers , the software developers who often create add-ins.

Manage and install add-ins

Use the following instruction to manage and install add-ins.

To install a new add-in:

You can directly install popular add-ins on the page or go to More Add-ins  to explore. 

Select the add-in and select  Add . Or browse by selecting  Store  tab in the Office add-in dialog to find other add-ins to install and select Add for that add-in.

To manage your add-ins:

Select  File > Get Add-ins and from the bottom, select More Add-ins.  Or select  Home  >  Add-ins > More add-ins.

In the Office dialog, select My Add-ins tab. If you are not able to see your add-ins, select  Refresh to reload your add-ins.

Select  Manage My Add-in  to manage and select  Upload to browse and add an add-in from your device.

How to cancel a purchased add-in

If you've subscribed to an add-in through the Microsoft 365 Store that you don't want to continue, you can cancel that subscription.

Open the Microsoft 365 application and go to the Home  tab of the ribbon.

Select  Add-ins  and then select  More Add-ins > My Add-ins tab   to view your existing add-ins.

Select the app you want to cancel and select  Manage My Add-ins .

Under the Payment and Billing section choose Cancel Subscription .

Select  OK and then Continue .

Once that's complete you should see a message that says "You have cancelled your app subscription" in the comments field of your apps list.

Why is my add-in crashing?

Some add-ins might not be compatible with your organization's IT department policies. If that is the case with add-ins recently installed on your Microsoft 365 program, Data Execution Prevention (DEP) will disable the add-in and the program might crash.
