‘Technology’ is a word which has miraculously changed our day to day life. It has made our life easy to live. The term technology is derived from the Greek word ‘tekhne’ which refers to an art or craft and ‘logia’ which means an area of study. Thus, technology means, literally, the study or science of crafting. It is a technique of making machines which we now-a-days use to fulfill our needs. Whether it’s a normal electric kettle or an airplane, technology has reached to each and every field and turned many impossible things into possible. We can’t even imagine today’s world without technology. Just look around from where you are sitting and count the number of gadgets that you use for your daily life. You would be amazed by the results.

Technology and science, these two words are nearly inseparable. Both science and technology imply a thinking process; both are concerned with causal relationships in this material world, and both employ an experimental methodology that results in empirical demonstration that can be verified by repetition. Technology is often a consequence of science and engineering, although technology as a human activity precedes the two fields. The exact relations between science and technology in particular have been debated by scientists, historians, and policymakers in the late 20th century.

Technology and gadgets are redefining communication, commerce and many more sectors. The world gets smaller, technologies converge and companies are competing to offer the most versatile and technologically advanced products and gadgets on the market. Among one of them are the Mil-Com Components Inc. which offers various options for your military and commercial electronic needs. Few of components from these top-of-the-line manufactures MIL-COM supplies are Tyco connectors, ADI connectors, and SV Microwave which are ready for immediate shipment.

HI fren, how r u? arrived hre yes' day itis gr8 but quite cul..... I m very tried frm journey....Hope u 2 B fine... I wud write 2 u later


The other day when I received such an e-mail from my friend. I was shaken by his ludicrously truncated language. Apart from the agonizing linguistic abbreviations, his message was full of lackadaisical spellings, shoddy grammar and abandoned punctuation, which I found extremely difficult to comprehend. Ironically, my fellow friend is not a high school out as his linguistic error would error would suggest. He is now pursing his master's degree in English literature overseas. so certainly, the typographical errors are just the resultant effects of the breakneck speed with which he types. IN today's technocratic world , his message is quite acceptable in all aspects. But imagine ten years ago before compute keyboards had not handicapped our witting would, his casual writings would have only been the matter of ridicule.

However now, it largely exemplifies the post modern sense of linguistic shortcuts extensively used in the internet. typing just 'r' for are, u for you and 2 for to, my friend might save few seconds of his precious time but this has made him look like a five year old kid writing with crayons. Moreover,I believe such communication on condense language turns out to be quite impersonal as well. A coherent, welled structured message surely imbues a greater sense of encompassment to readers. I have no great feeling when somebody addresses me as 'dpesh', 'dpes' or even "the place." it makes me feel as if losing my identity. The shortcut word "luv" might technically replace the word 'love' but it cannot be amiable as the original one. Love's never or labor lost, the lazy should realize this.

It's no surprise that constant chatting on the internet has destroyed people's aptitude to think rationally and write correctly. A neighbor tells me that this ten-year old computer save son often replaces 'i' instead of 'I' and 'u' instead of 'you' in this assignment. So such destructive diversion of language can be really missing leading. This may well be exposed in examination papers as well. Imagine the disposition of an invigilator, who would find his students writing- "Shakespeare was a gr8 poet' or 'npl lies between ind and chn."

What's more sordid are the invention of imprudent internet pundits, interesting wild shortcuts at their will. The single word "because" one might write'bcoz', and the others 'b/c', 'bcos', 'b'cuz' and so on, thus creating a complete anarchy on the internet. it also exposes the scary echelon of people who don't seem to realize the differences between seemingly similar words such as: their or there, than and then, effect and affect, your and you're and many others.

I am not totally against emoticons used in e-mails they when overused can be very annoying. One of my friends is so fond of such of lurid emotions that owns when see wrote a mail to tell me about his letdown in exam, she chose a red rose to start with! i find it ridiculous also she message in a uppercase made me feel like shouting, whilst her mood at the time of writing must have been somber. Moreover, the problem of flawed spellings can be disastrous in medicine practices. The notoriously cursive handwriting of doctor's, often compared to an electrocardiograph tracking, has always misunderstanding among patients and pharmacist and now a computer-savvy doctor, and could create a deadly dilemma. The online treatment being quite common now, owns spelling error he makes in the names of the medicine, and that could well lead patients the other way.

Destructive diversion of language can be real misleading. This may well be exposed in examination paper as well. Imagine this position of an invigilator, who would find his students writing-"Shakespeare was a gr8 poet' or 'Npl lies between Ind and Chn."

No doubt, the internet has made communication better, convenient and faster. But i don't think this can compensate for the damage done two linguistics. for the arrogant shortcuts maybe more convenient for instant messaging, they implicitly cultivate a kind of stupidity within us. Such practices further deteriorate our acumen. The famous Thomas Elva Edition once said. "there is no shortcut for anything worth going and the linguistic shortcuts would only lead us to some serious mayhem." Thus, our abbreviated approach to a online typing seriously needs to be reassessed. The problem, though, is not the internet, but our hasty approach to language.

The widespread development and use of LAN’s, PC’s and workstations in the 1980s allowed the Internet to flourish. Although it was still limited, mostly to researchers and developers, the Internet was well-established as technology by 1985. Regular computer users started using Internet for daily activities. In 1994, Pizza Hut started offering pizza ordering on its Web page while First Virtual, the first ‘cyberbank’, launched its online presence. By this time, there were more than 3,864,000 hosts on the Internet.

Until ARPANET was transformed into the Internet, the only one method of networking was the circuit switching method. In this method, networks interconnecting at the circuit level passed individual bits on a synchronous basis along a portion of an end-to-end circuit between a pair of end locations. But Internet involved very basic packet switching network that later moved to include packet satellite networks, ground-based packet radio networks and other networks. What this means…………

Evolution of internet-cartoon logo


The Internet,as know it today had a very interesting start. A concept termed as “Galactic Network" by J C R Licklider of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) envisioned the Internet far back as August 1962. According to this concept, all computers across the planet would be interconnected and by this, everyone could quickly access data and programs from any ‘site’. Which is what happens at present.

Part-1


Two college students, 19-year-old Shawn Fanning and 20-year-old Sean Parker founded Napster in May 1999. They originally just wanted to trade music over the Internet with their friends, however, other users latched onto this software and soon, it became global phenomenon. In February 2001, it had 29.4 million registered users who shared 2.79 billion files in the same month.


However, the major drawback of Napster was the need to connect to a central server to authenticate and then pass the control back to the nodes for further file transfer. In this kind of a system, theserver maintains directories of what is stored in each peer computer.The central server directs the connections between peers. Thus, while the connection is made directly from peer to peer, server is still necessary.


When a new user installs the client software in the computer and then goes online using the software, he is first connected to the central server. Once connected, he can then search for a specific song and sends his search on the server.

On the server side, it has indexed files that are available on other nodes connected to the server. Depending on the search you have sent, you will find a list of files or results. Now you can sort the results according to the bit rate, file size, artist name or any of the other factors important to you and get a more relevant file list.


Once you have chosen what file to download, the Napster software on the other end of the line will upload the file directly to them. The locations of all the music files of the users that are currently online are kept on the central network, but the files themselves stay on the users’ computers until another computer asks for it.
