Computer Networking Computer Networking Fundamentals Get Connected Uses and Upgrades From Bradley Mitchell, your Guide to Computer Networking More than 75 years ago, a man from Belgium envisioned an information system that incorporated many of the good features of today's Internet... without some of the bad ones. Though he didn't play a prominent role in the development of computers and networks, Paul Otlet and the Radiated Library was an amazing concept. Networking With Cell Phones and Cell Modems Mr. Otlet's system used telephones to request information from the remote library. In those days people weren't tempted by Angry Birds or other such games and took the time to actually read things. But the advantages of cell phone networking are significant too.

The Internet is actually a collection of many client-server systems, like FTP and the DNS. Search Related Topics:  client server networks  history of networking  Who Created the Internet Network?
