Subject Main problems in today’s Internet lecture 10

Internet has brought the Internet user many new opportunities. The individual user is able to use the Internet now as tool that makes their lives much easier. However next to all the good thinks Internet has brought to our society has Internet also many problems that give the individual user a lot of frustration. Examples of problems that have occurred during the existence of the Internet are lack of real quality of service without any business model, scalabity and many more. Nowadays the new requirements of architecture of Internet are security, predictability, economically profitability and more.

The research for new opportunities to make the Internet of today more efficient and more save. The areas of research are Network architecture, heterogeneous physical layers, security and economics and policy. Examples of economics and policy are investment costs, regulation and demand for the Internet usage. Expectations are that the demand of Internet will only increase and that there will be many investors, which see business opportunity in the World Wide Web.

LISP is according to the LISP website “a family of computer programming languages with a long history and a distinctive, fully parenthesized syntax.” The limitations of LIPS next to naming and addressing from programming languages, the lost transpency, which include firewalls and NATS. Potential solutions of the LISP limitations are enhancements of current internet architecture and clean slate solutions.

New Internet Generation - Architecture of Internet

New Internet Generation

Subject Architecture of Internet lecture 9

Lecture number 9 was about Architecture of Internet and mainly about the Network organization of the architecture of Internet. IANA activities are Internet assigned numbers authority. The activities of IANA are mainly the functions of domain names, number resources and protocol assignments. Furthermore the registration of regional, national, and local Internet registry can be defined as IANA activities. Domain names always have a country code and generic top-level domain. Large companies governmental institutions and universities are assigned to large “blogs” of addresses.

Further discussed are AS relationships, which include transit, peer and customer. Further discussed by the lecture was the Hierarchical organization that included Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3.

Network architecture is a set of high-level design principles that guides the technical design of the network. Examples of those principles are IP, TCP and BGP. The main difference between TCP and BGP is that by TCP all traffic must be for short distances and BGP a network were today’s network stability depends on.

The main problems of today’s internet are security that prevents the internet from viruses worms spam an other threats on the internet, Fragility and Reliability.

New Internet Generation - LTE Network Interoperability

New Generation Internet

Subject Class 7 LTE Network interoperability

Lecture 7 of the subject new generation Internet was about LTE interoperability. The lecturer explained the difference of WLAN and UMTS interworking. Where UMTS are large macro studies cells with a capacity of up 2-3 mpts and WLAN are the small micro slides higher speed around 54 Mbps low costs. UMTS often is called the third generation mobile communication and is a system where several parties make several deals between the suppliers. UMTS is much faster compared to other suppliers.

Another topic discussed was the Wireless LAN, which has a low price and is expected to have a very low price when it will be used for public access. Later in the in lecture there was more discussed about wireless LAN and mobility management, which can be divided into mobile terminal idle and mobile terminal active.

New Internet Generation - European Action for the development of Internet

New Internet Generation Class 5

Subject European Action for the development of Internet

One of the more interesting subjects of the course New Internet Generation was the lecture about the European Action for the development of Internet. This subject is all about the research and development organizations of the European Union on the field of internet.

The fifth class of the subject New Internet Generation was all about broadband Internet and about the ICT policy, which is a policy for wider adoption of the Internet in general according to the Lisbon strategy, which was applied in 2010. Competition is the reason that European mobile and broadband market grows fast. Nowadays there is a lot of support for future networks and policy drivers by governmental institutions. The reason is that governmental institutions support future networks to develop is that governments use future networks for education, health-care, care for the elderly and usage of energy effectively.

The development of future Internet aspects is increasing dependence of society, limitations of current Internet architecture, new applications and services/technologies and the industry technology, which gives many new opportunities for Europe to develop.

Internet is very big today, but still there are many new ways the development of the Internet is able to realize. Examples like the physical entity, routers switchers, social media and many more.

The FP7 Research programme which goal is to create the network of the future plus to create converted infrastructure. I think the EU development program will have many opportunities in these fields and with their research programs they will be able to develop new opportunities

New Internet Generation - Impact of Internet in the modern society

New Internet Generation Class 4

The fourth class of New Internet generation was all about the impact of Internet in the modern society. To apply the information given the lecturer was using several business models like Business-to-Business, administration to Consumer etc.

Internet replaced many old tools for finding information. Many Internet users have a big part of their social network in websites like face book, LinkedIn and Twitter. Next to these social networks there are many forums, which can be found on the Internet where news items are discussed and where people can form their own personal opinion by information they can find themselves. Investigators expect more usage of the Internet in the near future by the further development of mp3 players IPods cell phones and other small tools which supply multimedia broadcasting.

New Internet Generation - Wikipedia

New Generation Internet Class 3

In the third lecture of the subject New Generation Internet the lecturer supplied information about Wikipedia. The students of today are mostly already familiar with the source Wikipedia. In most cases Wikipedia is used for checking facts and finding information about study or work related topics. The new generation of young professionals, people, who are about to graduate University in the next 2 years, usually check Wikipedia as background source, which supplies them a broad view about the information they are looking for.

Wiki started in 1995 and after GNUpedia, and Nupedia, Wikipedia was launched on the Internet in 2001, a website which has 16 million articles today. Nowadays, there are different types of Wiki sources. The most famous and popular type is Wikipedia, but there are many other wiki sources like Wikimedia.com and wikitravel.com. The benefits of Wikipedia are inviting all users to create a page and promote meaningful information. Nowadays, Wikipedia is the 8^th most popular website worldwide and can be seen as the biggest collection of human knowledge. Wikipedia has a neutral point of view, has a free content and there are no firm rules that rule the Wikipedia program. Wikipedia is not a discussion forum, paper encyclopaedia or democracy experiment.

The key to success of Wikipedia is mainly because it is easy to edit, there are more constructors compared to destructors, Wikipedia is an organized community and if you as an editor wants to enter you need to agree on the basic principles given by the website community.

Wikipedia is ruled by the Wikipedia foundation and collaborates with a global network of other wikipedias in countries worldwide. There are different roles inside the Wikipedia network, think about registered user, check user, administrator etc.

The main advice of lecture 3 was that as a user you need to be careful if the articles you read are correct. If you are a user always check the sources of the article, watch history of changes and read the references.
