Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Assignment 2  Some initial comments Some people have submitted.docx files. This will be penalised. Some people have not included blogs on Blackboard. This will be penalised. Some people have worked individually without permission. Guess what will happen ….

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Assignment 3  Reflect Answer reflection questions from tutorials See last lecture for ideas  Research Write about a particular IT topic of your choice (5- 6 paragraphs) electronic voting, information security, 3D user interfaces, digital music, digital video, electronic commerce, natural language processing, DNA computing, quantum computing, cryptography, malware detection and removal, Moore's Law, green computing, …

Lecture 20: InternetSE Fundamentals Self and Peer Assessment  How well has each person contributed to the group?  Evaluated over the entire semester  Assessed on process, not product  Work out a grade for each person (CR, DI etc)  Then convert this to a mark out of 20  Submit list of marks to tutor with justifications  Repeat previous step until the tutor is satisfied  See guidelines in Blackboard material

Internet  Originally designed to survive nuclear war  Grew out of army research into missile communication  Key role in breaking down the Berlin Wall Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Internet  Dedicated channel: two nodes exclusively use a single channel works like traditional telephone  Packet switching: break data down into packets send packets from many users along link can exploit redundancies and variations in network

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Protocols  Transmission Control Protocol (TCP): basic necessities for data transfer connection-oriented  Internet Protocol (IP): data-oriented necessary for packet-switched network “Should run on two tin cans and a string” There is an implementation for carrier pigeons...

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Protocols

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Application Protocols  Define messages sent and data formats used  Generally known by user  Examples include HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, etc. Often specified in resource identifiers

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT World Wide Web (WWW)  Combination of 4 different ideas:  Hypertext: information format for moving documents around  Markup Language: codes embedded in text indicating structure and presentation meaning  Resource Identifiers (URI, URL,...)  Client-server model: client software requests resources from servers  Note WWW is not the Internet …

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Network Layer (Internet Protocol)  Real intelligence is in the network layer  Adds next destination to packet  Not complete list of addresses  Sends to next destination  Retrieves final destination packets for this node  Passes them to the transport layer  Routing tables can be updated when disconnections occur  Hop counts used to stop endless looping

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Transport layer  Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) often used  User Datagram Protocol (UDP) becoming more common  TCP Establishes connection first Send and wait for acknowledgement Reliable Can adjust flow control to avoid congestion Often best for (which is not real-time) Older

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Transport layer  UDP Doesn’t establish connection Just sends and forget Efficient No congestion adjustment Works well for DNS lookup Often used for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) applications such as Skype

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Internet addresses  Unique 32-bit identifier (up to 4,294,967,296)  Soon to become 128-bit identifier  Managed by Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)  ISPs get “blocks” of addresses  32-bit string represented as N 1.N 2.N 3.N 4 where N i is in the range  means

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT Internet addresses  Dotted decimal notation is still not very kind to humans …  -> ??.??.??.??  Translation done by name servers which look up the Domain Name System (DNS)  Domains such as rmit.edu.au can be structured by the domain owner (eg goanna.cs.rmit.edu.au)

Lecture 20: InternetIntro to IT IPv4 vs IPv6  Internet Protocol version 4 (used since 1981)  32-bit addresses  Can handle “only’’ 4,294,967,296 unique addresses  Exhausted in February 2011  IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses  IPv6 can handle “only” 3.4×10 38 addresses  IPv5 didn’t change the IPv4 address space and wasn’t successful for other reasons …
