• It enables users to share access to resources from

anywhere at any time

 Internet Hardware Evolution

• Internet Protocol is the standard communications protocol

used by every computer on the internet.
• The conceptual foundation for creation of the Internet was
significantly developed by three individals.
– Vannevar Bush – MEMIX (1930)

– Norbert Wiener

– Marshall McLuhan

• Licklider was founder for the creation of the ARPANET

(Advanced Research Project Agency Network)
G.Pradeep, AP/CSE 10
 • Clark deployed a minicomputer called an Interface Message
Processor (IMP) at each site.
• Network Control Program (NCP) - first networking protocol
that was used on the ARPANET

11

 Internet Hardware Evolution
• Establishing a Common Protocol for the Internet

• Evolution of IPv6

• Finding a Common Method to Communicate Using the

Internet Protocol
• Building a Common Interface to the Internet

• The Appearance of Cloud Formations - From one computer

to a Grid of Many

G.Pradeep, AP/CSE 12
 Establishing a Common Protocol for
the Internet
• NCP essentially provided a transport layer consisting of the
ARPANET Host-to-Host Protocol (AHHP) and the Initial
Connection Protocol (ICP)
• Application Protocols
– File Transfer Protocol (FTP), used for file transfers
– Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), used for sending email.
• Four versions of TCP/IP
– TCP V1
– TCP v2
– TCP v3 and IP v3
– TCP v4 and IPv4
13
 Evolution of IPv6
• IPv4 was never designed to scale to global levels.

• To increase available address space, it had to process large data

packages (i.e., more bits of data).

• To overcome these problems, Internet Engineering Task Force

(IETF) developed IPv6, which was released in January 1995.

• IPv6 is sometimes called the Next Generation Internet Protocol

(IPNG) or TCP/IP V6.

14
 Finding Common Method to Communicate
using the Internet Protocol
• In the 1960s, the word hypertext was created by Ted Nelson.

• In 1962, Engelbart’s first project was Augment and its purpose

was to develop computer tools to augment human capabilities.

• He developed the mouse, Graphical user interface (GUI) and the

first working hypertext system named NLS (oN-Line System)

• NLS was designed to cross-reference research papers for sharing

among geographically distributed researchers.

• In the 1980s, web development in Europe by Tim Berners-Lee

and Robert Cailliau

15
 Building a Common Interface to the Internet

• Berners-Lee developed the first web browser featuring an

integrated editor that could create hypertext documents.

• Following this initial success, Berners-Lee enhanced the server

and browser by adding support for the FTP (File Transfer
Protocol)

16
 Building a Common Interface to the Internet

• Mosaic was the first widely popular web browser available to the
general public. Mosaic support for graphics sound and video
clips.

• In October 1994, Netscape released the first beta version of its

browser, Mozilla 0.96b, Over the Internet

• In 1995, Microsoft Internet Explorer was developed that

supports both a graphical web browser and the name for a set of
technologies

• Mozilla Firefox released in November 2004, because very

popular almost immediately.
17
 The appearance of Cloud formations from
one computer to a grid of many
• Two decades ago, computers were clustered together to form a
single larger computer in order to simulate a supercomputer and
greater processing power.

• In the early 1990s, Ian Foster and Carl Kesselman presented their
concept of “The Grid”. They used an analogy to the electricity
grid, where users could plug in and use a (metered) utility
service.

• A major problem in clustering model was data residency.

Because of the distributed nature of a grid, computational nodes
could be anywhere in the world.

• The Globus Toolkit is an open source software toolkit used for

building grid system and applications. 18

 Server Virtualization

• Virtualization is a method of running multiple independent

virtual operating systems on a single physical computer.

• This approach maximizes the return on investment for the

computer.

• Virtualization technology is a way of reducing the majority of

hardware acquisition and maintenance costs, which can result in
significant savings for any company

23
 Parallel Processing

• Parallel processing is performed by the simultaneous execution

of program instructions that have been allocated across multiple
processors.

• Objective: running a program in less time.

• The next advancement in parallel processing –

multiprogramming.

• In a multiprogramming system, multiple programs submitted by

users but each allowed to use the processor for a short time.

• This approach is known as “round-robin scheduling (RR

Scheduling)”

25
 Vector Processing

• Vector processing was developed to increase processing

performance by operating in a multitasking manner.

• Matrix operations were added to computers to perform

arithmetic operations.

• This was valuable in certain types of applications in which data

occurred in the form of vectors or matrices.

• In applications with less well-formed data, vector processing

was less valuable.

26
 Symmetric Multiprocessing Systems

• Symmetric multiprocessing systems (SMP) was developed to

address the problem of resource management in master/slave
models.

• In SMP systems, each processor is equally capable and

responsible for managing the workflow as it passes through the
system.

• The primary goal is to achieve sequential consistency.

27
 Massively Parallel Processing Systems

• In a massive parallel Processing, a computer system with many

independent arithmetic units or entire microprocessors which run in
parallel.

• All the processing elements are interconnected to act as one very large
computer.

• Early examples of MPP systems were the Distributed array processor,

the Goodyear MPP, the connection machine and the ultrcomputer.

• MPP machines are not easy to program but for certain applications
such as data mining, they are the best solution.

 Components of the Cloud

▪ Front-end (regular desktop, thin client, mobile

device)
▪ Back-end (servers)
▪ Storage / Datacenters
▪ Delivery Service
