Technology Development

In recent years, various developments are quite astonishing, particularly in the areas of technology, especially in terms of information and communication. Information technology formerly known as computer technology, along with other electronic devices, was transformed into one in the fusion ability.

At first with the discovery of a variety of simple devices, ranging from telephone, analog-based, developed and developing countries continue to show a variety of other electronic devices. Until finally this technology integrated with one another.

On the other hand, due to the development of technological capability, there is also a fairly dramatic change in the travel and business operations, which generate new services, including network utilization in terms of a world without limits.

The phone, which at the beginning was found in 1876, intended as a medium to transmit sound, and one of the application of the concept of analog, also gave no small contribution to the development of technology. Up to around the 1960's, the application of this analog still survive, until after that, began leading the digital technology.

Later, digital technology began to spread to various design technologies adopted and used by humans. Facsimile, is one stepping stone from the utilization of telecommunications networks, which can give contributions and ideas, that datapun able to pass through these telephone media.

So also with the development of computers. Introduced the first computer was ENIAC II, installed and used in 1946, after the second world war. This computer is an electronic circuit tubes weighing 20 tons. Its growth is also quite stunning, both in size and ability to work.

Current technological developments, komputerpun size, only in a handful of hand sizes. With such size, variety of processes capable diolahnya, not only to perform the process relating to the computation and database processing, but also capable in terms of communicating with other users who use a device that was still a separation in terms of function.

Protocol, is one who holds a key role here, so that various devices can interact with each other. Given this protocol, one machine with other machines can communicate to each other. Protocol is a method that resulted in a device with other devices to each other and become involved in conversation berkomununikasi so that finally shook hands (handshaking), and language can be likened to an agreement between the two devices, which resulted in each other understand what he was told and what is being processed.

A device that is produced from different manufacturers, something that may play a role to participate in enliven the field of information technology and telecommunications, for the same protocols, tools and even then could incorporate themselves into parts of various existing devices. So is the bandwidth, as data paths, compression, codes, and bits, the backbone of the fundamental, especially for the development of information technology and telecommunication.

Two months ago after Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon, there was a big step at UCLA, when the first computer connected to the ARPANET. ARPANET connected the four sites, including UCLA, Stanford Research Institute (SRI), UC Santa Barbara, and University of Utah. In 1977, there were over one hundred mainframe and mini computers that are connected to the ARPANET, mostly still in University.

With this facility, allowing professors and students can share information with one another without ever leaving their computer. Currently, there are more than 4 million Internet hosts worldwide. Since 1988, the Internet grew exponentially, the size roughly doubles every year. The term Internet was originally created by its developers because they needed a word that can describe the network of networks connected to each other that they had made at that time. Internet is a collection of people and computers in the world which are all connected by miles of cable and telephone lines, each party also can communicate by using language that is commonly used.

So what is the Internet? First, the Internet is a vast collection of large and small computer networks interconnected using the existing communications networks worldwide. Second, the Internet is a whole human being who actively participate that make the Internet a source of valuable information resources. What mebuat it could work? All because the game is power and the wave that finally processed in such a way. All come from the analog or digital.
