There is a shift from a hardware view of
computing to software & services
"Ten years out, in terms of actual
hardware costs you can almost think of
hardware as being free -- I'm not
saying it will be absolutely free -- but in
terms of the power of the servers, the
power of the network will not be a
limiting factor," Gates said, referring to
networked computers and advances in
the speed of the Internet.

How Software Works
Software consists of a
number of files at least
one of which is
“executable”.
Executable File: stores
computer instructions in
binary machine language.

Programming Languages
How software is created
Succeeding with Technology
Programming Languages
A programming language is the primary tool of
computer programmers, providing English-like
commands for writing software that is translated into
the detailed step-by-step instructions executed by the
processor.
A Programming Statement in C++
cout << "\nPlease Enter The Password:";
Syntax: a set of rules that describe how
programming statements and commands
should be written.

Source Code
void main()
{

char password[200] = "opensaysme";
char input[200];
while(strcmp(password, input)) {

cin >> input;

}
}
cout << "\nWelcome, Oh Great One!\n";

Sprint moves to packet-switch network
Sprint is to change its entire circuit-switched telephone network to packet
technology in an attempt to keep up with customer demand for capacity.
Sprint's eight million lines will be moved over to the packet-based asynchronous
transfer mode (ATM) system, allowing voice, video and data to be broken down into
small digital blocks and sent, in effect, simultaneously.This allows the network to be
used more efficiently, and will also allow new multimedia services, Sprint said.
Sprint is the first major telecoms company to move all of its local, tandem and longdistance networks over to packet technology, according to Nortel
Networks spokeswoman Ann Fuller.

Internet Protocols
Protocols are rules that govern how data is
transmitted and received.
They govern all Network and Internet
communications:
The Internet
The Web
Email
Instant Messaging
Etc.
Succeeding with Technology
Ports are numeric addresses
assigned to specific network
services, and used in packet
headers to direct data packets to
the appropriate service. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_
TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers
Internet Protocols
TCP/IP
Transaction Control Protocol (TCP): Divides data into
packets for transmission, and reassembles data from
packets upon delivery.
Internet Protocol (IP): Controls the delivery of packets
between IP addresses.
IP Address
a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of
information that is sent in packets across the Internet.
