Computer Networks: Crash Course Computer Science #28

Spread The Viralist



Today we start a three episode arc on the rise of a global telecommunications network that changed the world forever. We’re going to begin with computer networks, and how they grew from small groups of connected computers on LAN networks to eventually larger worldwide networks like the ARPANET and even the Internet we know today. We’ll also discuss how many technologies like Ethernet, MAC addresses, IP Addresses, packet switching, network switches, and TCP/IP were implemented to new problems as our computers became ever-increasingly connected. Next week we’ll talk about the Internet, and the week after the World Wide Web!

  1. I'm not sure if anyone will answer this but,
    you said that they can chop up big transmissions into smaller pieces called packets. These packets take different routes to get to the destination resulting in them arriving in a different order. is this why google classroom uploads your files in a different order than how you put them in? If anyone sees this can you pls answer I'm very curious.

  3. I'm taking the Google course over at Coursera and this has helped a lot in putting together all of the information I've learned. The Google courses are good, but information-dense without many visuals.
