 APRANET

ARPANET was the network that became the basis for the Internet. Based
on a concept first published in 1967, ARPANET was developed under the
direction of the U.S. Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). In
1969, the idea became a modest reality with the interconnection of four
university computers. The initial purpose was to communicate with and
share computer resources among mainly scientific users at the connected
institutions. ARPANET took advantage of the new idea of sending
information in small units called packets that could be routed on different
paths and reconstructed at their destination. The development of the TCP/IP
protocols in the 1970s made it possible to expand the size of the network,
which now had become a network of networks

 FTP & TCP/IP

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the basic

communication language or protocol of the Internet. It can also be used as a
communications protocol in a private network (either an intranet or an extranet).
When you are set up with direct access to the Internet, your computer is provided
with a copy of the TCP/IP program just as every other computer that you may send
messages to or get information from also has a copy of TCP/IP.
TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means a connection is established and
maintained until the application programs at each end have finished exchanging
messages. It determines how to break application data into packets that networks
can deliver, sends packets to and accepts packets from the network layer, manages
flow control, andbecause it is meant to provide error-free data transmission
handles retransmission of dropped or garbled packets as well as acknowledgement
of all packets that arrive. In the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)
communication model, TCP covers parts of Layer 4, the Transport Layer, and parts
of Layer 5
It came to exists from 1972

 ETHERNET

Ethernet is the most widely installed local area network (LAN) technology.
Ethernet is a link layer protocol in the TCP/IP stack, describing how networked
devices can format data for transmission to other network devices on the same
network segment, and how to put that data out on the network connection. It
touches both Layer 1 (the physical layer) and Layer 2 (the data link layer) on
the OSI network protocol model. Ethernet defines two units of transmission,
packet and frame. The frame includes not just the "payload" of data being
transmitted but also addressing information identifying the physical "Media
Access Control" (MAC) addresses of both sender and receiver, VLAN tagging
and quality of service information, and error-correction information to detect
problems in transmission. Each frame is wrapped in a packet, which affixes
several bytes of information used in establishing the connection and marking
where the frame starts
Ethernet was originally developed by Xerox in the 1970s. Ethernet was initially
designed to run over coaxial cables, but a typical Ethernet LAN now uses special
grades of twisted pair cables, or fiber optical cabling. .

 INTERNET

In 1982 the internet is introduced to the world

A network of networks, joining many government, university
and private computers together and providing an infrastructure
for the use of E-mail, bulletin boards, file archives, hypertext
documents, databases and other computational resources

The vast collection of computer networks which form and act

as a single huge network for transport of data and messages
across distances which can be anywhere from the same office
to anywhere in the world
INTERNET
 WWW(WORLD WIDE WEB)

The World Wide Web is the universe of network-accessible information, an

embodiment of human knowledge."
The Web, as it's commonly known, is often confused with the internet. Although the
two are intricately connected, they are different things. The internet is, as its name
implies, a network -- a vast, global network that incorporates a multitude of lesser
networks. As such, the internet consists of supporting infrastructure and other
technologies. In contrast, the Web is a communications model that, through HTTP,
enables the exchange of information over the internet.
