Computer Networking

During this revolution, a company named Microsoft developed itself a role in the computer industry and released its own operating system. In 1995, Microsoft had released their first operating system, Windows 95 which became the standard system used on all computers within days. Microsoft soon dominated worldwide sales of computer operating systems by the end of the 1990’s. Upon the turn of the century, Microsoft also realized that the business had the potential to develop a greater role in the computer industry (Microsoft

Something that really struck out to me was the topic of networking. In Chapter 2, author, Don Raskin goes into depth about the importance of networking. What Raskin says about networking really makes a lot of sense because it is much easier for companies to make hiring decisions based on recommendations from a trusted source than hiring someone through the interviewing process. Employers can get an idea of who the interviewees are, but having people recommended to them makes their job way easier. Networking is something that I will definitely do to my fullest when I look for an internship/job. Getting to know many influential people that will help me better my career will really set me aside from others. Having as many connections as possible

MS-DOS, an operating system developed initially for IBM personal computers, became Microsoft’s first major success.

We are using windows 7 and 8 on all PC for our company, 2003 network servers. It comes a time for change and IPv6 is it, so we have to be prepared for it. Our company has about 100 personnel who needs network access. If we are in need more IP’s or the company grows, we might be in trouble. We need to quickly change to the latest version, from IPv4 to IPv6 in order to keep the network and company in a place for future growth.

When Windows XP was released in 2001, there were about 600 million computers used worldwide. Approximately 90% of them were running Windows but it was split between two code bases: Windows 95/98 (65%) and Windows NT/2000 (26%), according to IDC. One of the challenging task of Windows XP was to unite the Windows 9x and Windows NT code bases, and it eventually accomplished that.

Now twelve years after the October release of Windows XP, there is a crisis in the computer world. The operating system was very popular, and so widely adapted over the years that most companies are still using it to this very day (Wolpe, "Windows XP: One Year to Go but Is It Already Too Late to Move?”). For example a survey on what percentage of computers still run Windows XP was conducted on information technology departments across the United Kingdom (Wolpe, "End of XP Support: Why so Many CIOs Are Still Not Ready"). The results yielded a staggering 40 percent of desktop computers are still running XP, which is almost half of all of the corporate computer systems in the United Kingdom (Wolpe, "End of XP Support: Why so Many CIOs Are Still Not Ready")!

Microsoft is well known for their computer operation system and their great deals. An example of this is when Microsoft talked to IBM and got IBM to let Microsoft retain the license for MS-DOS. MS-DOS is an operation system IBM used for their new computers. With the MS-DOS Microsoft blossomed and made a fortune with this license. The year they retained MS-DOS was in 1981 and by the year 1990’s Microsoft sold more than 100 million copies (Gregg Pascal Zachary, 2015). In the year 1981 Tim Paterson, The creator of the MS-DOS quite Seattle’s Computers. The reason I included this person in this paper, is because he then got a job at Microsoft. He then started working on the DOS and the DOS 1.1 (.Net, 2006). A quote that I really thought interesting is “Life begins with a disk drive." At this case, it was true because with this one disk drive he achieved a lot of personal goals. Tim Paterson life didn’t end their he left Microsoft and went back to Seattle’s computers. In November 1983 Microsoft introduced window for 99$ and I put a picture I found from the original case It came in. this window came with a notepad, calendar, clock, card file, terminal application, file manager, a game of reverse, windows write, and window paint (Hollister, 2012). In 1985 Microsoft released windows versions 1.0. The window 1.0 was a DOS application that provided a weird graphic interface and windowing environment. They also released 6 more window application, an application

Windows XP- A consumer-oriented operating system distributed by the Microsoft Corporation as a successor for Windows 2000 Professional and Windows Me. Released on October 25, 2001, “XP” stands for “experience.” Stability issues (see Windows 2000 above) created by the Windows NT operating system were eventually resolved in the Windows XP operating system. Windows XP is still in wide use and hailed as one of the most popular operating systems of all time.

networked computers, routers and data links, network simulators are relatively fast and inexpensive. They allow engineers to test scenarios that might be particularly difficult or expensive to emulate using real hardware- for instance, simulating the effects of sudden bursts in the traffic or a Dos attack on a network service. Networking simulators are particularly useful in allowing designers to test new networking protocols or changed to existing protocols in a controlled and reproducible environment. Network simulators simulate and then analyze the effect of various parameters on the network performance.

Build up a database of potential, current and past customers and keep in touch with them on a regular basis (about every four to six months). Write personally to potential customers (this is known as a direct mail shot) and, if possible, address the letter to a specific person. Avoid long letters and use any excuse to make contact: special offers, low quarterly-rates, new facilities or services you have introduced and so forth. Include your brochure and name card and forward a calendar or sticker with your telephone number on it at Christmas time.

Local Area Network connects the computer hardware (i.e. Server, Printer, or Personal Computers) together withing localized area such as office building or home. The LAN is most often connected by wire (Martin, 2016). It is the smallest network generally (Frenzel, 2007).
