Explain Internet ConceptsIntroduction to Web-The web is a complex, international, cross platform, cross language, cross cultural mesh ofservers, clients, users, databases, and quite a few artificial intelligences all talking, working,searching, viewing, accessing, downloading together. Tim Berners-Lee, a computer specialistfrom the European Particle Physics Laboratory (CERN) in 1989, initially created the web. It is thelargest client/server system implemented to date. A client/server system is a very keen way ofdistributing information across information systems like a local area network (LAN), a wide areanetwork (WAN), or the Internet.
Working of client – server Architecture
A client/server system works like this: A computer (called a server) sits in some office somewherewith a bunch of files that people might want access to. This computer runs a software packagethat listens to requests over the networks i.e. LAN (Local Area Network) or WAN (Wide AreaNetwork). The "server software" will then access the server hardware, finds the requested file,send it back over the wires to the "client" who requested it, and then wait for another request fromthe same or another client. The "client" is actually a software program, like Netscape Navigator,that is being operated by a person who is the one who really wants to see the file.Process will look as follow:Protocol use for communication in between client and server is HTTP(HyperText TransferProtocol). HTTP is a "request-response" type protocol that specifies that a client will open aconnection to a server then send a request using a very specific format. The server will thenrespond and close the connection.These requests will be in some language and some format that the computer understandsnormally HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). Upon Request of client (Web browser) seversend a response (Web page), actually the web browser will display a document exactly the way itreceives it from the web server. For example, if the document requested is an image, the web
