ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses the Internet as an operational entity, anchored in servers and cables in real space and operated by software in both real and virtual spaces. Internet service providers (ISPs) are companies which operate the transmissions or the flows over the Internet, either that which do so along the Internet backbones. The term operating systems has been assigned to software packages which provide an interface between hardware components on the one hand, and dedicated software for work with computers and their management, on the other. These operation systems for smartphones have attempted to present users with a use experience similar to that of Internet use on Personal Computers(PCs), thus turning the very use of the Internet completely mobile. The first popular browser at the time was Netscape, and Microsoft introduced in 1995 its Microsoft Network (MSN) package as an umbrella for a variety of information and communication services for individual users of the Internet.
