Protocol In Internet

 Protocol

A protocol is a conversation or standard that regulates the operation of devices. It can be defined as the set of rules governing the syntax, semantics and synchronization of communications between hardware, software or both.


The primary protocol of internet is TCP/IP protocol which stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. TCP is meant for connection oriented transmission and IP is meant for connectionless transmission that represent logical address of the host machine, example http:// for accessing HTML documents, https:// for accessing 'Secure' HTML document.

Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
It is a protocol that is used to display information on the World Wide Web. Its main purpose is to provide a way to display and retrieve HTML pages. It is a request/response protocol between clients and server.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
IT is a client/server protocol that helps in transferring or exchanging files between client and server. It may be authenticated with user names and passwords. Transferring files from client node to server is known as uploading while transferring files from server to client node is known as downloading.

To access FTP server; user must be connected with either internet or intranet with an FTP client programs. FTP client programs is a software that is a software that is developed to move files back and forth between two computers over the internet or intranet.

What is an NFT? (Non Fungible Token) NFT's explained

Guys, You must have heard the words NFT or Blockchain recently. That is, Jack Dorsey is selling his first tweet, a lot of people are selling digital art paintings. These are being sold through NFTs. Here, I'm talking about the NFT, not NEFT that is used in banking transactions. Because NFT has emerged as an important word in the realm of technology.  It is quite unique but still not many people know about this. So, let's dive deep into the NFT or the Non Fungible Tokens. And if you enjoy reading this article then do share it with others. You might feel odd to talk about NFT, but if you look at Blockchain implementation of which was Cryptocurrency or Bitcoin, just like that NFT is it's second implementation. And the profit of this implementation is you can sell unique, expensive, valuable, rare and one of a kind things.  What's the meaning of one of a kind? Its pretty simple, there's only one piece of a certain thing existing in the world. It means, the value of a ...

Unraveling the Mysteries of Quantum Computers: A Glimpse into the Future of Computing

In the realm of computer science, the concept of quantum computing stands as a beacon of unprecedented potential. Unlike classical computers that rely on bits to process information in binary form (0s and 1s), quantum computers harness the mind-bending principles of  quantum mechanics to manipulate quantum bits or qubits. This revolutionary approach holds the promise of solving complex problems at speeds that traditional computers could only dream of. Let's delve deeper into the enigmatic world of quantum computing. Understanding Quantum Computer: At the heart of quantum computing lies the qubit, the fundamental unit of quantum information. Qubits possess the unique ability to exist in multiple states simultaneously, thanks to a phenomenon called superposition. This allows quantum computers to perform parallel computations on a scale unimaginable with classical computers. Furthermore, quantum computers leverage another principle of quantum mechanics known as entanglement. Entangle...
