INTRODUCTION
The purpose of a computer communications network is to allow moving information
from one point to another inside the network. The information could be stored on a device, such
as a personal computer in the network , it could be generated live outside the network, such as
speech, or could be generated by a process on another piece of information, such as automatic
sales transactions at the end of a business day. The device does not necessarily have to be a
computer; it could be a hard disk, a camera or even a printer on the network. Due to a large
variety of information to be moved, and due to the fact that each type of information has its own
conditions for intelligibility, the computer network has evolved into a highly complex system.
Specialized knowledge from many areas of science and engineering goes into the design of
networks. It is practically impossible for a single area of science or engineering to be entirely
responsible for the design of all the components. Therefore, a study of computer networks
branches into many areas as we go up from fundamentals to the advanced levels.
MOBILE COMPUTING
DEFINITION
Mobile computing means using a computing device while in transit. Mobile computing
implies wireless transmission, but wireless transmission does not necessarily imply mobile
computing. Fixed wireless applications use satellites, radio systems and lasers to transmit
between permanent objects such as buildings and towers.
SPECIFIACTION, SERVICES AND FREQUENCIES OF MOBILE
COMPUTING
SPECIFICATION
The S60 5th Edition has a lot of goodness in technology. It has 3.5-inch TFT and 16
million color. The widescreen also about mHD It has 640×360 pixels and it use the Nokia
Battery BP-4L that is about 1500 mAh. The memory is about up to 48GB which is 32GB
Internal Memory and 16GB Micro SD Expansion Slot. The main camera use the Carl Zeiss
Tessar Lens and it is about 5MP (2584 x 1938). The format of the picture is JPEG/EXIF (16.7
Million / 24-bit color) and the video capture is MPEG-4 VGA, 640×480 at 30fps. The camera
aperture is about F2.8 and the focal length is 5.4mm. This technology use Dual LED Camera for
the flash.
SERVICES
For its service, it has WLAN IEEE 802.11 b/g with UPnP support, Micro USB Connector
plus 3.5 mm stereo headphone plug. It also has TV-Out Support, data transfer via Bluetooth 2.0,
A-GPS and Internet surfing
FREQUENCIES
Its frequencies are up to 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 and 3G Network
HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100.
INTERNET TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICES
VoIP
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a general term for a family of transmission
technologies for delivery of voice communications over IP (internet protocol) networks such as
the Internet or other packet-switched networks. Other terms frequently encountered and
synonymous with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, voice over broadband (VoBB),
broadband telephony, and broadband phone. Example of VoIP adapter setup in residential
network.
BLOG
A blog is basically a type of website, like a forum or a social bookmarking site. As such it
is defined by the technical aspects and features around it, and not by the content published inside
it. Example of a blog
TYPES OF NETWORK
PAN
A personal area network (PAN) is a computer network used for communication among
computer devices (including telephones and personal digital assistants) close to one's person. The
devices may or may not belong to the person in question. The reach of a PAN is typically a few
meters. PANs can be used for communication among the personal devices themselves
(intrapersonal communication), or for connecting to a higher level network and the Internet.
Personal area networks may be wired with computer buses such as USB and FireWire.
VPN
A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication

infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or individual users with secure
access to their organization's network. A virtual private network can be contrasted with an
expensive system of owned or leased lines that can only be used by one organization. The goal of
a VPN is to provide the organization with the same capabilities, but at a much lower cost.
WLAN
A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a wireless local area network that links two or more
computers or devices using spread-spectrum or OFDM modulation technology based to enable
communication between devices in a limited area. This gives users the mobility to move around
within a broad coverage area and still be connected to the network.
WIMAX
WiMAX, meaning Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a

telecommunications technology that provides wireless transmission of data using a variety of
transmission modes, from point-to-multipoint links to portable and fully mobile internet access.
The technology provides up to 3 Mbit/s broadband speed without the need for cables. The
technology is based on the IEEE 802.16 standard (also called Broadband Wireless Access). The
name "WiMAX" was created by the WiMAX Forum, which was formed in June 2001 to
promote conformity and interoperability of the standard. The forum describes WiMAX as "a
standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an
alternative to cable and DSL"
CONCLUSION
We can conclude that computer networks and communication makes our life easier
to communicate with each other and the world using the computer.
