Our business uses Intranet in ways of business to employee's. We like to keep track of our employe's pay roll and when they work. We use the internet in ways to keep track of all that and the intranet diagram shows how when a employe goes in to communicate with us it first has to get through the firewall which basicly is checking if they are a employe. Then the client can check there schedule and anything else they need.

In this image the computer or what we like to call the CPU use's a whole different language than us humans. Instead of talking with words the computer use's machine language which is basicly number's or one's and zero's. We like to call these numbers bits. One character letter is is 8 bytes. Control Unit which is the CPU sends messages or word frases when it sends. It becomes output technology which then people can read.

Blog Entry 4.3



In this image it is showing how a shared network system works. You first have to start out with a client who has information that needs to be sent through a server to the router. When it goes to the router it is then broke up into numbers. When it's broke up into numbers which also is IP address, the router then puts those numbers into packets to send to the other router. This is called the concurrent data transmission. When the packets of data are sent to the the other router they may not all come in the exact order they were sent. The router then has to go trough a process called Packet-Switching Technology, which puts the packets in the right order.

Summary:
         In this Analysis it is talking about how the world has become so "flat" how the world has gone so global in the automotive industry. It used to be where the cars we drive today were made in the country you live in. Now companies such as Ford have industries here in the United states also in other country like Asia and India. This so no matter the time of day there always cars going down the assembly line it makes for a more efficient way of putting cars on the lot and on the roads.
