Lyrics-Rise(Ghost In The Shell)

I'm a soldier, znachit ya

Ya stoyu na dvukh kontsakh ognya
Ogibaya virazhi, obgonyaya smyert' i zhizn'

*Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die

Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall

I'm a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
witnessing more than I can compute

pray myself we don't forget
lies, betrayed and the oppressed
please give me the strength to be the truth

people facing the fire together
if we don't, we'll lose all we have found

Teacher's Day

     Today, at my school, we celebrated Teacher's Day(Indonesia). There was a ceremony, followed by Mini Idol Teacher(Guru Idola Cilik). Some of the participants acted as teachers and gave a 10 minute lesson. We started our studies at 10 and went home at 1.10. It was a fun day.
     Teacher's Day is the day we celebrate our teacher's contribution and all they've done for us. We can show our appreciation by many ways:making cards (a bit childish), being a less burden (not being very naughty), or even a simple thank you. Personally, my teachers have always guided me and even some, I sometimes consider them my friend (a bit disrespectful, I guess). But, they've always been helped me, and for that, I thank them from the bottom of my heart.

Lyrics-Pencinta Wanita

     A great song, Doesn't exactly show what I feel, but sometimes I feel like it.

 

Ku temukan dalam pencarian
Cinta sejati untuk hidupku
Kurang lebih yang seperti dia
Ku harap dalam cintaku

Ku tak mau menjanjikannya
Pasti bahagia bila denganku
Biar dia rasakan sendiri
Betapa gilanya cintaku

(Chorus)
Aku memang pencinta wanita
Namun ku bukan buaya
Yang setia pada seribu gadis
Ku hanya mencintai dia

Aku memang pencinta wanita
Yang lembut seperti dia
Ini saat ku akhiri semua
Pencarian dalam hidup
Dan cintaku ternyata
Yang ku mau hanyalah dia

Ku tak mau menjanjikannya (menjanjikannya)
Pasti bahagia bila denganku (denganku)
Biar dia rasakan sendiri
Betapa gilanya cintaku

(Chorus)
Aku memang pencinta wanita
Namun ku bukan buaya
Yang setia pada seribu gadis
Ku hanya mencintai dia

Aku memang pencinta wanita
Yang lembut seperti dia
Ini saat ku akhiri semua
Pencarian dalam hidup
Dan cintaku ternyata
Yang ku mau hanyalah dia

Aku memang pencinta wanita
Namun ku bukan buaya
Yang setia pada seribu gadis
Ku hanya mencintai aku
Aku memang pencinta wanita
Namun ku bukan buaya
Yang setia pada seribu gadis
Ku hanya mencintai dia

Aku memang pencinta wanita
Yang lembut seperti dia
Ini saat ku akhiri semua
Pencarian dalam hidup
Dan cintaku ternyata
Yang ku mau hanyalah dia

Lyrics-Sedari Dulu

     A nice song:

Hatiku berharap
Mungkin engkau kan berubah
Bisa mencintai aku
Seperti hatiku padamu

Hujan badai kan kutempuh
Bintang dilangit kan kuraih
Bila harus ku kan merayu
Untuk cintamu bagiku

Cintamu tlah menjadi candu
Cintamu tlah membuatku membisu
Cintamu ohh seindah lagu
Membuatku tak bisa berpaling darimu

Kau adalah belahan jiwa
Kutahu itu sayang sedari dulu
Kau cinta yang hembuskan aku
Surga dunia disepanjang nafasku
Kau adalah belahan jiwa
Aku cinta kamu sedari dulu
Dan aku takkan berpaling darimu

Sayangku hanya kamu

Cintaku telah terlabuh
Berhenti selamanya dihatimu
Takkan kukayuh menjauh
Biar kurapatkan cintaku padamu

Cintamu tlah menjadi candu
Cintamu tlah membuatku membisu
Cintamu ohh seindah lagu
Hanya dirimu satu ohh cintaku

Great Day

     Had a great day today. Well, there were some difficulties, but nothing I could do about it. Had to do 2 tests in 90 minutes and rushed to a swimming pool. But after that, I got to hang out with some of my friends. Then I met an alumni. Had to do something. It was a really fun day.

Lyrics- Cari Jodoh

    A pretty desperate song:

Apa salahku apa salah ibuku
Hidupku dirundung pilu
Tak ada yang mau dan menginginkan aku
Tuk jadi pengobat pilu
Tuk jadi penawar rindu
Tuk jadi kekasih hatiku

*
Timur ke barat selatan ke utara
Tak juga aku berjumpa
Dari musim duren hingga musim rambutan
Tak kunjung aku dapatkan
Tak jua aku temukan
Oh tuhan inikah cobaan

**
Ibu-ibu bapak-bapak
Siapa yang punya anak
Bilang aku aku yang tengah malu
Sama teman-temanku
Karna cuma diriku yang tak laku-laku

***
Pengumuman-pengumuman
Siapa yang mau bantu
Tolong aku kasihani aku
Tolong carikan diriku kekasih hatiku
Siapa yang mau

Back to *, **, ***

Ibu bapak punya anak
Bilang-bilang aku aku yang tengah malu
Sama teman-temanku
Karna cuma diriku yang tak laku-laku

Back to ***

 I'll translate later on.

Resident Evil 4-Chapter 2

     The continuation of last time. Leon wakes up from last time and continues on. The villagers now can pop their heads and comes out parasites(Las Plagas) with blades. He finds a key to the church and heads on. In his way, he encounters an El Gigante. After defeating it, he continues and reaches the church. He solves the puzzle in there to open the way to Ashley. After getting to her, they trid to escape but meets the leader of "this fine,religious community." His name is Osmund Saddler and he isthe leader of their group, the Los Illuminados. Leon and Ashley escapes and hurries on to the extraction point.
     They continue and get chased by a mob and take refuge in a cabin. Luis is there and together, they defend the cabin. After a while, the villagers stop their attack. Luis leaves to get something. They leave for the extraction point. There are 2 ways, through an El Gigante or the Bella Sisters. The Bella Sisters are the women, faster versions of Dr. Salvador. Whichever way the player goes, they reach a locked gate. Only with Mendez sight will it open. They take a gondola and reach The Shed Of Enlightenment. There, Leon fights and defeats Mendez. He takes his eyes( I think one of them is fake) and goes to the gate. They use his eye on the retical scanner on continue. A mob chases them and they get stuck in a castle. End of Chapter 2.

Resident Evil 4-Chapter 1

     SPOILERS ALERT!

     This is the story from the Resident Evil 4 game. Leon S. Kennedy, a government agent and survivor of the Racoon City Incident, is sent to get the president's daughter back. According to an anomynous tip, she has been spotted in a remote village. The villagers are hostile and soon, Leon faces hordes of them, including a chainsaw maniac whose attack will kill you instantly(Dr. Salvador). Fortunately, the church bell rang. He then continued on and finds an ex-cop and researcher, Luis Sera. But then, he was attacked and captured by the village chief, Bitorez Mendez. Then they injected him with something. He then wakes up, meets a merchant and continues on.He then reaches a house where he was attacked by Bitorez, but saved by a woman in red.After that, he continues on and reaches the church where Ashley is being held, but it is locked so he goes further and fights a monster(Del Lago) in a lake. When he crosses the lake, he passes out.

     That's all for now. Chapter 2 later on.

Yesterday

    Right, I forgot to write this yesterday. I joined a math competition. Didn't do so well. Oh well.

Resident Evil 4

     Right, actually I already finished the main game. Bought it a few days ago. I'll write the story later on. I started The Mercenaries Mode. Quite hard.  Also tried a mode called Separate Ways. Finished it as well. Well, that's all I'll write for now. More on the main story next time.

New Games

   Right, I bought new games, Resident Evil 4 and Star Ocean:Till The End Of Time. I already started on RE4, so I'll be writing about it in the future.

Mid Terms, 5th Day

     Well actually, it was 2 days ago. I'm just writing about it. It was Math and TIK(Teknologi Informasi Komunikasi or Information Communication Technology). Not much problem with Math, just not careful. Beside that, nothing else.

Mid Terms, 4th Day

     Right, today was Indonesia and Arts. Nothing interesting during Indonesia, but there was a big problem in Arts. It was the wrong materials. In the previous day, a teacher came up to me and asked what grade those questions were supposed to be for. After taking a quick glimpse at the book, me and the teacher thought it was for Grade 9. Turns out, it's for Grade 7. So I might be responsible for the whole of Grade 9's Arts grades.

Mid Terms, 3rd Day

     Third day, English and PLKJ(Pendidikan Lingkungan Kehidupan Jakarta or Jakarta.Environment Education). The pictures in English weren't clear, so it was hard. Beside that, nothing else interesting.

Mid Terms, 2nd Day

     Second day of mid terms. Today was Social Studies and Civics. Social Studies was a bit hard, but Civics was quite easy. Fortunately, the teacher who was watching over during Social Studies was not so strict, so cooperation easy.

Mid Terms, 1st Day

    First day during my mid term exams. Science and Religion. Science was a little bit hard, but Religon wasn't. I have no idea why I help my classmates. I rarely get benefits out of it and it's not exactly the right thing to do. Well, in Religion, there was a slight problem. There were 2 no. 47, so it wasn't known whether there's 51 or 50 questions.
    Well, that's about it. I'll write more about the other mid tests.

Resident Evil 4: Afterlife

SPOILERS ALERT!

    I'm writing the storyline as well, so read at yor own discretion.

    There's a lot of action, cool fighting and according to my brother(and Wikipedia) there's the Axeman. From what I know, that's a boss in one of the Resident Evil games. Sorry if I'm wrong.Anyways, it took elements from the games, notably Resident Evil 5 when Wesker battles Chris and Claire(Sheva in the game), my favorite. Well, I don,t have much time, so I'll copy paste from Wikipedia. Credits goes to it and sorry.

After the events of Resident Evil: Extinction, the Alice clones (Milla Jovovich) attempt to kill Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) at his base in Japan. All present clones are killed in an explosion, as Wesker escapes in an aircraft. The original Alice ambushes him, but Wesker injects her with a serum that neutralizes the T-virus in her system, eliminating her superhuman powers and making her human again. He reveals that his T-Virus powers have surpassed her own, but before he can kill her, the aircraft crashes and Alice emerges from the wreckage.
Six months later, Alice follows a repeating emergency broadcast from a survivors' safe haven known as "Arcadia" in Alaska. After many fruitless months searching for Arcadia and finding no survivors along the way, including her friends Claire Redfield (Ali Larter) and K-Mart (Spencer Locke), Alice begins to lose hope, believing herself to be the last surviving human on the planet. Stopping on an abandoned beach, Alice finds the helicopter taken by Claire and the others when they and Alice parted ways. A crazed Claire, under the influence of an Umbrella Corporation device attached to her chest, attacks her. Alice removes the device, finding that it has damaged Claire's memory, which she slowly regains.
Flying a two-person plane, they enter the ruins of Los Angeles and find a small group of survivors, led by Luther West (Boris Kodjoe) living in a maximum security prison, surrounded by the undead. Alice crash lands the plane on the roof of the prison and learn that Arcadia is not a fixed place but actually a cargo tanker traveling along the coast. Since the plane cannot take more than two, Alice and the survivors try to figure out a means to make it to Arcadia together. The survivors have been keeping watch on a prisoner, Chris (Wentworth Miller), whom they found locked in a maximum security cell when they arrived. He says that he is a soldier who fought the early outbreak, but was locked up by prisoners as a cruel joke when the mission failed and knows a way to reach the coast, and thereby Arcadia, but will not reveal it unless he is released.
They do not believe him, and keep him locked up until the undead manage to tunnel through the sewer ways and up into the prison, and a giant axe wielding Nemesis monster starts to break down the front gate; Alice and survivors are out of time to find a means to reach Arcadia so they decide to free Chris and use his escape route. He recognizes Claire and reveals himself as her brother, though she does not remember him. Chris' proposed method, a stored military vehicle, is legitimate, but the vehicle is not operational and they are left with no other option but to use the tunnel to escape through the sewers, and storm drains which empty at the coast. The group fights their way out — Alice, Claire, and Chris manage to escape into the sewers.
They continue to Arcadia, finding the ship completely functional, but abandoned. Exploring its inner depths, they realize that it is a trap set by Umbrella to lure survivors to the ship to conduct experiments on them. Claire now remembers what happened to her group when they arrived to Alaska: Umbrella ambushed their group when they landed on the beach, attaching the devices to them, though she managed to escape. They release the survivors, among them K-Mart, and Alice continues deeper into the ship, finding escape helicopters and a purging bomb. Deeper inward, she finds Wesker, who explains the price of his survival, is a war within himself for control against the T-Virus. By assimilating Alice, the only individual to bond successfully with the T-virus, he might be able to gain full mastery of it. At this point the crew of the ship had abandoned Wesker, terrified by his cannibalism.
Chris, Claire, and Alice battle the super-powered Wesker and seemingly kill him with help from a recovered K-Mart. Wesker does not die, but regenerate and escapes on a helicopter. He activates the purge bomb on the Arcadia in attempt to destroy the ship and kill the remaining survivors. Anticipating his actions Alice had hidden the bomb on board the helicopter, which is destroyed by the explosion. Alice, Claire, and Chris watch the destruction from the deck of the Arcadia.
Alice resolves to turn Arcadia into a real safe haven and broadcasts its message for any other survivors. As Claire, Chris, and Alice decide how to proceed with all the survivors, they see an approaching Umbrella assault fleet led by Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory), who is under the control of the same Umbrella device used on Claire.

That Jill thing is really a clip hanger. Oh well, hope they have a Resident Evil 5.

Network Topology 2

     My second part. Since I need 5, but I only got 3 in the previous post due to not enough time, I'll add at least 2 more. Here they are.

4. Mesh Networking

Mesh networking is a type of networking wherein each node in the network may act as an independent router, regardless of whether it is connected to another network or not. It allows for continuous connections and reconfiguration around broken or blocked paths by “hopping” from node to node until the destination is reached.To the left is a partial mesh. There's also another one called a fully connected network.

A fully connected network is a communication network in which each of the nodes is connected to each other. A fully connected network doesn't need to use switching nor broadcasting. However, its major disadvantage is that the number of connections grows quadratically with the number of nodes, per formula

and so it is extremely impractical for large networks. A two-node network, one of the most common network types, is technically a fully connected network.

5. Tree

Also known as a hierarchical network.
The type of network topology in which a central 'root' node (the top level of the hierarchy) is connected to one or more other nodes that are one level lower in the hierarchy (i.e., the second level) with a point-to-point link between each of the second level nodes and the top level central 'root' node, while each of the second level nodes that are connected to the top level central 'root' node will also have one or more other nodes that are one level lower in the hierarchy (i.e., the third level) connected to it, also with a point-to-point link, the top level central 'root' node being the only node that has no other node above it in the hierarchy (The hierarchy of the tree is symmetrical.) Each node in the network having a specific fixed number, of nodes connected to it at the next lower level in the hierarchy, the number, being referred to as the 'branching factor' of the hierarchical tree.This tree has individual peripheral nodes.
     1.) A network that is based upon the physical hierarchical topology must have at least three levels in the hierarchy of the tree, since a network with a central 'root' node and only one hierarchical level below it would exhibit the physical topology of a star.
     2.) A network that is based upon the physical hierarchical topology and with a branching factor of 1 would be classified as a physical linear topology.
     3.) The branching factor, f, is independent of the total number of nodes in the network and, therefore, if the nodes in the network require ports for connection to other nodes the total number of ports per node may be kept low even though the total number of nodes is large – this makes the effect of the cost of adding ports to each node totally dependent upon the branching factor and may therefore be kept as low as required without any effect upon the total number of nodes that are possible.
     4.) The total number of point-to-point links in a network that is based upon the physical hierarchical topology will be one less than the total number of nodes in the network.
     5.) If the nodes in a network that is based upon the physical hierarchical topology are required to perform any processing upon the data that is transmitted between nodes in the network, the nodes that are at higher levels in the hierarchy will be required to perform more processing operations on behalf of other nodes than the nodes that are lower in the hierarchy. Such a type of network topology is very useful and highly recommended.
6. Peer-to-peer
 Unfortunately, I don't really understand about this. I only have a vague understanding. In short, it's 2 computers connected, sharing resources. So, both PC are both server and client. That's as far as I understand. Sorry if I'm wrong.
       Well, that's that. I had previoisly mentioned that I would post about anime, manga. But due to most of it being long, it'll take me a bit more time to write about it.

Network Topology 1

     My next assignment, regarding network topology. I might make an Indonesian version. Anyway, here it is.

Network topology is the layout pattern of interconnections of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of   a computer network. The types of network topology:

• Bus topology
• Star topology
• Ring topology
• Tree topology
• Mesh topology

1. Bus Topology

A bus network topology is a network architecture in which a set of clients are connected via a shared communications line, called a bus.

       Advantages

• Easy to implement and extend.
• Easy to install.
• Well-suited for temporary or small networks not requiring high speeds (quick setup), resulting in faster networks.
• Cheaper than other topologies.
• Cost effective; only a single cable is used.
• Easy identification of cable faults.
• Reduced weight due to fewer wires.

       Disadvantages

• Limited cable length and number of stations.
• If there is a problem with the cable, the entire network breaks down.
• Maintenance costs may be higher in the long run.
• Performance degrades as additional computers are added or on heavy traffic (shared bandwidth).
• Proper termination is required (loop must be in closed path).
• Significant Capacitive Load (each bus transaction must be able to stretch to most distant link).
• It works best with limited number of nodes.
• Slower data transfer rate than other topologies.
• Only one packet can remain on the bus during one clock pulse.

2.Ring Network

A ring network is a network topology in which each node connects to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node - a ring. Data travels from node to node, with each node along the way handling every packet.

Advantages

• Very orderly network where every device has access to the token and the opportunity to transmit
• Performs better than a bus topology under heavy network load
• Does not require network server to manage the connectivity between the computers

       Disadvantages

• One malfunctioning workstation or bad port in the MAU can create problems for the entire network
• Moves, adds and changes of devices can affect the network
• Network adapter cards and MAU's are much more expensive than Ethernet cards and hubs
• Much slower than an Ethernet network under normal load

3. Star Network

Star networks are one of the most common computer network topologies. In its simplest form, a star network consists of one central switch, hub or computer, which acts as a conduit to transmit messages. Thus, the hub and leaf nodes, and the transmission lines between them, form a graph with the topology of a star.

Advantages

• Better performance: star topology prevents the passing of data packets through an excessive number of nodes. At most, 3 devices and 2 links are involved in any communication between any two devices. Although this topology places a huge overhead on the central hub, with adequate capacity, the hub can handle very high utilization by one device without affecting others.
• Isolation of devices: Each device is inherently isolated by the link that connects it to the hub. This makes the isolation of individual devices straightforward and amounts to disconnecting each device from the others. This isolation also prevents any non-centralized failure from affecting the network.
• Benefits from centralization: As the central hub is the bottleneck, increasing its capacity, or connecting additional devices to it, increases the size of the network very easily. Centralization also allows the inspection of traffic through the network. This facilitates analysis of the traffic and detection of suspicious behavior.
• Simplicity: This topology is easy to understand, establish, and navigate. Its simplicity obviates the need for complex routing or message passing protocols. Also, as noted earlier, the isolation and centralization it allows simplify fault detection, as each link or device can be probed individually.
• Easy to install and wire.
• Easy to detect faults and to remove parts.
• No disruptions to the network when connecting or removing devices.
  
  

  Disadvantages

• high dependence of the system on the functioning of the central hub
• failure of the central hub renders the network inoperable
• The performance and scalability of the network depends on the capabilities of the hub
• Network size is limited by the number of connections that can be made to the hub
• other nodes may see a performance drop if traffic to another node occupies a significant portion of the central node's processing capability or throughput.
• wiring up of the system can be very complex and expensive.

More later on.

Jaringan Komputer

Model Jaringan Komputer

     Still the same thing. But I realize there's no definition in the previous article. So I've got another one. Again the credit goes to Faisal Akib.
     Jaringan komputer dapat diartikan sebagai sebuah rangkaian dua atau lebih komputer. Komputer-komputer ini akan dihubungkan satu sama lain dengan sebuah sistem komunikasi. Dengan jaringan komputer ini dimungkinkan bagi setiap komputer yang terjaring di dalamnya dapat saling tukar-menukar data, program, dan sumber daya komputer lainnya seperti media penyimpanan, printer, dan lain-lain. Jaringan komputer yang menghubungkan komputer-komputer yang berada pada lokasi berbeda dapat juga dimanfaatkan untuk mengirim surat elektronik (e-mail), mengirim file data (upload) dan mengambil file data dari tempat lain (download), dan berbagai kegiatan akses informasi pada lokasi yang terpisah.
     Tujuan utama dari sebuah jaringan komputer adalah sharing resource (baca: sumber daya), dimana sebuah komputer dapat memanfaatkan sumber daya yang dimiliki komputer lain yang berada dalam jaringan yang sama.
     Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi data dan jaringan komputer dewasa ini sudah tidak terbatas lagi hanya pada komputer. Berbagai perangkat teknologi komunikasi yang hadir saat ini berkembang mengikuti perkembangan teknologi komputer, banyak diantaranya mengintegrasikan perangkat komputer seperti mikroprosesor, memori, display, storage, dan teknologi komunikasi ke dalamnya padahal dulunya teknologi ini dikembangkan untuk komputer yang dapat kita temui saat ini sudah ikut digunakan pada teknologi jaringan komputer.
Suatu jaringan komputer terdiri atas:

• minimal dua buah komputer
• kartu jaringan (network interface card / NIC) pada setiap komputer
• medium koneksi, yang menghubungkan kartu jaringan satu komputer ke komputer lainnya, biasa disebut sebagai medium transmisi data, bisa berupa kabel maupun nirkabel atau tanpa-kabel (wireless seperti radio, microwave, satelit, dsb).
• perangkat lunak sistem operasi jaringan (network operating system software / NOSS) yang berfungsi untuk melakukan pengelolaan sistem jaringan, misalnya: Microsoft Windows 2000 server, Microsoft Windows NT, Novell Netware, Linux, dan sebagainya.
• peralatan interkoneksi seperti Hub, Bridge, Switch, Router, Gateway, apabila jaringan yang dibentuk semakin luas jangkauannya.

     Okay, so in english this means that 2 or more computers and hardwares(such as printer, scanner,etc.) are connected. This allows them to send and receive data, e-mail, and basically upload download. Of course, you need certain things.
     That's all. The above text(Indonesian) was made by Faisal Akib, so thanks again to him.

Tugas TIK

     I've got an assignment where I have to write a blog about jarinagn internet. Since I don't know the english translation of it, I'm going to do it in Indonesia. This was made by Faisal Akib. Thank you and sorry for copy-pasting.
     Internet adalah jaringan komputer yang bisa dikategorikan sebagai WAN, menghubungkan berjuta komputer diseluruh dunia, tanpa batas negara, dimana setiap orang yang memiliki komputer dapat bergabung ke dalam jaringan ini hanya dengan melakukan koneksi ke penyedia layanan internet (internet service provider / ISP) seperti Telkom Speedy, atau IndosatNet. Internet dapat diterjemahkan sebagai international networking (jaringan internasional), karena menghubungkan komputer secara internasional, atau sebagai internetworking (jaringan antar jaringan) karena menghubungkan berjuta jaringan diseluruh dunia.
     Internet dimulai ketika Departemen Pertahanan Amerika Serikat (Department of Defense USA) membangun sebuah jaringan komputer di tahun 1969, yang diberi nama ARPANET (Advanced Research Project Agency NETwork) dengan tujuan untuk menghubungkan beberapa komputer yang berada dibeberapa universitas melakukan riset militer, terutama untuk membangun jaringan komunikasi komputer yang mampu bertahan terhadap serangan nuklir. Jaringan ini berkembang terus, semakin banyak komputer yang terlibat, dan riset disisi pengembangan perangkat lunak juga berkembang. Pada bulan Mei tahun 1974, Vinton G.Cerf dari Stanford University dan Robert E.Kahn dari Departemen Pertahanan USA, mempublikasi sebuah paper di IEEE Transaction on Communication berjudul “A Protocol for Packet Network Intercommunication”, konsep ini kemudian populer sebagai protokol TCP/IP, ketika ARPANET meng-adopsi protokol menjadi protokol standard untuk ARPANET pada tahun 1983. Pihak universitas terutama University of California at Berkeley kemudian membangun sistem operasi Berkeley Software Distribution Unix) atau BSD UNIX (dikenal dengan nama Free BSD Unix) dan pihak departemen pertahanan membiayai Bolt Baranek dan Newman (BBN) untuk meng-implementasi protokol TCP/IP pada BSD Unix untuk diterapkan pada ARPANET, dengan demikian cikal-bakal internet terbentuk.
     Pada penghujung tahun 1983, jaringan ARPANET dibagi dua menjadi DARPANET (Defence ARPANET) dan MILNET (MILitary NETwork). Pada tahun 1985 dibentuklah jaringan NFSNET (National Science Foundation NETwork) untuk menghubungkan supercomputer yang ada diberbagai universitas di Amerika dan disambungkan dengan ARPANET. Jaringan NSFNET dikembangkan terus oleh periset perguruan tinggi. Pada tahun 1988 jaringan backbone internet ini hanya berkapasitas 56 Kbps. Walaupun pada tahun 1990 secara resmi ARPANET ditutup, namun jaringan internet yang telah terbentuk diteruskan oleh pihak universitas di Amerika dan memasukkan jaringan universitas di benua Amerika (Kanada dan Amerika Selatan) serta jaringan di Eropa menjadi bagian dari internet. Pada tahun 1992 jaringan backbone ditingkatkan ke T3 dengan kecepatan 45 Mbps, dan disekitar tahun 1995 ditingkatkan lagi menjadi OC-3 pada kecepatan 155 Mbps. Kini backbone internet berkecepatan tinggi dalam order Gbps.
     Topologi internet pada dasarnya adalah mesh-topology, menghubungkan banyak jenis jaringan melalui sistem packet-switching, kalaupun bisa dikatakan yang menjadi pusat-nya adalah beberapa NAP (Network Access Point) yang ada di San Fransisco (Pacific Bell), di Chicago (Ameritech), New Jersey (Sprint), dan Merit Access Exchange (MAE) di San Fransisco (MAE West) dan Washington, D.C (MAE East) yang ditangani oleh MFS Datanet.
     Walaupun tidak ada organisasi yang memiliki internet, namun ada banyak organisasi yang memelihara jaringan ini melalui penetapan standarisasi protokol, aturan-aturan, serta metoda akses. Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) menangani masalah-masalah teknis yang timbul di internet,  seperti masalah pada protokol, arsitektur dan pengoperasian internet. Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) menangani riset teknis, seperti sistem pengalamatan dan rekayasa lainnya. Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) mengatur pembagian alamat IP (IP#) ke berbagai negara dan organisasi. Internet Society (ISOC) menangani masalah administrasi dan struktur organisasi internet.
     Badan usaha komersil kemudian menyediakan layanan akses dengan menyediakan koneksi dari komputer pengguna ke internet, dan badan ini disebut sebagai penyedia akses internet atau ISP. Beberapa ISP terkenal di dunia adalah America On Line (AOL), Australia OnLine, CompuServe, GEnie, dan Prodigy. Di Indonesia ada TelkomNet, IndosatNet, Wasantara Net, InterNux, dan sebagainya. ISP menyediakan koneksi dial-up melalui modem-telepon, koneksi wireless melalui antena WLAN, atau koneksi ADSL melalui telepon. Protokol koneksi yang digunakan adalah SLIP (Serial Line Interface Protocol) atau PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol), dimana koneksi SLIP biasanya lebih lambat dari PPP.

GAMBAR: Koneksi ke Internet

     Secara logis jaringan internet dibagi kedalam beberapa domain, yang menurut standar IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) di-identifikasi melalui nomer IP 32 bit atau 4 angka biner yang dipisahkan dengan titik (seperti 192.168.10.25). Tipe domain standar antara lain:

• .com = organisasi komersil
• .edu  = institusi pendidikan di Amerika
• .ac    = institusi akademik
• .gov  = institusi pemerintah
• .mil   = organisasi militer
• .net   = penyedia akses jaringan
• .org   = organisasi non-profit

Disamping itu domain juga dibagi berdasarkan negara, misalnya:

• .au    =  Australia
• .ca    =  Kanada
• .id     =  Indonesia
• .jp     =  Jepang
• .my   =  Malaysia
• .sw   =   Swedia
• .th     =  Thailand

     Sebagai contoh Universitas Islam Negeri Alauddin memiliki alamat  uin-alauddin.ac.id sebagai salah satu institusi akademik di Indonesia, sebagai penyedia akses jaringan, Indosat memiliki kode alamat indosat.net.id, dan sebagainya.

The Vacation Coming To A Close

    Well, only two more days before school starts. Unfortunately, that means I can't sleep at 12, play games all day. What a shame. This also means I have to start doing homework, studying.
    During these two weeks, the only thing I do is play games. Not even going out.  I was planning to finish a game in two weeks. But instead, I switched games. Nothing achieved during two weeks.

Idul Fitri

    Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri.. Minal Aidzin Wal Faidzin.. Mohon maaf lahir dan batin. Semoga Allah swt. selalu memberkati kita semua.
    Woke up at 6.20. Got ready for prayers. Then me and my family went to the mosque to pray. Ended around 7.30.  I thought we were going to my aunt's house, but turns out we were the host. 2 of my aunts, an uncle and a cousin came over.
   I'm the youngest in my generation, so that means that most of my cousins are either already working or already have a child. My brother is an alumni of SMA 70, so there's something to talk about. I usually just listen in on what their talking about.
   We ate a bit, then talk. They stayed for around 1,5 hours. I had a good time.

Bored

      My second blog. Forgot to mention, this blog is going to be graded for my studies at school. Well anyways, just now I went to Poins Square to buy games. Bought some RPG. My blog wil most likely be about games. I'm also an anime and manga fan, so I'll also write about that.

First Blog

Hi, I'm Bryant and this is my first blog. Trying to set a picture on the background, really hard.
