Understanding the Internet: A Global Network

The Internet is a global network of interconnected computers that any device can join. It functions as a Wide Area Network (WAN), which is essentially a series of connected Local Area Networks (LANs).

Data packets are transmitted between computers using protocols that govern how information is sent and received.

Key Internet Technologies and Services

Technologies and services available over the Internet include:

• Web Pages: HTML documents presenting images, sound, and text, accessed via a web browser.
• Web Applications: Software accessed through a web browser.
• Native Applications: Applications developed for specific devices (e.g., smartphones), accessible without a browser.
• Email: Electronic mail communication.

Data Project Management: A Comprehensive Guide

Goal Setting: The Foundation of Project Planning

Inserting Tables into Slides

In the Insert Object dialog box, click the Create From File option and click Browse to locate and choose the document or spreadsheet that contains the table. By default, the presentation software will insert the table. When you click OK, the entire document or spreadsheet is imported to your slide. Double-click the inserted text to remove extra text if the document contains more than the table. If you check the Link checkbox while inserting, after you update the table in the document or spreadsheet, then right click on the imported table in the presentation software, and select the option Update Link, the embedded table gets updated automatically. Drag and drop the table on the slide to position it.

10.1 Pivot tables

What is a pivot table? It is one of the most powerful tools in Excel. They are also called “dynamic” because the data on them can be changed by rearranging or changing the position of the column and row headers in an easy and quick way.

The use of a dynamic table is to obtain information summaries from our data grid in order to be able to quickly analyze big volumes of information. These type of tables can be used in situations such as:

• When you have a table with rows that have different date and you need to organize the information by time periods (month, semester, etc.)
• When you need to change the arrangement in the rows or column cells to show different perspectives from the same data set.

Business Values of Telecom Standardization for Operators

1. Multiple sources of supply (decrease risk of sole supplier dependencies/lock-in, improve choice at competitive prices).
2. Interoperability, e.g., multi-vendor networks, service interop.
3. Assurance that investment in technology should not abruptly change or fail.

Business Values of Telecom Standardization for Vendors

1. Network vendors can sell to all service operators, freed from vendor-specific R&D.
2. Reduce customization.
3. Build reputation / customer confidence - strong standards brand.
4. Larger markets from wide adoption, greater economies of scale.

Types of Standards Bodies

1. Accredited
2. Treaty-based
3. Partnerships
