  1. Chapter 1: Introduction to Web Applications. This chapter gives an overview of the Internet, and where the World Wide Web fits in. It then outlines the nature of basic Web Applications.

  2. The Inter-network is a big network of networks.

  3. The five-layer networking model for the internet.

  4. Routers direct packets among different networks based upon IP addresses. • Some IP features: Flow Control, Time To Live (TTL). • No delivery guarantee at this layer.

  5. Transport Layer -- End-to-End Service • Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) -- Divides data into packets, verifies arrival on the other end, puts packets back together. TCP connections between two computers called sockets. • User Datagram Protocol (UDP) -- No guarantee of delivery, often single packet transmission, used for Domain Name Service.

  6. Two useful application layer services on the Web. • Domain Name Service (DNS) -- Uses UDP for transport. • Virtual Hosting -- Maps Domain Names onto folders on the Web server.

  7. The structure of a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) • How: The application layer protocol. Example: Browsers and Web servers use http (hypertext transfer protocol) • Where: The named address of the resource -- Translated to IP address for internet travel, then used to locate the virtual space (folder) on the Web server. • What: Path to specific resource in that folder.

  8. The what part of a URL identifies a particular resource within the folder assigned to the domain name (where part of URL). • The request for a directory loads a default file in that directory. If there is no default file, then the directory contents may be listed. • The request for a file loads that file.

  9. A basic HTTP transaction.

  10. A more involved HTTP transaction -- A Web application.

  11. HTTP GET -- Data in query string sent in packet header HTTP POST -- Data is part of message payload.

  12. Various technologies for Web applications.
