From the Paper
"Even though the U.S. military is said to have started the use of wireless internet, it was Hedy Lamarr, a world-class beauty and a 1940s movie actress who was responsible for the origins of wireless Internet. Even though she did not have any technical training, Hedy Lamarr, being a gorgeous lady, was compelled by her husband to attend all his technical meetings held with the German military, which discussed a way to guide torpedoes by radio which could not be jammed. She wanted to join the National Inventors Council, which was set up to encourage Americans to contribute inventions for the coming war activity. It was during this time that the Council wanted actors and actresses to help sell War Bonds and she became a Hollywood actress to kiss any man who bought $50,000 in War Bonds. One day while she was playing four-hand piano with a musical hacker named George Antheil, she stopped and said "That's the answer to the torpedo problem: we are together, but apart. We are synchronized, but independent." She used the words 'frequency hopping' and they led to a patent U.S. Patent #2,292,387, called 'Secret Communications' wherein frequency hopping was done mechanically, by means of a piano roll tape having 88 holes to have control over both the radio on the sub and in the torpedo."

"Due to the growing need of information, and the trend toward globalization, and the massive potential of the Internet, wireless technology evolved itself to develop the Wireless Internet phenomenon. With numerous and potential applications of the Wireless Internet, the Wireless Internet industry has some key players in the business world. It is expected that this industry would not only grow exponentially in future, it is also growing rapidly now.
Executive Summary
Information increases productivity. The Internet was born. Globalization was an immediate running course. The wireless industry had to evolve to keep up with the worldwide growth in revenues and production. The wireless world may seem complicated; but in it, as in the familiar wired world, all that the Wireless Internet needs is three basic things to go online: a modem or some other hardware device, a service provider that would connect that hardware to the Internet, and content to look at once connected (Arar). The Wireless Internet has created excitement from Yahoo to Microsoft, and from Japan to US. It is a worldwide phenomenon holding great importance. This project will give an outline for the final one that would try to answer the question: is the Wireless Internet industry growing as rapidly as it appears, and as well as it has been predicted? The expected answer is a simple 'Yes.' "

"This project was called APRANET ( Advanced Research Projects Agency Network), created by the Pentagon?s Advanced Research Projects Agency established in 1969 to provide a secure and survivable communications network for organizations engaged in defense related research. In order to make the network more global a new sophisticated and standard protocol was needed. They developed IP (Internet Protocol) technology which defined how electronic messages were packaged, addressed, and sent over the network. The standard protocol was invented in 1977 and was called TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol)."

Abstract
Today it seems like everyone is talking about something called "broadband", its importance, and how it's going to affect and enhance your computing experience. However, it is rarely defined in a simple and straightforward manner. This paper will attempt to provide an explanation in a way that is pertinent to you as an end user-- it will define what is meant by "broadband" and "wireless area network technology", describe what is involved, and differentiate between the most popular broadband technologies.
From the paper:
"Broadband is usually used to refer to a type of Internet connection. Simply speaking, a broadband connection is a connection that allows for extremely high speeds and supports data, voice, and sometimes even video information. It is considered broad because multiple kinds of information can travel across the wire, or band. High speed means that in addition to surfing the web without delays, you will also be able to enjoy multimedia-rich applications such as streaming audio and videoconferencing. Broadband connections are typically always on, so you don't have to spend extra time dialing in to your service provider; as soon as the computer attached to the service is turned on, you can start browsing."

From the Paper
"Wireless technology essentially refers to how one accesses the internet via any wireless methodology and is commonly known as WiFi or wireless fidelity. Security and privacy are important concerns in relation to the internet in any circumstance but these concerns are heightened when wireless technology is concerned because anyone with the appropriate technology can access networks across the internet via wireless access points even with appropriate security enhancements. The internet and all of the convenience, entertainment, and community it fosters often overshadows a darker underbelly that tends to get lost in all the popular press on the great things that are being done across this vast, global network which are concerns heightened with wireless access."

"802.11g is the current standard technology for wireless networking. 802.11g is nominally capable of 54 Mb/s connections, just over half the speed of typical wired Ethernet. In reality, speeds are usually much lower. A typical fast Internet connection is less than 6 Mb/s, so 802.11g is more than adequate for Internet access. 802.11g is limiting in situations involving transfer of large files between computers on the same network and use of high-bandwidth applications. 802.11g can also be problematic in an area with a high concentration of wireless networks. The range of frequencies that 802.11g is able to use is very narrow. An apartment complex in a technologically sophisticated area may have a number of overlapping networks, resulting in interference. 802.11n will have a larger frequency range in which to operate, as well as larger channels and faster hardware technologies such as MIMO, or multiple in, multiple out. MIMO technology involves using multiple antennas to maintain several parallel connections between a wireless access point and a computer's wireless network card. MIMO increases the overall bandwidth available to the network."

"Innovative Internet technology gives pedophiles the opportunity to exchange information about children in an organized environment (Faulkner, 1997). By using the Internet, they can meet in chat rooms and educate one another on how to commit this crime. Over the Internet, pedophiles exchange plans and ideas about how to meet, attract, and exploit children, -- and how to lure the parents of these children into a false sense of security about their presence within the family structure. Many Internet sites host online "How To" seminar in pedophilia activities, whether the site managers know it or not."

Abstract
This paper explains that the security problems of the Internet largely are due to the design structure of the Internet; there is no central hub to control information and thus no rules on regulation. The author believes the government finds itself incapable of passing any sort of control measures on the use of the Internet because the users have all the power to control or regulate user discipline. The paper stress that, to find and assess Internet security involving hackers and breakers-in, partnerships within the concerned industry must be formed, whereby, each partner helps the other in case of a breach in security.
From the Paper
"It was originally known as ?Darpanet? and was a defense device to aid the Government in the eventuality of a nuclear war. The defense personnel used this Darpanet to communicate messages between the various Government networks. The later form of this type of communication came to be known as the ?net? or the ?Internet.? Now there are more than 30 million users from all over the world, and there are more than 40 million sites on the Internet. From its humble beginning when the connection was given to universities in America, to the present day when connections are given to small businesses, to Internet Service Providers, and to individual users, the Internet has indeed come a long way. The Internet can now be accessed by any number of users, both private and public, and the service is offered by a large number of Internet providers."

"Wireless networks provide users with an effective means of communication with a corporate network or a personal user interface in the home that permits access to the Internet through such devices as laptop computers, cellular phones, and personal digital assistants. Following the development of the IEEE 802.11b standard or WiFi (Wireless Fidelity), countless wireless network cards and wireless access points with data rates up to 54 million bits per second have been manufactured and marketed for sale across the globe (Blosser, 2002). In addition, cellular technology has developed 2.5G systems that add digital capability to existing digital systems. Finally, wireless local area networks (WLANs) are one of the fastest growing wireless segments in the industry. The IEEEE 802.11b WLAN connections are very common in home networking technologies and wireless Internet access points (Frenzel, 2002)."

Abstract
This paper discusses web traffic patterns and how the existing internet infrastructure is inadequate for the sheer amount of data and file types now moving across the web and over the Internet. It looks at how new and emerging technologies such as wireless use of the Internet to transfer media files and voice over internet protocols (VoIP) are consuming ever more bandwidth and how this affects the overall quality of service (QoS) of many of the most basic aspects of Internet usage.

From the Paper
"Quality of service or QoS allows networks to provide higher levels of service in terms of quality and efficiency by improving data flows across the network. Some of the traditional strategies to improve QoS have been to merely increase the priority levels of some data over that of others (Voice, 2005). This only works so far before it results traffic degradation system wide as all traffic becomes prioritized in order to compensate. While many companies and service providers traditionally just increased bandwidth in order to correct for QoS issues, this too is just a short-term solution to the exponentially increasing internet traffic that is resulting from the mass movement of multi-media files and data streams across the internet (IP, 2003)."

Abstract
In this article, the writer demonstrates that it is obvious that the Internet has become an important educational resource and a powerful social element for children. The writer also discusses that while the Internet provides children with a wealth of learning opportunities, it can also potentially expose them to negative content, for although it allows benefits such as socialization, research and communication tools for children, it also contains negative elements such as violence, hate sites, isolation, commercialism, predators, and pornography. The writer concludes that the best safeguards for parents are to remain involved in their child's activities by actively monitoring online usage and to establish open and honest communication.
From the Paper
"In a series of studies published by the American Psychological Association on April 30, 2006, roughly 75 to 90 percent of American teenagers use the Internet to email, instant message, visit chat rooms and surf online Web sites, all of which can have both positive and negative effects, from encouraging self-injury practices to improving academic performance."
"One study, the HomeNetToo Project, by Michigan State University examined the positive effects of home Internet access on children's academic performance by following 140 children aged 10-18 years from low-income households for a two-year period (Borzekowski). Researchers found that the children who used the Internet for an average of thirty minutes a day had higher standardized test scores in reading and higher grade point averages at one year and at 16 months after the project began, yet Internet use had no effect on standardized math scores."
