IV. Summarize the given passage to one third of its length and give a suitable title: (1 x 10 = 10)
When a browser is being used, the desktop sends out coded pulses. These electrical signals are processed and re-entered as equivalent infra-red laser pulses. The browser arranges the keystrokes into a succession of modular messages conforming to Internet Protocol. Each module, called a packet, is of postcard length, it bears an address, a return address, and a place marker.
The infra-red packet enters its queue along with other packets, and mingles with the photon stream that goes on to the next node. There it may elicit a response, more often than not relayed toward its final address, or die in a failed attempt. Each packet flies by in one or two milli-seconds into our neighborhood optical fiber, to reappear sorted into correct order at its destination. It is the inordinate speed of electronics that supports our illusion of simple, swift action at a distance. But in truth, an unceasing sorting and shuffling of myriads of structured packets is at work between your computer and some distant PC-like box, the server. That box serves you from its store of a whole bookcase of ready pages. A server and its transient client become briefly two terminals of an Internet connection, one at your fingertips, and the other as requested; though not always from the physical location you expected.
The elaborate path of storing and forwarding depends on a changing physical fabric. The packets are sent on to nodes where specialized machines called routers, select the path segments ahead from long internal directories, while they store for relay the streams of petitioning packets, prioritizing them as best they can to speed up the traffic of the moment along each route.
