which make this piece of literature an excellent reading material. Back in the day, this reality was set in the science fiction scenary,

United Kingdom. Initially it was meant to be used as a tool to exchange scientific knowledge, although, in the 1960's the US

department of defense sees the military potential of this newborn technology and starts to fund the research, given origin to the ARPANET,

science lab of Professor Leonard Kleinrock, at University of California, to a computer located in the Stanford Research Institute set the

milestone for the development of the modern day internet. From then the network only grown, in our days there is more interconnected computers

and information being exchanged than the first pioneers could ever imagine.\\
