Robotic Arms and Robotics
The word robot comes from the Czech word “robota”, meaning “forced labor.” The stuff of science fiction robotics in the 21st century is different than your parents or your grandparents’ ideas of robotics. What used to be thought of as futuristic improbability is now becoming a reality.
There are, theoretically, three Laws of Robotics. The Laws of Robotics were developed by a small group of scientists who believe that robotics is the wave of the future. The first law, referred to as law zero, is that a robot may not injure humanity, or, though inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. The second law states that a robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, unless this would violate a higher order law. This law was created so that mankind would seek not to create robots that would harm people. The third law is that a robot must obey orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with a higher order law. And finally the final law is that a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with a higher order law. These were used in a recent Hollywood movie however many people don’t know that the Laws of Robotics actually exists.
According to The Robot Institute of America a robot is a “reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move materials, parts, tools, or specialized devices through various programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks.” This is a scientific sounding description however most people just think of robots as machine that mimic their counterparts. In practical usage, a robot is a mechanical device which performs automated tasks.
The most developed robot in practical use today is the robotic arm and it is seen in applications throughout the world. We use robotic arms to carry out dangerous work such as when dealing with hazardous materials. We use robotic arms to carry out work in outer space where man can not survive and we use robotic arms to do work in the medical field such as conducting experiments without exposing the researcher.
Some of the most advanced robotic arms have such amenities as a rotating base, pivoting shoulder, pivoting elbow, rotating wrist and gripper fingers. All of these amenities allow the robotic arm to do work that closely resembles what a man can do only without the risk.


“The performance metrics observed when factors such as real world network latency and packet loss are implemented indicate that TPS in EOS approaches levels comparable to Ethereum.”
So says a new study that claims to have completed the first independent benchmark testing of the EOS software.
While previously eos blockchain explorers have shown the network can handle more than 1,200 transactions a second, the study says it can actually handle only 250 transactions a second even under unrealistic conditions of no latency. They say:
“High levels of TPS are sustained at 0 ms round trip latency. When 50 ms of RTT is added into the system, performance immediately falls below 50 TPS indicating that latency has a significant effect on throughput. Once RTT is increased to 100 ms, performance drops even further.”
Round trip time (RTT) is the length of time it takes for a signal to be sent plus the length of time it takes for an acknowledgement of that signal to be received. That’s obviously not possible at zero seconds under real world conditions, with the authors so stating:
“The research results prove the inaccuracies in performance claims and concluded that the foundation of the EOS system is built on a flawed model.”
The study, funded by the Bounties Network which is led by Brent Xu of ConsenSys, replicated the eos network to analyze its performance during two months of testing. The conclusions it reached are fairly damning. They say, for example:
“There is no formal verification protocol that occurs to validate transactions beyond the fact that that block producers are including them within transactions.
The configuration of this system introduces further suspicion as mentioned in our performance testing on the fate of orphaned transactions that are not successfully processed by the network.
In Ethereum, orphaned and stale transactions are apparent for the network to see in the available mempool, while ec...


Until recently, my favourite meter(s) ... the Contour USB and Contour Next USB. I first acquired this to take advantage of the USB functionality. Not only does the USB port connect to a PC application, it also recharges the battery. You will never need to purchase another battery with this meter. I have a total of three of the Contour USB and one Contour Next USB.
That being said, the reason I have three Contour USB is that they do not seem terribly accurate. I have had reason to question the accuracy on quite a few occasions. When I used a different meter (or two), the Contour USB was obviously out of whack. I did contact Bayer for support and never once received a reply. I also will not use the Bayer lancer anymore. I found it to be one of the lancers that hurts the most.
I switched from the Accu-Chek Aviva in favour of the Contour USB. There were several reasons for this switch: 1) USB rechargeable battery; 2) USB PC connection and desktop app; 3) smaller device overall; and 4) perception that company Bayer made better products. I hate to say this, but I was wrong on all four. The price of the battery is negligible overall. The USB PC connection and app is available for the Accu-Check. The Contour USB is a different shape, not necessarily smaller. And, in my experience, the accuracy of the Contour USB is questionnable (with results between 3.9 and 8.0 mmol, it seemed to be about .1 to .4 higher than other meters, when over 8.0 mmol, it seemed to be way out of whack).
The case that comes with the Contour USB is a slightly higher quality than other meters. I was initially impressed with this. The case holds the meter, lancer, test strip container, and has a mesh zip up area for accessories like disinfectant wipes, spare needles, USB cable, etc. The case has changed recently though, and the quality is lower.
I need to point out that the USB connectivity is not as flexible as it would seem. If you look closely at the picture, you will note that the USB connector sticks out of the meter where the meter is at full width and height. There simply is no way of inserting this into your average PC/MAC without an extension cable. That renders the usefulness pretty much down to zero ... if you need the extension cable, this connectivity is no different than any other meter. Bayer should consider having the USB connector stick out a bit further so that it can be used without an extension cable – to be fair to Bayer, though, they do include the extension cable (likely realizing that the meter is useless without an extension USB cable).
Other than the USB features, the Contour USB is nothing special. The buttons on the top and sides are small. If the meter is left in the case, the buttons are near-impossible to press (the case design is such that the clear plastic retainer holding the meter is covering the buttons -- very poor design).
I do wish other manufacturers would take a cue from the USB rechargeable batteries. Having users keep their meters longer and satisfied sells more of the strips and lancets, doesn’t it?
I was hoping that the Contour Next USB would have addressed some of the accuracy and design issues. The colour screen is a nice touch. Adding more options to the meter and testing procedure is a nice touch and helpful. I like the concept of logging carbs and insulin. Carb logging is for grams only, insulin logging is for both fast-acting and long-acting insulin types.
I already have had reason to question the accuracy of the Contour Next USB. It is similar to the Contour USB between 3.9 and 8.0 where it is displaying high by .1 to .4 higher than all other meters. I have not had occasion to determine accuracy above 8.0, however. I gave up on the Contour Next USB after three weeks. In part that was due to the lack of response from the Bayer support organization. I rely on the meter accuracy to determine bolus (mealtime) insulin dosage ... the difference in insulin units at a .4 error rate is enough to keep me away and looking for a more accurate and consistent meter.

Investigating Bio-mimetic Origami Radiation Shield Design Geometries for Mitigating Transient Soft Errors Induced by Cosmic Rays in Solid-State Storage Devices
Manu Anish, Eliza Kishan, Maria de los Angeles Delgado Alvarez, Nikolai Voth — April 2023
This research investigates the impact of radiation exposure from hadrons of terrestrial cosmic rays (primarily neutron, proton, and pion) on solid-state storage devices, specifically focusing on the transient effects that cause single event upsets (SEUs) or soft errors. The experiment involves measuring soft-error rates of a commercially available solid-state storage device controlled by NodeMCU micro-controller when exposed to hadron beams from the T9 PS accelerator that simulate terrestrial cosmic radiation exposure. In particular, we propose to test the shielding efficacy of different origami geometric radiation shield designs, bio-mimetically inspired by the cellular structure of radiation resistant Melanized fungi. The proposed experiment draws on two strands of previous studies -- radiation induced soft errors in solid state devices, and geometric cellular structure of radiation-resistant fungi in shielding. The results of this study will potentially contribute to the development of new bio-mimetic origami geometric design philosophies and principles for radiation shield designs.

For scientists, space is a magnificent “forecourt”. The space can be referred to as an inexhaustible source of knowledge and learning that it is assisting in the solution of the most fundamental existential issues concerning Earth’s origins and its place in the Universe. Curiosity along with the desire for a brighter future has driven humans to explore and develop space explorations.
Meaning of Space Exploration It’s the exploring of outer space by using astronomy and space technology. While astronomers use telescopes to explore space, both unscrewed robotic space operations and human spaceflight are used to explore it physically. One of the primary sources for space science is space disquisition, which is analogous to astronomy in its classical form. We can use space exploration to attest or refute scientific hypotheses that have been created on Earth. Perceptivity into gravity, the magnetosphere, the atmosphere, fluid dynamics, and the geological evolution of distant planets have all come from studying the solar system.

The globally renowned US space agency NASA has brought the first all-electric X-plane, X-57 Mod II, at its California-based Armstrong Flight Research Center and is curious to initiate testing of the space vehicle. While testing, the space agency would thoroughly evaluate the innovative technologies integrated into the space vehicle, particularly the rocket’s electric propulsion system. Besides this, NASA intends to share “crucial testing results” to notify the emerging electric aircraft market.
At the initial level, the space agency will carry out ground tests on the electric-powered space vehicle, and eventually conducting flight tests. However, NASA has not specified any timeline regarding when and for how long it will perform the tests. Unlike the Mod II X-plane, the succeeding models Mod III and IV will configure wings.
NASA has stated that it would publicize all the information obtained through the test performance of the electric propulsion system equipped in the X-plane and will also reveal other efficient ways for successfully launching the all-electric aircraft. Apart from this, the space agency is likely to participate actively in developing new regulatory standards for electric aircraft, including EVTOL (electric vehicle takeoff and landing) vehicles.
On a related note, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Rocket would carry Intuitive Machines-manufactured robotic Nova-C lander to the lunar surface, announced by the spokespersons of both the space companies last week. They also mentioned that NASA would sponsor this 2021-scheduled flight.
In May 2019, NASA selected Astrobotic Technology, Orbit Beyond, and Intuitive Machines, for constructing lander that would carry the space agency’s payloads safely and effectively on the lunar surface. The agency has also set the budgets for the three space companies: $79.5 Million for Astrobotic Technology, $97 Million for Orbit Beyond, and $77 Million for Intuitive Machines.
Nova-C would support NASA in accomplishing Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program by carrying equipment and devices for the space agency.

We live on the edge of wireless reception. Even with an external antenna in the window, the signal was not quite strong enough and the connection was frequently dropped. Our friend Halza had the idea to use a strainer as a reflector. This trick works great for us too, and improves the reception considerably.
The WLAN antenna inside the strainer is one of these.
The WLAN signals are in the 2.4 GHz band, which means that one wave length is 12.5 cm. Already a reflecting plane, placed 1/4 wavelength (3.1 cm) behind the antenna should provide constructive interference and some signal gain. A parabolic reflector with the antenna in the focal point provides more. The strainer not exactly a parabola, but has the right general looks.
Lots of variants on this idea are available.

|Takoi Hamrita teaches some of the principles involved in her futuristic climate-control system to her University of Georgia students.|
Summertime living has never been easy for chickens in Georgia. Heat stress takes a heavy toll every year. But a few "talking" chickens in a University of Georgia lab may soon change that.
Modern poultry houses' vastly improved cooling methods have already helped make Georgia farmers the nation's No. 1 poultry producers. But the houses' climate controls can still be greatly improved.
That's where Takoi Hamrita's sophisticated chickens come in.
Let the Chickens Talk
"The chickens are the most important things in the house," said Hamrita, an assistant professor of biological and agricultural engineering with the UGA College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. "We're using the approach of letting the birds tell us whether they're comfortable."
With the chickens, in effect, helping control their climate themselves, they can be comfortable all the time. That may not seem important. But the benefits are clear. With an always-ideal climate, chickens will:
- Be better able to ward off disease pathogens they might otherwise carry in their bodies to your table.
- Survive better, saving farmers the expense and trouble of disposing of birds otherwise killed by heat stress -- while keeping the environment safer.
- Grow with peak efficiency, improving the growers' profits.
Sensors and Artificial Intelligence
To get her chickens to "talk," Hamrita uses an ingenious combination of sensors and artificial intelligence .
She starts with quarter-inch-thick sensors the diameter of a nickel. Painlessly implanted (with an anesthetic) under the breast bone of three-week-old chickens, the sensors transmit data to a central computer.
"At the moment, the sensors tell us only the birds' deep-body temperature," Hamrita said. "Eventually, though, they will also tell us their respiration and heart rate."
With the physiological feedback, the computer takes over the controls in a way the farmer never could. "It determines, using artificial intelligence, how the bird is feeling," she said. "And it decides what the computer's next move should be."
A Complex System
The system is complex. It has to be. "The bird is dynamic. It's growing every day, so its response to its environment changes every day," Hamrita said. "The environment is constantly changing, too. We can no longer rely on standard mathematic models to handle all these variables."
|Takoi Hamrita shows her students part of the hardware that makes the interface between the producer and her complex climate-control system.|
The computer's neural networks, though, can handle them. With digital simulations of human neurons, the computer is trained to "think." It can recognize changes and patterns and adjust to the ever-changing feedback from the sensors.
"The neural networks are capable of learning," Hamrita said. "They can juggle the different variables in the bird, the weather, economic factors -- all of the things that go into making the best climate-control decisions."

So far, Hamrita's studies have involved only about 30 chickens and a dozen sensor-implanted chickens in her research chamber. The system is about five years from commercial use.
"The next move is to borrow a producer's house for a full-scale study," she said. "We're almost ready to do that."
A full house of around 65,000 chickens would need about 100 sensors. "The sensors would be the biggest investment -- $5,000 to $10,000 for 100," she said. "The system itself would be about $2,000."
The sensors would be reusable. And the growers themselves would be able to implant them.
Chickens Genetically Different
Hamrita said the futuristic system would pay off for growers because it has become so important to keep chickens comfortable.
"The chickens we have now are genetically different from the 'yard birds' of the past," she said. "Those birds could fend for themselves, but they weren't very meaty."
Over the years, chickens have been bred to grow more efficiently. Compared to a half-century ago, they now gain 50 percent more weight on half the feed in half the time.
"We've altered them for growth, but they're no longer hardy," Hamrita said. "We demand a lot more of them, so we have to give them more."

Today you live in a world where you need everything right in front of your finger tips. Your household and offices are filled with loads of advanced technology utilities e.g. TVs, DVD players, VCR, CBL/SAT, other devices such as home automation systems, audio players and DVRs. And each of these devices has its individual remote controls. Now if you have multiple of these devices then you would be literally juggling with their remotes and at the end get confused that which remotes controls what. This gave the idea of Universal remotes which can literally control each of these things without any hassle (or juggling).
There are varieties of remotes which comes with a wide range of brands are available in the market. Now here comes the confusion that what type of remote you should buy to fit according to your requirements. Choosing the right Remote for you is very important. Every universal remote comes with the same basic features of controlling and manipulating your devices. But there are some more advanced high-end remotes which can make your remote handling more sophisticated and hassle free while enhancing your viewing and entertainment experience. http://www.best-universal-remote.com
Basic features that a universal remote provides.
As like a normal remote control it has numeric keypads, a power button, D-pad, volume and channel buttons and other specific functional keys. These are predesigned to control most commonly used devices such as VCRs, TVs, CBL/SAT, DVD players and audio players, other devices such as home automation systems like AC, Lights, Fan and even Doors can also be controlled after proper programming of these universal remotes.
Advanced Features that you should look for
Often these universal remotes come preprogrammed for the controlling of basic tech. devices, but in order to control High – end devices of different brands these need to be programmed with manufacturer’s access codes. So in order to operate with and control a variety of devices of specific brands, you need to know their access codes. These codes can easily be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website and can be fed by connecting these remotes which comes with a USB connection with your computers.
User Interfaces available
Gone are those days when you had to push those small tiny buttons on your remote controller (oh, yeah! Those were so hefty) to operate with your devices. Today remotes are available with LCD touch screens giving you the space and flexibility to operate freely. Even these remotes can be controlled with voice commands (Who bothers to even touch) and can help you to control your systems when your hands are full.
Medium and range through which remotes can operate
Universal remotes come with both infrared(IR) and Radio frequency signals(RF). While infrared limits the range and space of your handling, RF provides you the flexibility even to control your devices from other rooms as it increases the operating range of remotes from 25feet to a whopping range of 100feet, these can easily penetrate walls and any physical barrier standing in between your remote and your device.
How to Choose?
Universal remotes can be chosen on the basis of your requirements i.e. number of devices you would use with, and type of devices that need to be controlled. You should also consider your budget as high- end universal remotes are expensive and inexpensive remotes can control only the simple used devices such as TVs and DVD players. So, you should purchase according to your need and budget, as there are lot of options available in the market.


The focus of HBO Lab is on the design and development of thermal and optical imaging technologies and devices with applications in medical diagnosis and screening. Optics-based medical devices are of particular interest to us due to their intrinsic ability of revealing malignancies in their early stages. The early diagnosis of diseases improves the effectiveness of treatments, promotes prevention rather than medical intervention, and is probably the only approach for us to win the war on cancer.
One of the major challenges in optical imaging of endogenous tissue contrast is the poor specificity due to background signals from the healthy tissue. The HBO Lab’s vision is to overcome this shortcoming by separating excitation and detection channels (i.e, Hybrid methods). In this scenario, crosstalk between the channels takes place by energy conversion at malignant sites that are sensitive to the excitation.

IC 59 and IC63 In Cassiopeia
Looking toward the constellation Cassiopeia, the skyscape features the swept back, comet-shaped clouds IC 59 (left) and IC 63 (lower centre). About 600 light-years distant, the clouds are slowly dissipating under the influence of ionizing ultraviolet radiation from hot,luminous blue-white star gamma Cas. Gamma Cas is physically located only 3 to 4 light-years from the nebulae, at the upper right centre of the frame.
In fact, slightly closer to gamma Cas, IC 63 is dominated by red H-alpha light emitted as the ionized hydrogen atoms recombine with electrons.
Farther from the star, IC 59 shows proportionally less H-alpha emission but more of the characteristic blue tint of dust reflected star light.

Capacity : 100 to 5000 KVA
Voltage fluctuation is a common phenomenon in every part of the country. The industrial units running round the clock, usually face the problem of low and high voltage. 90% of industrial load motors . Electric motors draw considerably high current at low & high voltage. This higher current affects the electrical motors ( particularly smaller capacity motors upto 7.5 H.P.) in three ways:
With the installation of the stabilizer and maintaining 390/400 volts, the motor will operate smoothly drawing 15-20% lesser current and correspondingly the relay setting can be reduced by 15-20% In case single phasing occurs, the relay will trip in 40-50 seconds. The motor can withstand the high current fot this period and will be safe. Also, the relays, contactors, switchgears, etc. incorporated with the motor will be safe
The industrial units having acute /higher failure rate of Electrical Equipments such as bulbs tubes, chokes, starter, contactor coils & motors (particularly smaller capacity motors upto 7.5 H.P) etc. should verify that it may be due to HIGHER voltage. You may note down Hourly readings of voltage variation for few days. If you find that input voltage is above 230 volts single phase / 400 volts Three phase even for few hours a day, then you definitely require a stabilizer.
How to Access Higher Losses & Low Power Factor in Industrial Units Without Installing Stabilizer?
Note down hourly readings of current and voltage of one motor operating at constant load for 2-3 days. From the different readings you will observe that the current drawn by the motor is minimum at 390/400 volts as compared to the current drawn at other voltages. This means that power consumed by the motor is minimum at 390/400 volts.
Also note down hourly readings of voltage and K.W. from your Electronic Energy Meter for 2-3 days. From the readings you will observe that K.W. is minimum at 390/400 volts in most of the readings as compared to the higher voltage.
If you find that the above collected details are true then you will certainly have the advantages after installing the Servo voltage stabilizer as mentioned on succeeding page.
The table below gives approximate quantitative advantages of Automatic Voltage Controller at various voltage fluctuation levels.
|Input Voltage Variation||Possible % Reduction In Breakdown||Possible Appx. Power Saving|
|Motor Load Below 10hp||Lighting Load||Motor Load below 10hp||Lighting Load|
|380-400 volts||Nil||Nil||Nil||Nil & no servo stabilizer required|
|Jindal's Make Roller Type Regulator||Conventional Make with Carbon Brush Regulator|
|Power consumption is 0.5 to 1.5% depending upon the input voltage range||Power consumption is 2 to 7% under similar conditions|
|Suitable for continuous 100% duty cycle||Suitable for only 30% to 40% duty cycle|
|Life at full load is 15-20 years||Maximum life is 2-3 years at full load|
|Five years unconditional guarantee||Normally guarantee for one year|
|Negligible losses in full boost & buck condition||Max. Losses in full boost and buck condition|
JINDAL’S Servo Voltage Stabilizers are available in a wide range and variour models, incapacities ranging from 100 KVA to 5000 KVA. The standard models conform to the following specifications:
|Input Voltage (Volts)||360-450, 350 - 460, 340 - 480, 320 - 460, 300 - 460|
|Efficiency (Approx.)||99.5% 99% 98.7% 98.25% 98%|
|Output Voltage||400 V +/-1%, 3- Phase, 50 Hz|
|Cooling||Natural Oil Cooled (upto 5000 KVA) / Air Cooled (upto 500 KVA)|
|Type||Indoor / Outdoor|
|Temeprature Rise (Max)||30 degree centigrade above ambient tem perature|
|Correction Rate||6-8 V / Second (Up to 500 KVA) and 3-4 V / Second (Above 500 KVA)|
|Wave Form Distortion||Virtually Nil|
|Duty Cycle||100% Continuous.|
Owing to its high efficiency & associated benefits, the pay-back period for the cost of JINDAL’S stabilizers is ganerally between 6 to 12 months. And it saves you significant costs in subsequent years through its life.

The Internet of Me
I’ve been following the whole “internet of things” discussion for a while. As an early user of home automation gear, the ability to control and track every aspect of my home is fascinating. As an early user of OBD devices as well, the same applies for my car.
But the thing that is missing in all of these new technologies is simple: me.
I don’t want the Internet of Things. I want the Internet of Me. I am the root of the universe I inhabit. I effect every aspect of my environment with causal chains that reverberate far longer than I am in any given space. I’m a state machine disrupter.
And yet all the home automation, IoT, bio-tracking tech is based around giving agency to the data outside of myself rather than with my self at the center.
Put another way: when I get home my house recognizes my phone is nearby and unlocks the door. It does this because of a...

ok, I think I forgot to mention that I want to avoid rebooting.
I'd simply like to have the possibility to set the correct video mode
when I activate that particular port on the KVM.
The system receives a bunch of video parameters upon boot, but if that
port on the KVM is not the active one it is 1024x768 and not the real
setting that the monitor reports to the KVM switch.
I'd later like to force that exact video mode.
The kernel does it somehow and if possible I want to have that
functionality on manual request.

Installing an electrical outlet is a relatively easy do-it-yourself project. In most cases, you’ll just need to connect the new outlet to an existing circuit and make sure it’s properly grounded. But there are a few things to keep in mind before you start, including what type of outlet you need and how to wire it correctly.
Step 1: Choose the Right Outlet
There are three main types of electrical outlets: standard, GFCI, and AFCI. Standard outlets are the most common and can be used for most appliances. GFCI outlets are required in areas where there is a risk of electrical shock, such as near a sink or in a wet basement. AFCI outlets are designed to prevent fires by detecting arcing (sparks) in the electrical circuit.
If you’re not sure which type of outlet you need, check with your local building code or electrician.
Step 2: Turn Off the Power
Before you start working on any electrical project, you must turn off the power to the circuit you’ll be working on. The best way to do this is to shut off the breaker for the circuit at your electrical panel. Once the breaker is off, test the outlet to make sure there is no power by plugging in a lamp or other small appliance.
If you don’t have an electrical repairs in Carmel, IN panel or can’t find the right breaker, you can also remove the fuse for the circuit. But be aware that this will shut off power to all devices on that circuit, not just the outlet you’re working on.
Step 3: Remove the Old Outlet
Once you’ve turned off the power, you can remove the old outlet. Start by unscrewing the screws that hold the outlet cover in place. Then, remove the screws that hold the outlet to the electrical box. The wires will still be attached to the outlet, so be careful not to let them fall back into the box.
If the wires are held in place by plastic wire nuts, unscrew the wire nuts and carefully remove the wires. If the wires are held in place by screw terminals, loosen the screws and remove the wires.
Step 4: Install the New Outlet
Now you’re ready to install the new outlet. If you’re replacing a standard outlet with a new standard outlet, the process is pretty straightforward. Start by attaching the new outlet to the electrical box, using the screws that came with the outlet.

DNS is an abbreviation of Domain Name Server. DNS is a protocol with a specific set of standards for exchanging information on the world wide web as well as numerous personal networks, referred to as the TCP/IP protocol suite.
DNS Servers and IP Addresses
What it basically does is IP conversion. To be more specific, it converts a user friendly domain name such as “example.com” into an IP rather an Internet Protocol address such as 220.127.116.11. An IP address in an identity, hence it is used by networks to find each other. An IP address is similar to a GPS for the world wide web. Network devices as well as computers use IP addresses for giving direction to the website that you are searching for. It is just like when you want to reach a person, a telephone number is dialed in order to call them. However, it is not required to keep a list of IP addresses just like you maintain an address book. We should be grateful to the Domain Name Server for this. The DNS server handles an enormous database which connects domain names to IP addresses. The information from all the nameservers across the Internet is gathered in a central registry.
A Basic Understanding Of Domain Name Server
Whenever you try to access a site on the internet or send an email, what your computer does is that it utilizes a DNS server to find the domain name that you are searching for. This procedure is referred to as DNS name resolution. In other words, the resolution of the domain name to the IP address is done by the DNS server. For instance, when a URL is entered in a web browser like “http://www.backlinkblog.com”, a small piece of the network connection works to resolve the domain name “backlinkblog.com” into an IP address such as 18.104.22.168, for the web servers of SEOHost. You can even enter an IP address like 22.214.171.124 into your internet browser and avoid the whole process of DNS name resolution. But it is very difficult to remember numbers. You are unlikely to remember IP addresses for all the websites which is why domain names are preferred. We can also get redirected due to the fact that many domains use the same IP address.
How Long Does It Take?
Nameservers on other networks can access information in the central registry up to 8 hours after registering .com and .net domain names and up to 48 hours for all other domain name extensions. This period is referred to as the propagation period.
The Internet would shut down really fast if there were no DNS servers. When the connection is made to your Internet Service Provider (ISP), home network or WiFi Network, some crucial network configuration information is sent to your personal computer or mobile handset. This is done by the router or modem that assigns the network address of your computer. That configuration contains the DNS name servers that are supposed to be used by the device while converting DNS names to IP addresses.
