File Transfer Protocol
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a TCP/IP based network protocol just like the HTTP used to transmit files from one computer to another through the Internet. FTP is designed to transfer multiple small files such as images on a web page instead of transferring a single large file. This standard protocol supports the pausing, scheduling, and restarting of file downloads. File Transfer Protocol was first introduced by Abhay Bhushan from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC on April 16, 1971 through RFC 114, which provides the standard definition and the basic commands of the protocol, enabling devices (specifically computers) to communicate or transfer files or messages with each other.
NETmundial
NETmundial (Alternatively, the Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance) was a two-day global meeting on the topic of Internet governance, attended by a group of stakeholders including government officials, representatives of global Internet organizations, civil society, and academia. The meeting took place in São Paulo, Brazil between 23-24 April 2014. It was hosted by the Brazilian government in the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
The purpose of the meeting was to highlight issues relating to Internet Governance after the leaked NSA documents revealed US-lead spying of citizens and companies, and provide shared principles and steps forward for the multistakeholder community that would inform further global discussions on the governance of the Internet.
