Switching hub A network connection box to which a number of computers can be connected. The switching hub forwards a data packet from the network to the appropriate computer according to the packet's address. Conventional hubs simply send every packet to every connected computer. Since a switching hub forwards packets only to their intended recipients, it provides greater efficiency. TCP/IP Acronym for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The protocol used to connect to the Internet and to wide-area networks. URL Uniform Resource Locator. A standard way of specifying the location of an object, usually 3 a web page, on the Internet. The URL for a web page would look something like this: "http://www.w3.org". Here, "http:" indicates that a web page is being accessed, "//www.w3.org" is the address of the server containing the web page. Appendix Vector Graphics (See definition for Raster.)
