Computer Metaphors: Presented By: Ashley Runglollsing Vishal Paupiah

This document provides metaphors to help explain computer network concepts: A telephone network is compared to a computer network, with phones connected together to enable communication similar to computers. The world wide web is likened to a spider web, with resources and documents interconnected through hyperlinks. A client/server model is metaphorized as a teacher-student relationship, with the more powerful server sharing knowledge to clients like a teacher instructing students.
