Client-side:
Client-side is the part of a program dedicated for use by a client, providing services meant for the user's favor. It allows the collection of user data, in order to craft requests to the server /* we will get to that later */Server-side: (in this case VPS*)
*VPS: Virtual Private Server: A machine allowing remote control and used to virtually manipulate data without manual access, but virtually over a protocol such as RDP (remote desktop protocol) and SSH (secure shell).
Server side is a part of a service not visible by the user, dedicated for use by a system administrator, providing services meant to the user's favor through requests processing in order to provide well-crafted responses ..../* we will get to that later */
Cloud Computing:
Wikipedia defines cloud computing as "The practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer." Well, let's make it easier to understand:
Embedded Systems:
An embedded system is a "computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system." In other words, a circuit based on programmable cards allowing almost only the tasks required to function the system properly.
Embedded systems are basically based on mini controllers/mini processors. Some examples of embedded systems: Arduino UNO, Raspberry Pi 3, etc.
Cell-tower Tracking:
Cell-tower tracking is a technology based on tracking a sim card through a set of different calculations with the same concept of GPS but replacing satellites with the nearest cell towers, using this equation to locate the card:
S=(d/1000)/T
meaning d/1000=S*TWhere d stands for distance in meters, divided by 1000, to give the value in clicks (Km) and S stands for the speed of a signal, while T stands for the time that a signal takes to go from the sim card (device generally speaking ) to the nearest cell towers,IoT :
IoT, or the Internet of Things is "internetworking of physical devices, vehicles buildings, and other items—embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators."In other words, a network allowing connection between objects (devices) instead of people ( in the case of the internet) in order to perform automated actions without or with low human interaction.What's the difference between IoT and Internet?
