Network computing refers to the use of computers and other devices in a linked network, rather than as unconnected, stand-alone devices. It is connecting separate physical devices through protocols to form a single logical network. As computing technology has progressed during the last few decades, network computing has become more frequent, especially with the creation of cheap and relatively simple consumer products such as wireless routers, which turn the typical home computer setup into a local area network.
