Digital environment

Digital environment

A natural environment is all living and non-living things that occur naturally on Earth, A Digital Environment is a created world within a computer, or a group of computers. What becomes interesting is that, unlike in the real world, within this digital world you can record everything that happens and this trace becomes your digital footprint.

Digital Communication Environments

See computer networking

Digital Communication Environments (DCE) are well known as computer networks. Many Digital Communication Environments contain a central hub which everything is connected to in some form. This hub can be located inside a networking system, or could be referred to as the internet its self.

The digital world includes the sensors that automatically picks up information.

Digital Social environment

See Social environment

Digital Social Environments (DSE) are well known as Social networking sites. Many Digital Social Environments need one central server to distribute information to each of its clients.

Other Digital Environments

Many Environments we face can be reproduced in a digital environment, such as an Immersive digital environment in which an artificial, interactive, computer-created scene or "world" is created for the user to be placed in. We see most Immersive digital environments in theme parks.
