Balance Of Payments
In international economics, the balance of payments (also known as balance of international payments and abbreviated BOP or BoP) of a country is the difference between all money flowing into the country in a particular period of time (e.g., a quarter or a year) and the outflow of money to the rest of the world. These financial transactions are made by individuals, firms and government bodies to compare receipts and payments arising out of trade of goods and services. The balance of payments consists of two components: the current account and the capital account. The current account reflects a country's net income, while the capital account reflects the net change in ownership of national assets. History Until the early 19th century, international trade was heavily regulated and accounted for a relatively small portion compared with national output.

Coloured Book Protocols
The Coloured Book protocols were a set of communication protocols for computer networks developed in the United Kingdom in the 1970s. The name originated with each protocol being identified by the colour of the cover of its specification document. The protocols were in use until the 1990s when the Internet protocol suite came into widespread use. History First defined in 1975, they evolved through experience with the Experimental Packet Switched Service run by Post Office Telecommunications beginning in 1977. They were used on the SERCnet from 1980, and SWUCN from 1982, both of which became part of the JANET academic network from 1984. The protocols gained some acceptance internationally as the first complete X.25 standard, and gave the UK "several years lead over other countries". From late 1991, Internet protocols were adopted on the Janet network instead; they were operated simultaneously for a while, until X.25 support was phased out entirely in August 1997.
