Just some comments on the intentions of the article:

• It is meant as an overview article forwarding people to the relevant articles. As such it is IMHO already quite long. So major extensions (and maybe also smaller ones) should probably go into an new, linked article.
• I started with the applications and not the protocols because I think it is more natural for non-CS people to learn what is done with networks, what that means for the qualities networks must have to finally stop to understand things when the technicalities are explained.
• Any ideas on figures/pictures to show?
