The general public [[:en:Internet|internat]] uses a [[:en:Domain Name System|DNS]] to associate the names of computers with their [[:en:IP_address|numeric addresses]]. Names are resolved in a recursive process from the front of a name like '''en.wikipedia.org''' to the last or [[:en:top-level domain|top-level domain]] name (TLDs, in the example ".org"). These TLDs are controlled by so-called 'root servers' authorized in various regions of the earth by different organizations and in the United States by the [[:en:Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers|ICANN]]. As an alternative to this global system of inter-operating sanctioned authorities various organizations operate '''alternative DNS roots''' (often referred to as '''alt roots''') and administer their own specific name spaces including the TLDs. | The general public [[:en:Internet|internat]] uses a [[:en:Domain Name System|DNS]] to associate the names of computers with their [[:en:IP_address|numeric addresses]].
