I think you need to research about DNS. Each Domain name services provider will operate and maintain their own DNS systems. We also have INTERNIC (internet Network Information Center), and they will have responsibility for manage all domain names and DNS servers. Each DNS have capacities to query other DNS Servers when they have requested from another. More detail here: http://ecoupon.io/what-is-dns-domain-name-servers/

Is the domain name the internet address of the computer on the internet where the web page is located?

The domain name and the IP address (the physical address of the computer) are both the internet address of the site. The IP is the actual address and the domain name, how it is usually known, is linked to the IP address using a DNS (Domain Name System). IP addresses are assigned by the ISP, the organization that supplies the internet connection. Changing the ISP means changing the IP address. However, the owner of the web site still owns the domain name. If a site is moved, the domain name does not change, but the DNS records (the physical directory listing all the domain names with their corresponding IP addresses) has to be fixed to reflect the new IP address for the Domain Name.
