  • The history of the Internet begins with the development of electronic computers.

    The history of the Internet begins with the development of electronic computers in the 1950s.

  • The US Department of Defense awarded contracts as early as the 1960s for packet network systems

  • Packet switching networks such as ARPANET, NPL network, CYCLADES, Merit Network, Tymnet, and Telenet, were developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s using a variety of communications protocols.

  • Access to the ARPANET was expanded in 1981 when the National Science Foundation (NSF) funded the Computer Science Network (CSNET)

  • In 1982, the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) was introduced as the standard networking protocol on the ARPANET.

  • provided interconnectivity in 1986 with the NSFNET project, which also created network access to the supercomputer sites in the United States from research and education organizations

  • The ARPANET was decommissioned in 1990.

  • . Limited private connections to parts of the Internet by officially commercial entities emerged in several American cities by late 1989 and 1990

  • The Internet's takeover of the global communication landscape was almost instant in historical terms: it only communicated 1% of the information flowing through two-way telecommunications networks in the year 1993

  • the NSFNET was decommissioned in 1995, removing the last restrictions on the use of the Internet to carry commercial traffic.
