1961-1967
-
It happened that the work at MIT, at RAND, and at NPL, had all proceeded in parallel without any of the researchers knowing about the other work. The word "packet" was adopted from the work at NPL and the proposed line speed to be used in the ARPANET design was upgraded from 2.4 kbps to 50 kbps
-
When the public was first introduced to the internet, when a message was sent from a computer sciences professor.
-
1962-1965
-
He published a book discussing his "Galactic Network" concept, he envisioned a globally interconnected set of computers in which everyone could quickly access data and programs from any site. In spirit, the concept was similar to the Internet in our present day.
-
This book was about the theoretical feasibility of communications using packets opposed to using circuits.
-
1964-1967
-
They worked on connecting TX-2 computer in Mass. They experimented and realized that the time-shared computers could work well together, running programs, and retrieving data as necessary on the remote machine, but that the circuit switched the telephone was completely inadequate for the job.
-
In late 1966, carrying onto 1967, Roberts went to DARPA, to develop and quickly put together his plan for the ARPANET.
-
RFQ was released by DARPA for the development of one of the key components, the packet switches called Interface Message Processors (IMP's).
-
This was the first host computer to be connected.
-
S. Crocker finished the initial ARPANET Host-to-Host protocol, called the Network Control Protocol (NCP). As the ARPANET sites completed implementing NCP during the period 1971-1972, the network users finally could begin to develop applications.
-
Kahn organized a large, very successful demonstration of the ARPANET at the ICCC. This was the first public demonstration of this new network technology to the public. It was also in 1972 that the initial "hot" application, electronic mail, was introduced
-
Commercial Internet service providers (ISPs) began to emerge in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
-
the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) was standardized, and consequently, the concept of a world-wide network of interconnected TCP/IP networks, called the Internet, was introduced.
-
It was installed in the Stanford Research Insititute, by the National Science Foundation. It was called the NFSNET, and it was a T1 line that connected small networks together, it was a key component in the first file transmission, and it was also known as the first Internet Backbone.
-
The ARPANET was decommissioned in 1990.
-
Yahoo was created.
-
The Internet was commercialized in 1995 when NSFNET was decommissioned, removing the last restrictions on the use of the Internet to carry commercial traffic.
-
Google was created.
-
Facebook was created.
-
Youtube was founded
-
Twitter was created.
