2007-02-23: No one person invented the Internet as we know it today. However, certain major figures contributed major breakthroughs: Leonard Kleinrock was the first to publish a paper about the idea of packet switching, which is essential to the Internet. He did so in 1961. Packet switching is the idea that packets of data can be "routed" from one place to another based on address information carried in the data, much like the address on a letter. Packet switching replaces the older concept of "circuit switching," in which an actual electrical circuit is established all the way from the source to the destination. Circuit switching was the idea behind traditional telephone exchanges.



(according to wikipedia, Leonard Kleinrock:
Born June 13, 1934 (1934-06-13) (age 75)
New York Residence Los Angeles Citizenship American Nationality American )

J.C.R. Licklider was the first to describe an Internet-like worldwide [COLOR=green ! important][COLOR=green ! important]network[/COLOR][/COLOR] of computers, in 1962. He called it the "Galactic Network."

St. Louis, Missouri, USA Died June 26, 1990 (aged 75)
Arlington, Massachusetts Nationality North American )

Larry G. Roberts created the first functioning long-distance computer networks in 1965 and designed the Advanced [COLOR=green ! important][COLOR=green ! important]Research[/COLOR][/COLOR] Projects Agency Network (ARPANET), the seed from which the modern Internet grew, in 1966.

Bob Kahn and Vint Cerf invented the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) which moves data on the modern Internet, in 1972 and 1973. If any two people "invented the Internet," it was Kahn and Cerf - but they have publicly stated that "no one person or group of people" invented the Internet.

(Vint Cerf:
Born June 23, 1943 (1943-06-23) (age 66)
New Haven, Connecticut Citizenship American)
Radia Perlman invented the spanning tree algorithm in the 1980s. Her spanning tree algorithm allows efficient bridging between separate networks. Without a good bridging solution, large-scale networks like the Internet would be impractical.

Wanna rethink that, palerma?
