A bit more about me...
• Love cycling, but don’t have much
time for it anymore...
• Besides teaching,
research, administrative
work, and other
professional obligations...

I’m Curious: What Motivated You
to Take 529?
• Introduce yourself to your neighbor
• Interview neighbor on what motivated him/her to take
529?

Course Goals
• Understand more deeply the classic Internet
problems
– routing, congestion control, security, etc.
• Understand emerging technologies and challenges
– Software defined networks, cloud computing, big data
applications
• Become equipped to innovate, solve problems, do
great things

Long before there were computers...
• 1876: Alexander Bell invented telephone
• 1878: Public switches installed at New Haven and San
Francisco, public switched telephone network is born
– People can talk without being on the same wire!
Without Switch

The Advent of Computer Technology
1940s
• Different networking requirements
• Computers to computers communication
– vs. communication between human beings
• Digital information, discrete messages
– vs. continuous analog voice
• Circuit switching technique in telephone network hugely
inefficient for computer communications

Major Internet Milestones
• 1960-1964 Basic concept of “packet switching” was
independently developed by Paul Baran (RAND), Leonard
Kleinrock (MIT)
– AT&T insisted that packet switching would never work!
• 1965 First time two computers talked to each other using
packets (Roberts, MIT; Marill, System Development Corp
(SDC))

Major Internet Milestones
• 1968 BBN group proposed to use Honeywell 516
mini-computers for the Interface Message Processors
(i.e. packet switches)
• 1969 The first ARPANET message transmitted
between UCLA (Kleinrock) and SRI (Engelbart)
– We sent an “L”, did you get the “L”? Yep!
– We sent an “O”, did you get the “O”? Yep!
– We sent a “G”, did you get the “G”?
Crash!

Major Internet Milestones
• 1970 First packet radio network ALOHANET
(Abramson, U Hawaii)
• 1973 Ethernet invented (Metcalfe, Xerox PARC)
• 1974 “A protocol for Packet Network Interconnection”
published by Cerf and Kahn
– First internetworking protocol TCP

The 2004 A. M. Turing Award Goes to...
Bob Kahn
Vint Cerf
• "For pioneering work on internetworking, including the design
and implementation of the Internet's basic communications
protocols, TCP/IP, and for inspired leadership in networking.”

Major Internet Milestones
• 1977 First TCP operation over ARPANET, Packet
Radio Net, and SATNET
• 1985 NSF commissions NSFNET backbone
• 1991 NSF opens Internet to commercial use
