History of Internet

• In 1960’s main frame computers are stand alone machines

• The Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) in the department of defense was interested in finding a way to connect computers

• In 1967, at the Association of computing machinery (ACM) meeting ARPA presented its idea for ARPANET, a small network of connected computers

* 9

• Each host computer would be attached to a specialized

computer called an interface message processor (IMP)

• Each IMP had to be able to communicate with each

other IMP’s as well as with its own attached host

• By 1969, ARPANET was a reality and four Universities

were connected via the IMP’s to form a network
