Two Early Interactive Computer Network Experiments
Publication Year: 2016, Page(s):12 - 24Two early networking experiments joined a time-sharing computer at the System Development Corporation with systems at the Stanford Research Institute briefly in 1963 and at MIT Lincoln Laboratory in 1966-1967. Both were influenced by J.C.R. Licklider's interest in resource sharing and included experiments with the interactive use of remote programs. View full abstract»

Infrastructure, Representation, and Historiography in BBN's Arpanet Maps
Publication Year: 2016, Page(s):44 - 57The earliest and most widespread representation of the Arpanet were network graphs or maps that, arguably, remain its most prominent artifact.

Here, the authors begin a retooling of the maps to highlight further what is missing from t... View full abstract»

The Clamor Outside as INWG Debated: Economic War Comes to Networking
Publication Year: 2016, Page(s):58 - 77In a 2011 Anecdote department article in the Annals, Alex McKenzie provided an excellent account of the events between 1974 and 1976 leading up to INWG 96, a proposed internetwork transport protocol. McKenzie's anecdote focused on the events in INWG (International Network Working Group), which this article shows were a small part of a much larger debate that was going on outside. The author places... View full abstract»
