Ĭreator of the World Wide Web who developed many of the principles we still use today, such as HTML, HTTP, URLs and web browsers. Inventors of DNS, the ‘phone book of the internet’. I helped to build the roads-the infrastructure that gets things from point A to point B. When asked to explain my role in the creation of the internet, I generally use the example of a city. Vint Cerf is credited with the first written use of the word ‘internet’. This helped the ARPANET evolve into the internet we use today. Īmerican computer scientists who developed TCP/IP, the set of protocols that governs how data moves through a network. Ī British scientist who, at the same time as Roberts and Kleinrock, was developing similar technology at the National Physical Laboratory in Middlesex. Īn American scientist who worked towards the creation of a distributed network alongside Lawrence Roberts. Paul Baran’s idea appealed to Roberts, and he began to work on the creation of a distributed network. Ĭhief scientist at ARPA, responsible for developing computer networks. If one point was destroyed, all surviving points would still be able to communicate with each other. In 1964 Baran proposed a communication network with no central command point.
In 1959 he joined an American think tank, the RAND Corporation, and was asked to research how the US Air Force could keep control of its fleet if a nuclear attack ever happened. Īn engineer whose work overlapped with ARPA’s research. Later, other inventors’ creations paved the way for the web as we know it today. When networking technology was first developed, a number of scientists and engineers brought their research together to create the ARPANET.
