Quotes About TCP/IP

TCP/IP. Kahn and Cerf published them as a paper called "A Protocol for Packet Network Interconnection." The Internet was born.

In 1981 Lawrence Landweber at the University of Wisconsin pulled together a consortium of universities that were not connected to the ARPANET to create another network based on TCP/IP protocols, which was called CSNET.

published in 1974 as "A Protocol for Packet Network Interconnection,"16 gave the first architectural description of how the Internet would function as a network of networks, with TCP/IP as the glue holding it all together. Indeed, "the paper" is why Kahn and Cerf are so often hailed today as the inventors of the Internet, to the extent that any two people can be singled out for that honor: this was pretty much where the Internet began.

nearly a decade would pass before TCP/IP was stable enough for ARPA to shift the whole Arpanet over to it.

the Kahn-Cerf internetworking protocols had become the official standard of the Defense Department in 1980, and the Arpanet itself had switched over to TCP/IP on January 1, 1983—an event that many would call the actual birth of the Internet.
