SESSION 3. Creating the internet - Bob Braden, Session Chair
Development of Internet standards. Roughly 1973-1983.
Presentors: Bob Braden, Vint Cerf, Dave Clark, Danny Cohen,
Dave Mills
SLIDES:
MATERIALS:
-
The earliest document in Braden's TCP/IP file: a 1976 Stanford report by
Vint Cerf on TCP synchronization
-
A memo written by David Reed in November 1976, titled "Protocols for the
LCS Network", which describes a protocol called Data Stream Protocol, or
DSP. Reed proposed this as a simplfication and extension of the original
TCP proposal. Some of Reed's thinking was subsequently folded back into
TCP and IP.
-
A typewritten page titled "What is a letter?". This is a description
of the TCP "letter" (record) concept, later abandoned. Braden has
no memory of who wrote this or exactly when; perhaps others will recall.
-
A printout of a message originally from Vint Cerf of one of the earliest
successful IP experiments, typed in the SRI bread truck -- er, packet radio
van.
-
A two page hand-drawn analysis of TCP feature interaction --"TCP Facility
Dependency Graph", developed in a TCP design meeting in the 1977-1980 period.
-
IEN 21-28. IENs 22-28 appear to be the earliest glimmer of the split
from "TCP" to TCP/IP.
IEN 21 is "the most interesting" Internet Meeting Notes - 1 February
1978( the TCP/IPv3 spec, in which TCP and IP are just barely separated).
However, this is 86 pages.
IEN 22, 26, and 27,because they are short and historically interesting;
IEN 23-25 are online at ISI ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/ien/
IEN 28: Postel
Feb-78 Draft Internetwork Protocol
-
Diagrams of ARPAnet and MILNET in April 1986.
