 | | <<b>bb>>Ed<b>bb>> Roberts, creator of the first personal computer, left the "fast track" pace of the computer business for the challenges of being a small-town physician. |  | | <<b>bb>>Ed<b>bb>> Roberts surveyed the market to see who might buy their own computer and he couldn't find a single person who wanted one. |  | | <<b>bb>>Ed<b>bb>> Roberts, founder of MITS (Micro Instrumentation Telemetry Systems), designed the first personal computer before there was a demand for a single unit. |

| | Larry Roberts |
 | | Roberts, a respected computer scientist with good management skills who also had networking experience (which was a rare commodity in those days) was the ideal candidate to lead ARPA's networking project. |  | | His first choice was a young computer scientist named Larry Roberts. |  | | Larry Roberts is sometimes called the "father of the ARPANET." He earned this nickname by directing the team of engineers that created the ARPANET. |

 | | There is a slight ambiguity in the output of the Roberts operator as to which pixel in the output corresponds to which pixel in the input, since technically the operator measures the gradient intensity at the point where four pixels meet. |  | | Often, the absolute magnitude is the only output the user sees --- the two components of the gradient are conveniently computed and added in a single pass over the input image using the pseudo-convolution operator shown in \figref{robmask2}. |  | | \imageref{cln1rob2} is the result of \ref{threshld}{thresholding} the Roberts cross output at a pixel value of 80. |

| | Internet History - Lawrence Roberts |
 | | Roberts presented a paper called Multiple Computer Networks and Intercomputer Communication that summarized the ARPANET plan at the ACM Symposium on Operating System Principles at Gatlinburg, Tennessee, in October 1967. |  | | Roberts immediately started working on the system design for a wide area digital communications network that would come to be called the ARPANET. |  | | Roberts resisted, but finally joined as ARPA IPTO Chief Scientist in December 1966 when Taylor got Hertzfeld to twist the arm of the head of Lincoln Lab to put pressure on Roberts. |

As noted above, Roberts says that an unavailable witness's out-of-court statement may be admitted so long as it has adequate indicia of reliability--i.e. |  | | Roberts allows a jury to hear evidence, untested by the adversary process, based on a mere judicial determination of reliability, thus replacing the constitutionally prescribed method of assessing reliability with a wholly foreign one. |  | | Roberts, 448 U., that right does not bar admission of an unavailable witness's statement against a criminal defendant if the statement bears "adequate 'indicia of reliability,' " a test met when the evidence either falls within a "firmly rooted hearsay exception" or bears "particularized guarantees of trustworthiness."

 | | Phone company executives told Roberts that transferring information over the Internet via a concept called packet switching would "blow up in his face." Even the academic and research communities didn't want anything to do with a publicly accessible Internet system. |  | | Roberts, winner of the 1981 Erickson Award, began thinking about creating a computer network way back in 1962. |  | | Although he was convinced the concept of computers communicating with each other would be "the next step of evolution for the computer field and the next major step for mankind," not everyone shared his enthusiasm. |

| | Roberts Cross - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Computer vision one of the earliest edge detection algorithms, the Roberts' Cross operator works by computing the sum of the squares of the differences between diagonally adjacent pixels. |  | | Roberts' Cross is still in use due to the speed of computation, but performance compared to the alternatives is poor, with noise sensitivity a significant problem. |  | | This can be accomplished by convolving the image with two 2x2 kernels: |

Ericsson prize for research in data communications. |  | | From 1983 to 1993, Dr. Roberts was Chairman and CEO of NetExpress, Inc., an electronics company specializing in packetized facsimile and ATM equipment. |  | | While at ARPA he was responsible for the design, initiation, planning and development of ARPANET, the world's first major packet network, now called the Internet. |
