| | ARPANET - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) developed by ARPA of the U.S. Department of Defense was the world's first operational packet switching network, and the progenitor of the global Internet. |  | | When the ARPANET was first deployed, not much work had been done of how the computers attached to it would communicate with each other. |  | | One of the participants, Wesley Clark, came up with the idea of using separate smaller computers to manage the communication links; the small computers would then be connected to the large time-sharing mainframe computers which were the typical machines to be connected to the ARPANET. |

 | | Based on a concept first published in 1967, ARPANET was developed under the direction of the U.S. Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) and, in 1969, became a modest reality with the interconnection of four university computers. |  | | In the 1980s, ARPANET was handed over to a separate new military network, the Defense Data Network, and NSFNET, a network of scientific and academic computers funded by the National Science Foundation. |  | | ARPANET was the network that became the basis for the Internet. |

 | | ARPANET email was not, however, the first use of computers for human communication. |  | | The ARPANET is significant as the first successful distributed, wide-area, packet-switched network of computers ever built.[1] It is the first interactive computer network used to deliver email. |  | | Before this point, ARPANET planners focused on building a network for sharing the kinds of technical resources they believed computer researchers on interactive systems would find most useful for their work: programming libraries, research data, remote procedure calls, and unique software packages available only on specific systems. |

 | | The ARPANET was a single network that linked heterogeneous computer systems into a resource sharing network, first within the U.S., and eventually it had tentacles to computer systems in other countries.(3) The ARPANET also supported the sharing of human resources and enabled people to interact. |  | | First the ARPANET was used to develop TCP/IP. |  | | For example, an editorial in the ARPANET News in February, 1974 explains: Inherent in the concept of a resource sharing computer network is the idea of a cooperative, collaborative working mode. |

 | | The ARPANET program as proposed to Congress by Roberts was to explore computer resource sharing and packet switched communications and had nothing to do with nuclear war or survivability. |  | | It was at this meeting that Wes Clark suggested the use of mini-computers for network packet switches instead of using the main frame computers themselves for switching. |  | | Even though this Rand work was based on this premise, the ARPANET and the Internet stemmed from the MIT work of Licklider, Kleinrock and Roberts, and had no relation to Baran's work. |

 | | The great minds of the ARPANET went back to the drawing board to try and develop a new system and method of connecting the computers together so that data could still be transmitted, even when a computer in the middle of the transmission path might be down. |  | | The network topology was set up in a configuration such that if data from a computer at UCLA was requested to go to Utah, it would need to pass through the IMP in Stanford. |  | | While the third and forth IMP were being installed, Telnet was developed to allow users to log in to other computers connected in the network of IMP’s (the new ARPANET). |
