| | Douglas Englebart is known for many technical innovations that contemporary computer users take for granted: the outline processor, the windowed user interface, the mouse, and one with which his name hasn't generally been associated, electronic mail. | | | Englebart's work was a rival to that of J. Licklider, whose projects in artificial intelligence sought "man/computer symbiosis" rather than mere augmentation. | | | At SRI, Englebart's Augmentation of Human Intellect Project explored the technical and social aspects of computing. |
