 Xerox PARC - jason wu
Xerox would pioneer the field of personal computing.
Xerox would create the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) to help then venture into the still unstable computing business (Brown).
The research center was created to support Xerox’s new venture into computing, so having a computer was not an option, but rather a necessity.

 Encyclopedia4U - Xerox PARC - Encyclopedia Article
Xerox adapted the invention of the mouse from the user interface research of Douglas Engelbart at SRI ( Stanford Research Institute), of Menlo Park, California.
Xerox PARC was the birthplace of many foundations of modern computing, including many aspects of the Graphical user interface (GUI), the mouse
The work at PARC in the years since the early 1980s is often overlooked, but major work since then includes Ubiquitous computing aka Pervasive Computing, and Aspect-oriented programming to name but two.

Along with the development of Ethernet, Alto and research prototypes of networking protocols for distributed computing, this leads to the development of XNS, Xerox's robust, leading-edge networking protocol.

 Xerox in Discussions to Sell Palo Alto Research Center
Xerox did not turn many of Parc's inventions into viable products, but Parc had various claims to fame: the computer mouse, the user-friendly icons that make personal computers so attractive to consumers and Ethernet, which links computers at remote sites.
The Xerox Corp., which only days ago was fending off rumors of its impending bankruptcy, is talking to venture capitalists about selling its Palo Alto Research Center, which in the 1970s pioneered much of the technology for the personal computer industry.
Several Silicon Valley venture capitalists say Xerox has initiated talks with them about buying all or part of the Palo Alto Research Center on Coyote Hill Road, which is commonly known as Parc.

 Share...and Share Alike - KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT - Magazine - Darwin Online for Informed Executives
The team—led by researcher Danny Bobrow and including software engineer Bob Cheslow and researchers Mark Shirley and David Bell—found that it was indeed possible to build software that could do just that.
Our story begins with researchers working on artificial intelligence who wanted to see if they could replace the paper documentation that Xerox technicians used on the road with an electronic form.
Once the conversations with technicians revealed this gap in information sharing, the researchers realized that AI was the wrong approach.

 Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) Definition
However, computer research was only a small part of PARC's activities, and much work was also being carried out in other fields, including materials science and optics.
Ethernet networking was also developed in order to connect multiple Altos together to form a distributed system that shared information and resources (such as printers).
In particular, it sold only about 25,000 units of a computer based on the Alto, apparently due to its high price.

 Xerox PARC --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Among the many inventions of the 1970s, few are as important as the personal computer, and, because the Xerox Alto was developed in 1973, PARC can claim credit for having made the first one.
Many innovations in computer design were developed by PARC researchers, including the Alto, the first personal computer; the graphical user interface; the laser printer; &;
The Internet also has inspired new ways of programming.

 Nanotechnology
This will be essential if we are to continue the revolution in computer hardware beyond about the next decade, and will also let us fabricate an entire new generation of products that are cleaner, stronger, lighter, and more precise.
Many of the exponentially improving trends in computer hardware capability have remained steady for the last 50 years.

 George Pake, founder of Palo Alto Research Center, dies
George Pake, a National Medal of Science winner, university provost and founder of a California research center that played a key role in the development of computer technology, has died.
Pake left St. Louis in 1970 to become the first chief researcher at Xerox Corp.'s Palo Alto Research Center in Palo Alto, Calif. PARC played a major role in developing the first personal computer, the laser printer, e-mail and other computer technology.
Pake retired as Xerox group vice president in 1986 to become director of the Institute for Research on Learning in Palo Alto.

 Wired News: Mutating Bots May Save Lives
That's the ultimate vision of Mark Yim, a researcher working on the latest generation of shape-shifting robots at the University of Pennsylvania.
But a reconfigurable robot can change shape and adapt to the environment."
Instead of single-purpose robots, Yim and several research teams around the world are working on creating mutating machines made out of smart building blocks that can morph into different forms and perform a variety of tasks.

Xerox Scientists Develop First Generic Image Categorisation Technology
Scientists at Xerox Research Centre Europe (XRCE) have developed a system for the categorisation of generic digital images.
The program, which effectively ‘recognises’ a photograph of a car, for example, and categorises it, will bring benefits to business applications such as document and content management systems, by allowing users to filter and search for images as well as words.
