Internet that can use e-mail to keep in touch, and to investigate if there is something you do not understand has become an indispensable part of our lives. A movie that answers the simple question "Who made the Internet for the purpose of having the face on everywhere in life?"Who Invented the Internet? And Why?"Has been released and it is understood even if there is no professional knowledge of the Internet.

Who Invented the Internet? And Why? - YouTube


More than 40 years have passed since the Internet was invented.


Some people say that the Internet was invented by the United States who said that "I developed a network that can endure nuclear warfare", but that is a mistake.


The world's first communication network "ARPANET"According to one of the founder of ARPANET, by dividing the processing time of the CPU of one computer into user units, ARPANET can"Time sharing systemIt was invented as part of the process to optimize ".


Before ARPANET was invented, there was no network and a large computer named mainframe was used. The mainframe at that time was an inconvenient thing that could not connect more than one computer at the same time.


When the concept of time sharing is born and it becomes possible to connect more than one computer at the same time, engineers who wonder whether "communication done between computers can be done more easily and quickly" come out all over the world.


In the 1960s, in EnglandBritish National Institute for PhysicsThere was a commercial network developed by the company, but it was not widely used due to lack of funds.


However, the network developed by the UK National Physics Laboratory converts computer data into packets and sends them to another computer "Packet communication"We adopted a new communication method called.


At almost the same time as packet communication was born, research was conducted to realize a network that connects computers to each other in France, which is located across the sea from the UK, and researchers are working "Le InternetIt is said that it became the etymology of the Internet.


In the early 1970's, computer infrastructure developed, and various kinds of networks existed all over the world, but there was a problem that "different types of networks can not communicate with each other".


It solved the problem that different types of networks are unable to communicateTCP / IPis. With the advent of TCP / IP, by 1975 multiple networks can communicate with each other, which is said to be the beginning of the Internet.


Mail is indispensable for talking about the Internet. Mail was developed for ARPANET in 1972, and it occupied most of Internet traffic in 1976.


Although mutual communication of the network became possible, all communication is done on a text basis, and it was said that it was a difficult task even to identify the letters.


So it appeared in the 1980s at the European Nuclear Research Institute in Geneva, SwitzerlandTim Berners-LeeHe is.


Mr. Tim Bernards-Lee was working on a system that allows researchers to easily share research results and information.


Tim Bernards-Lee designed "http" "html" "url", enabling browsing on the Internet.


The world's first browser is "World Wide Web"Tim Bernards-Lee became the birthplace of the Web.


The world's first website established by Tim Berners-Lee "CERNIt was opened on August 6, 1991.


In this way the fundamental part of the Internet has been built and many telecommunications carriers enter the Internet as commercially valuable. Through the 1990s the Internet spreads all over the world.


The inventor of the Internet is the AmericanAl GoreThere are people who believe they are former vice president, but that is a mistake.


However, as advocated by former Vice President GoaInformation Super Highway ConceptIt was a fact that the Internet was explosively popularized.


The Internet is born for people who need communication and it can be said that human progress has occurred in the natural flow.


The Internet is a collection of ideas of technicians who are scattered around the world, not a single person.
