4. Requirements
You need to post your four research posts to the blog on our Ning site before class on the day at which the
post is due (Feb 16, March 2, March 23, and April 6). The expected length of each research post is 2000 words
(about 4 pages). The instructor will provide guidelines for these posts in class. You’ll need to hand in the final
paper as hard copy on May 6 (4000 words). Lateness will be reflected in a lower final grade, half a letter for
each day late (i.e., a B+ paper late by one day will become B-, by two days C+ . . . etc.). Any papers more than
one week late will result in a failing grade. The presentation (15-20 minutes) will take place toward the end of
the semester.
Four Research blog posts on Ning 35% (Feb 16, March 2, March 23, April 6)
One presentation 15% (throughout semester)
One final paper 25% (hand-in as hard copy) May 6
In-class participation 25%

25. Packet Switching, Paul Baran 1962 at RAND, US Airforce
All the nodes in the network would be equal in status to all
other nodes, each node with its own authority to originate,
pass, and receive messages. The messages themselves would
be divided into packets, each packet separately addressed.
Each packet would begin at some specified source node, and
end at some other specified destination node.

26. “On Distributed Communication Networks,” March 1964
c) a network without central authority or single
outage point

29. 1965
Already in 1965, Fernando Corbato and his colleagues at
MIT developed a program to allow individual users to
swap messages on one single computer.
36. quot;In a few years, men will be able to communicate more effectively through a machine
than face to face...We believe that we are entering into a technological age, in which we
will be able to interact with the richness of living information -- not merely in the passive
way that we have become accustomed to using books and libraries, but as active
participants in an ongoing process, bringing something to it through our interaction with
it, and not simply receiving something from it by our connection to it. (53)quot;

protocol telling the computers how to share the airwaves.

56. CBBS (first BBS) January of 1978, Chicago was hit by
Ward Christensen the Great Blizzard of 1978
Many people did not have the Internet. They dialed in to CBSS directly via modem.
Users had to take turns accessing the system, each hanging up when done to let
someone else have access. Nevertheless, the system was seen as very useful, and ran for
many years and inspired the creation of many other bulletin board systems.
