The military wanted to some
scientists for create a
communication network, a system centralized; because
in case of a war nuclear this
survived, even if some computers
are damaged.
1964 - BARAN Model
Baran had the idea of
created a network with
the form of a spider web
He created a hybrid using the star
topology and mesh, in which data
would travel dynamically,
"searching" the clearest path and
"waiting" if all routes were blocked.
This technology "packet switching"
was called.
1969 - ARPA
An association
created by the
government EEUU for

First, four computers connected
between different universities of the
country. Later, more a forty
computers connected, for this the
network It became obsolete
1982 - INTERNET
At that time the world of networks
was a bit chaotic, although ARPANET
was still the "standard". In 1982,
ARPANET adopted TCP / IP protocol
and at that time was set Internet
ARPANET continued to grow and open to the world, and
anyone with academic or research purposes could access the
network. Military functions broke away from ARPANET and
went to MILNET, a new network created by the United States.
1985 - CYBERSPACE
The Internet was already an established technology,
though known by a few. At that time the network was
basically textual, so the author was based on video
games. Over time the word "cyberspace" ended up being
synonymous with Internet.
1990 - WWW
In search of a storage system
and data recovery, are took the
idea of using hyperlinks
BROWSER
The new formula allowed logically link information and using networks. The content
programming in hypertext language "tags" that assigned a function to each piece of
content. Then, a computer program, an interpreter, were able to read those labels
for despeglar information. The interpreter would be known as "browser"
1993 - MOSAIC
Came the first version of the
browser "Mosaic" to access
more naturally to the WWW.
