COMPUTER NETWORKING

Detailed explanation-1: -The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. Originally funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network.

Detailed explanation-2: -Packet switching allowed computers to connect to each other over a network called ARPANET, the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. When did the internet start? In 1969, the first computers communicated over ARPANET from UCLA to SRI in California.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) was the first wide-area packet-switched network with distributed control and one of the first networks to implement the TCP/IP protocol suite. Both technologies became the technical foundation of the Internet.

Detailed explanation-4: -The U.S. Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) was the first public packet-switched computer network. It was first used in 1969 and finally decommissioned in 1989. ARPANET’s main use was for academic and research purposes.
