History of Computer Network Technology
History of Computer Network Technology
Period of the 1940
The history of computer networking
technology originally sourced from the birth of the concept of computer
networks in the 1940s in the United States was initiated by a computer
development project MODEL I in Bell labs and Harvard University research group
led by a professor named Howard Aiken. Initially this project is only intended
to utilize computer devices that must be used simultaneously. To work on
multiple processes without wasting a lot of empty time, a process or often
called Batch Processing is created, so some programs can run on a computer with
queuing rules (Multi Tasking).
Period of the 1950
Then in the 1950s when the type of
computer began to develop until the creation of a super computer that can then
work better, then the computer must serve several places available (terminal),
because it turns out the concept of time-based. The distribution process is
known as TSS (Time Sharing System), therefore for the first time the form of
network (network) computer can be applied. In the TSS system itself, there are
several terminals connected in series to a computer or other device connected
on the host computer. In the process of TSS began to look fusion of computer
technology and telecommunication technology which originally developed
independently (alone).
Period of the 1960
US Department of Defense, U.S. The Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) decided to conduct research aimed at
connecting a number of computers to form an organic network in 1969, a research
program known as the ARPANET.
Period Year 1970
In 1970, there were more than 10 computers
that managed to connect with each other so that they could communicate with
each other and form a network, and in 1970 also after the workload increased
and the price of large computer devices began to seem very expensive, then
began to use process concepts distribution (Distributed Processing). In this
process some host computers work on a large work in parallel to serve multiple
terminals connected in series to each host computer. In the distribution
process absolutely necessary deep integration between computer technology and
telecommunications, because in addition to the process that must be
distributed, all host computers are obliged to serve the terminal in one
command from the central computer.
Period Year 1972
In 1972, Roy Tomlinson succeeded in
perfecting the e-mail program he created a year ago for the ARPANET. The
program is so easy to use, so it instantly becomes popular. In the same year of
1972, the icon at (@) was also introduced as an important symbol showing
"at" or "on".
Period Year 1973
In 1973, the ARPANET computer network began
to expand beyond the United States. The University College computer in London
was the first computer outside the United States to become a member of the
Arpanet network. In the same year of 1973, two computer experts Vinton Cerf and
Bob Kahn presented a larger idea, which became the forerunner of the
International Network (Internet) thinking. This idea was presented for the
first time at the University of Sussex. The next historic day was March 26,
1976, when the Queen of England managed to send electronic mail from Royal
Signals and Radar Establishment in Malvern. A year later, more than 100
computers joining the ARPANET formed a network or network
Period Year 1979 - 1981
Tom Truscott, Jim Ellis and Steve Bellovin, created the first newsgroups
named USENET (User Network) in 1979. Then in 1981, France Telecom created
something new by launching the first television phone, where people can call
each other associated with video links. As computers build networks, it takes
an official protocol that can be recognized and accepted by all networks. To
that end, in 1982 formed a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or better known
as Internet Protocol (IP) that we know today that we often use when being
configured an Internet network. Meanwhile, in Europe appeared a similar network
known as Europe Network (EUNET), where this network covers the territory of the
Netherlands, England, Denmark, and Sweden. This EUNET network provides USENET
email and newsgroup services.
Period 1984 - 1988
To uniform the address in the existing
computer network, then in 1984 introduced Domain Naming System or domain name
system, which we now familiar with DNS.Computer that is connected with the
existing network has exceeded 1000 computers more. In 1987, the number of
computers connected to the network jumped 10-fold to 10,000 more.
Computer network continued to grow in 1988,
Jarkko Oikarinen is a Finnish find and introduce Internet Relay Chat or better
known as IRC. where this technology can already allow two or more computer
users can interact directly with the messaging (Chatting)
Period 1990 - 1994
As a result, a year later the number of
interconnected computers jumped 10-fold. no less than 100000 computers form a
network. The mid-1990s were the most historic year, When Tim Berners Lee
designed a programe editor and explorer that could explore a single computer
device with each other by forming a network. and this program is called Waring
Wera Wanua or better known as the World Wide Web (WWW). Computers that are
connected to each other form a network has exceeded a million computers in
1992. And in the same year surfing term (surf).
