A Brief History of the Internet and the World Wide Web
Subodha Kumar, Georgia Perakis · Management and business review. · 2022
How did a scientific movement invent the Internet and how did that invention grow into a tool that is difficult to envision living without, particularly during the current pandemic? Subodha Kumar and Georgia Perakis describe how it all began with Leonard Kleinrock’s invention of packet switching technology and the creation of ARPANET in 1969. They then trace how Berners-Lee conceptualized the World Wide Web as an easy-to-use global system for sharing information.
