On September 2, 1969, in a lab at UCLA, data was transferred over a 15 foot cable connection between the two machines. This was the start of the internet.
Since app2us.com would not exist without the Internet, we decided to celebrate the occasion by interviewing the father of the Internet, UCLA Professor Leonard Kleinrock, who started it all. We are very fortunate that Professor Kleinrock agreed to interview with us, and share his memories from that day, 40 years ago. The interview focused on Internet, his research, and of course our favorite subject – US universities.
In response to a question, Professor Kleinrock said, “I am currently working on a number of exciting research problems. They include: nomadic and mobile computing; peer-to-peer networks; intelligent agents; smart search engines; distributed sensor networks and smart spaces; distributed spheres of influence; and more.” For the full interview, please visit the interview page .
