Vint Cerf is an American computer scientist, called the Father of the Internet for his contributions to the development of the Internet.
There is no doubt that the Internet has become an essential part of our daily lives, and the most important things to all people of all ages all over the world, but there are few who know who is the inventor of the Internet, the inventor of the Internet is an American scientist named Vint Cerf with his friend Bob Kahn.
Birth and the emergence of Vint Cerf:
Vint Cerf was born in the twenty-third of June 1943 in the United States, was awarded the title of Father of the Internet many of his contributions to the establishment and development of the Internet, it has made Vint Cerf study and graduate from several universities who are Stanford University, and the University of California, and the University of Los Angeles.He studied mathematics at the University of "Stanford" of America, where he later went to work as an engineer in systems and software in the famous company "IBM".
Vint Cerf's life:
At the beginning of his life he was a program manager at the Advanced Defense Research Projects DARPA and funded many groups for the development of Internet Protocol Suite technology, when the Internet began to move into the business in the late eighties he moved to EMC company where he was instrumental in the development of the first system commercial e-mail, "MCI mail" connected to the Internet.
TCP / IP is tested through three types of networks developed by DARPA and the year 1981 Jon Postel published a transition plan to deport about 400 servers from the NCP protocol to TCP / IP, where Cerf says that in the early seventies no one of the participants in the development of those nascent technology thought he will succeed to become what it is today and spent ten years of experimentation and dissemination of basic techniques and then began to consolidate the network mode and entering the commercial area so we are now witnessing the widening scope of the Internet and circulated to all the world the level of individuals.
invention of "TCP / IP" protocol:
Surf" and "Bob Kahn" joined in the invention of the most popular contact protocol around the world now "TCP / IP" which is responsible for connecting all devices to each other, "Vint Cerf" wishes with some of his colleagues to Connect PC machine to another without the need for different connections, only send information that you receive from machine to a specific machine simply and quickly and easily.
When "Surf" and "Bob Kahn" managed to do it send craftsman "O" and "L" and two letters which used by the person at that time within the word "Log On" to enter into the computer world, and lost contact after that the message cut 500 km but it was a very successful step approach each protocol invented the famous "TCP / IP" after the technique used to send the message development.
What is TCP / IP protocol:
In brief it is the Transmission Control Protocol and Internet protocol is named Acronym TCP / IP standard is a collection developed protocols at the end of the seventies of the last century and the Defense Advanced Research Projects "Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency" shortcut "DARPA", as ways to communicate between different types of computers and computer networks.
The TCP / IP protocol is the motor nerve of the Internet, and this is what makes it the most popular networked protocols on earth
Vint Cerf ideas:
The idea of the Internet to Vint Cerf at first when he thought and his friend Bob Kahn about how they can connect a computer to another without human interface, but only through the first machine to send a message, and then the second machine read it and they succeeded, and with the passage of time enables both Cerf and his friend Bob to write a basic program, and then came to be known as the internet and by that both Cerf and Bob Kahn became a famous in the history of humanity and record whose names in contemporary modern history.
Vint Cerf see that learning programming is something important, especially in the schools, and he believes that learning computer programming should be compulsory at the secondary level and see that each student has to learn the program works alone.
Cerf see that Google Inc. under intense competition and that's what worries him and always urges workers in Google Inc. on the continuous development in order to always be more than the competitors by more than one step.
The latest projects supported by the Inter Bonior Google or Google for entrepreneurs and is a project that provides entrepreneurs and business owners of educational services and ideas and provides them with a network of contacts useful to them in their work.
