Printed in the United States of America Foreword Sincethesharing of resources in computer and communications technologyis a major purpose of EDUCOM, itis not unnatural that EDUCOM has closely followed computer network developmentsand their potential for higher education. The Fall 1970 Council Meetingwas devoted to the theoretical and practical aspects of national, regional, andlocal computer networks. Both the Spring Conference and the Fall CouncilMeeting in 1971 included consideration of computing networksas they have affected the financing of computing in higher education andas they have been used to obtain additional computing resources. The continued development of regional networksto the point at which they have become generally useful to educational institutionscoupled with the promise of nation-wide computer interconnectionon a cost-effective basis held out by the ARPANET technology seemedto make this a particularly appropriatetimeforafurtherdiscussionof computernetworks. Consequently, EDUCOM planned its 1972 Spring Conferenceas a forum for presentations, discussions, and informal meetings to review thepresent state and the future possibilities of networks for higher education. The promise of computer networks and their potential role in higher education was underscored by the announcement at the Conference ofthe National Science Foundation's plans for a trial National Science Network.In his presentation, Dr. D. Don Aufenkamp of the Office ofComputing Activities, described the trial network and its goals and invited the submission of preliminary proposals for experiments which might be conductedusing the trial National Science Network. It was visualized that the ex7erimentswould involve scientific research computing, the provision of scientific information services, and educational computing. The Spring Conference was planned as an intensive one-day meeting. The morning session consisted of five presentations, each of which examined the subject of networks for higher education froma different point of view. Dr. Larry Roberts, Director of Information Processing Techniques, ARPA, discussed the current status and future plans of ARPANET. Dr. Ruth Davis, Director, Center for Computing Science Technology, National Bureauof Standards, spoke on the practicalities of network use. Dr. D. Don Aufenkamp, Office of Computing Activities, National Science Foundation, described the Foundation's network plans.Lt.Col.Philip Enslow, Office of Tele- communications Policy, Executive Office of the President, spokeon the policy issues regarding networks with which the Office of Telecommu- iii nications Policy is concerned. Dr. Eric Manning, Professor of Computer ScienceattheUniversity of Waterloo, mosteffectivelysummarized computing activities north of the border, describing the plans announced by the National Science Council for a Canadian national network, a Canadian Universities Network (CANUNET), and the Ontario Universities Network (OUN). The afternoon was devoted to two sets of parallel discussion groups focusing on the technical and manageria: aspects of network use. We were particularly fortunate to have Dr. Sidney P. Marland, U.S. Commissioner of Education, present an address entitled, "Educational Technology: A Vote of Confidence," at the luncheon. Dr. Marland stressed the importance of applying existing technology to education not only in the interests of economy and efficiency, but also in the service of the basic human goals of education, a theme which was echoed in several of the afternoon discussion groups. Dr. Marland also described a number of projects funded by the Office of Education which apply computing technology to higher education and outlinedareorganization within the Office of Education which should permit a more effective focusing of attention on the problems of applying technology to education. The Program Chairman, Dr. William Atchison, Director of the Computer Science Center at the University of Maryland, who is also a Trustee of EDUCOM and Council Chairmanelect, did an outstanding job in planning the Conference. The enthusiastic participation of conferees in the discussion groups and the quality of the major presentations reflect the time and effort which he devoted to preparing the program. I want to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Atchison, the members of his Program Committee, and all of the panel participants who not only contributed their time at the Conference, but also cooperated in the preparation of their presentations for this proceedings.

While in most cases permanent computer communications networks have not developed to a practical stage, several models show great promise. Some of the universities which have participatedinthedesign and development of national networks have consideredtheproblems,costs,andbenefitsavailablefromthese arrangements. However, there has been little communication among other universities and colleges concerning the potential benefits or disadvantages to the educational community which will result from the more general use of an ARPA Network run by a civilian agency or from the development of alternative national networks for computing. The EDUCOM Spring 1972 Conference, "Networks for Higher Education," was planned as a forum for discussion of the conditions under which existing or planned national networks could provide significant resources for higher education. Larry Roberts in the first presentation of the morning, gives a brief description of the ARPA Network, an analysis of some of its characteristics, and a statement

    July 18, 2012 Chairman Julius Genachowski Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: Letter, CG Docket No. 09-158, CC Docket No. 98-170, WC Docket No. 04-36 Dear Chairman Genachowski, Open data and an independent, transparent measurement framework must be the cornerstones of any scientifically credible broadband Internet access measurement program. The undersigned members of the academic and research communities therefore respectfully ask the Commission to remain committed to the principles of openness and transparency and to allow the scientific process to serve as the foundation of the broadband measurement program. Measuring network performance is complex. Even among those of us who focus on this topic as our life’s work, there are disagreements. The scientific process happens best in the sunlight and that can only happen when as many eyes as possible are able to look at a shared set of data, work to replicate results, and assess its meaning and impact. This ensures the conclusions from the broadband measurement allow for meaningful, data-driven policy making. Since the inception of the broadband measurement program, those of us who work on Internet research have lauded its precedent-setting commitment to open-data and transparency. Many of us have engaged with this program, advising on network transparency and measurement methodology and using the openly-released raw data as a part of our research. However, we understand that some participants in the program have proposed significant changes that would transform an open measurement process into a closed one. Specifically, that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering a proposal to replace the Measurement Lab server infrastructure with closed infrastructure, run by the participating Internet service providers (ISPs) whose own speeds are being measured.

  • The Struggle for WHOIS Privacy: Understanding the Standoff Between ICANN and the World’S Data Protection Authorities
    The Struggle for WHOIS Privacy: Understanding the Standoff Between ICANN and the World’s Data Protection Authorities by Stephanie E. Perrin A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto © Copyright by Stephanie E. Perrin 2018 The Struggle for WHOIS Privacy: Understanding the Standoff Between ICANN and the World’s Data Protection Authorities Stephanie E. Perrin Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines the struggle over privacy rights in WHOIS, the public directory of registrants of Internet domain names. ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, is the non-profit corporation established by the U.S. government to run the Domain Name System and the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, functions essential for Internet operations. Through contractual obligation, ICANN requires registrars to collect and publish personal data in the WHOIS directory, contravening many national data protection laws. My research first asked how ICANN managed to avoid the demands of authorities mandated to enforce data protection laws. Analyzing extensive documentary records maintained by ICANN, I demonstrate that the organization refused to effectively accommodate privacy concerns in their policies. I found that, since its inception, ICANN rebuffed repeated complaints by data protection authorities that WHOIS requirements violate national laws and continue to avoid privacy compliance. I provide evidence of a clash of values in the emerging commercial Internet. Business enterprises with strong intellectual property interests, supported by the U.S. ii government, initiated the focus on an open WHOIS policy to ensure they could identify suspected copyright and trademark violators.

Bien que HAP ait été conçu à l’origine comme le protocole de niveau accès réseau pour le réseau haut débit satellite par paquet financé par DARPA/DCA, il est destiné à évoluer en interface standard entre des hôtes et des réseaux de paquets commutés par satellites tels que SATNET et TACNET (appelé aussi MATNET) ainsi que le Wideband Network. La spécification HAP présentée ici est une révision mineure de la spécification présentée au chapitre 4 du rapport BBN n° 4469, le "Rapport technique PSAT" et s’y substitue. À ce titre, les détails de la spécification actuelle sont pour la plupart très corrélés par les caractéristiques du réseau haut débit par satellites. Les révisions à la spécification figurant dans le "Rapport technique PSAT" incluent la définition de trois nouveaux types de messages de commandes (Demande de bouclage, Liaison sur le point de fermer, et NOP), un champ "Cause" dans les messages de commande Demande de redémarrage, de nouveaux codes Réponse non numéroté, et de nouvelles valeurs pour les codes d’établissement utilisés pour gérer les flux et les groupes.

  • Interface Message Processor
    Interface Message Processor The Interface Message Processor (IMP) was the packet switching node used to interconnect participant networks to the ARPANET from the late 1960s to 1989. It was the first generation of gateways, which are known today as routers.[1][2][3] An IMP was a ruggedized Honeywell DDP-516 minicomputer with special- purpose interfaces and software.[4] In later years the IMPs were made from the non-ruggedized Honeywell 316 which could handle two-thirds of the communication traffic at approximately one-half the cost.[5] An IMP requires the connection to a host computer via a special bit-serial interface, defined in BBN Report 1822. The IMP software and the ARPA network communications protocol running on the IMPs was discussed in RFC 1, the first of a series of standardization documents published by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Contents History BBN Report 1822 See also References Further reading External links History The concept of an "Interface computer" was first proposed in 1966 by Donald Davies for the NPL network in England.[6] The same idea was independently developed in early 1967 at a meeting of principal investigators for the Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) to discuss interconnecting machines across the country. Larry Roberts, who led the ARPANET implementation, initially proposed a network of host computers. Wes IMP team (left to right): Truett Thatch, Bill Bartell Clark suggested inserting "a small computer between (Honeywell), Dave Walden, Jim Geisman, Robert each host computer and the network of transmission Kahn, Frank Heart, Ben Barker, Marty Thorpe, Will [7] lines", i.e.
