From 1983 to 1987, two teams of scientists and engineers worked to overcome the technical, financial, and geographic obstacles to set up an email connection between China and the interna- tional CSNET. One team was centered around Werner Zorn at Karlsruhe University in the Federal Republic of Germany. The other team was under the general guidance of Wang Yuenfung at the In- stitute for Computer Applications (ICA) in the Peo- ple’s Republic of China. The project succeeded based on the scientific and technical skill and friendship, resourcefulness and dedication of the members of both teams. The first successful email message was sent on Sept 20, 1987 from Beijing to computer scien- tists in Germany, the U.S. and Ireland.

  • Histories of the Internet and the Web
    LIVING BOOKS ABOUT HISTORY VALÉRIE SCHAFER & ALEXANDRE SERRES HISTORIES OF THE INTERNET AND THE WEB “There are half a dozen books on the Internet in existence, written by people who were not there when it was developed. It is tempting to begin a piece of work on the subject by quoting the old adage: ‘ Everything you know is wrong!’” (Jacques Vallée, Au Coeur d’Internet, Balland, 2004, p. 20). Just fifty years ago, in 1966, Charles Herzfeld released to the Advanced Research Projects Agency the funds which would allow the IPTO department (Information Processing Techniques Office) to launch the Arpanet project; twenty-five years ago, in 1991, the British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee announced the invention of the Web on line in Newsgroups - the discussion 1 forums of the Usenet community ; twenty years ago, in 1996, Brewster Kahle founded Internet Archive, an organisation whose stated aim was to archive the World Wide Web... The history of the Internet is a recent one, focused on a permanently-moving object that is neither 2 finished nor fixed . This history must also confront the living memories of those involved, and the way this innovation is viewed by contemporary society – for many people it is the embodiment of the “digital revolution” – as well as the more or less wide definitions of its limits. So as not to discriminate between the different meanings and approaches to the Internet and its history, this anthology reports on a variety of historiographical trends and research work. Some of them limit their frame of reference to the network of networks and its protocol aspects.
