Beginning with his work at Bolt Beranek and Newman (BBN), Kahn discusses his involvement as the ARPANET proposal was being written, his decision to become active in the implementation of the network, and his role in the public demonstration of the ARPANET. The interview continues into Kahn's involvement with networking when he moves to IPTO in 1972, where he was responsible for the administrative and technical evolution of the ARPANET, including programs in packet radio, the development of a new network protocol (TCP/IP), and the switch to TCP/IP to connect multiple networks. This interview was recorded as part of a research project on the influence of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) on the development of computer science in the United States.en-USComputer historyARPANET (Computer network)Bolt, Beranek and Newman, inc.Computer networks -- United States -- ResearchComputer science -- United States -- ResearchFederal aid to research -- United StatesUnited States. -- Advanced Research Projects Agency. -- Information Processing Techniques OfficeOral History
