Robert Kahn (computer scientist) Bob Kahn (born 1938) is an American electrical engineer who, along with Vint Cerf, first proposed the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), the fundamental communication protocols at the heart of the Internet. In 2004, Kahn won the Turing Award with Vint Cerf for their work on TCP/IP.
Robert Kahn, American electrical engineer, one of the principal architects, with Vinton Cerf, of the Internet. In 2004 they won the A.M. Turing Award for their ‘pioneering work in internetworking, including the design and implementation of the Internet’s basic communications protocols, TCP/IP.’
Kahn became Director of IPTO in 1979, serving until 1985. He helped guide the changeover of ARPANET sites from the original NCP protocol to TCP/IP in 1983. Also in 1983, Kahn initiated ARPA’s Strategic Computing Initiative, a billion-dollar research program that included chip design, parallel computer architectures, and artificial intelligence.
20 Apr 2024 · In the mid-1960s, Robert Kahn began thinking about how computers with different operating systems could talk to each other across a network. He didn’t think much about what they would say to one another, though.
Robert (Bob) Kahn, born 23 December 1938, is an American internet pioneer, engineer and computer scientist who, together with Vint Cerf, invented the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), which make up the fundamental architecture at the heart of the Internet.
14 Jun 2024 · Together with Vint Cerf, Kahn is known as "the father of the Internet." Shortly after graduating, Kahn joined the research firm BBN, where he was responsible for system design of the ARPANET, the first wide-area packet-switched network.
Dr. Robert Elliot (Bob) Kahn, born 23 December 1938, is an American internet pioneer, engineer, and computer scientist who, together with Vint Cerf, invented the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), which make up the fundamental architecture at the heart of the Internet. Kahn laid the open architecture foundations ...
