Cheriton School of Computer Science welcomes you to Vinton G. Cerf's Distinguished Public Lecture. \\n\\nAbstract: We will cover about 70 years of past and future Internet “history” — beginning with the Arpanet and moving along the terrestrial Internet trajectory, present and emerging policy and technical challenges and finally move to the interplanetary Internet project. Along the way, we will encounter anecdotes and personal recollections of the Internet’s evolution and projections for the future.\\n\\nIf there is time, we’ll touch on AI and heterogeneous and quantum computing. The Internet is more than a technology. It is a social and economic eco-system with many institutions created at need. It has brought to global attention the importance of accountability as well as personal privacy.\\n\\nRegistration: Please register by June 10th, 2024 at 11:55 pm. \\n\\nParking: Public parking lots C and H are closest to the Humanities Theatre.
