Article Review The Design Philosophy Of The Darpa

Summary of The Design Philosophy of DARPA Internet Protocols Paper Name Institution Introduction The The Design Philosophy of DARPA Internet Protocols Paper was written by David D. Clark in the year 1988, with an aim solving the problems that existed in the TCP/IP that was in use by the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency. The Defense Advanced Research Project Agency is a US military advanced research agency whose main work is to develop new technologies for the military. Computer networking is one of the key successes of the agency. During its early development, computer networking was marred with problems which made it unreliable for use in the military operations. The DARPA is funded the US government to carry out research projects that will lead to the development of technologies that will ensure that the US military maintains its superiority and to avoid technological surprises by other countries of the world. The main goal of the paper was divided into fundamental goals and second level goals for improvement of the TCP/IP internet protocol that was in use at the time (Clark, 1988). The fundamental goals of the paper were the development of effective techniques for multiplexed utilization of the interconnected networks
