Publisher's Synopsis
The Internet computer network was born in 1969. It was created by a group of researchers from the US Department of Defense to establish a communication system with other government agencies. The idea was to develop a system that would answer the question: how could the authorities communicate after a nuclear war? The solution was to create a network that did not depend on a central organism, but was made up of link points of equal rank and with the same capacity to originate, transmit and receive messages. Should any of these nodes receive an attack or stop working, the rest of the network would continue to operate and the messages would reach their final destination.
