Today we wish a very happy 45th birthday to the internet.
In truth, pinning down an exact date for the birth of the internet isn't really
possible, but some leading tech magazines suggest today's as good a day as any to celebrate...
It was on the 7th of April, way back in 1969, that the first RFC - Request For Comment - documents
were published.
RFC documents describe the theoretical foundations of the internet and interconnected computers.
The internet is something most of us, living in the 21st century, cannot go a day without...
so we'd like to take a look at where the wired world is headed from here on out.
To navigate us through, we are joined live in the studio by Dr. Moon Song-chun,...
Professor at the Graduate School of Managment at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science
and Technology.
Dr. Moon, it's great to see you back here.
Thanks for joining us.
Now, I think we've got 4G covered - most of us are connected on 4G and LTE.
The word is... internet standards are heading towards 5G and a new technology referred to
as IoT - or Internet of Things.
To be honest with you, I don't have a great grasp of what they are.
Could you help us?
Which IT company, would you say, has the leading role as
the standard setter in 5G technology?
What about in the Internet-of-Things?
Which companies are blazing trails?
Now, also marking an anniversary is what most of
us are familiar with - last
month marked the 25th anniversary of the invention of the World Wide Web.
What started as a way for scientists to share research has changed life worldwide forever.
Enlighten us.
What more lies ahead in the world of the worldwide web and beyond?
Dr. Moon Song-chun,...
Professor at
the Graduate School of Managment at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology...
thank you
for sharing your insights with
us this evening.
We appreciate it.
