Reinventing the Internet
Today’s Federal Computer Week includes a story about an NSF-funded research project being done by David Clark of MIT. Clark, according to FCW, will be conducting a preliminary study into what computer scientists can do to create a new Internet architecture. In the long run, it seems that this effort is an attempt to answer the question “If we knew back then what we know now, what would we have done differently?” Also from the story: “NSF’s agenda includes a proposal for creating a new office devoted to cyber infrastructure. But the agency’s tight budget could thwart such projects, some observers say.”
