  1. 2004 Turing Award Winner Pioneered the Transmission Control Protocol and the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Bob Kahn George Gaytan CSCE 221-200 Spring 2014

  2. In short • Born in Brooklyn, New York to parents Beatrice Pauline and Lawrence Kahn • December 23rd, 1938 • Finished High School in 3 years • B.E.E. in E.E. –Queens/City College of NY-1960 • M.A./Ph.D in E.E. -Princeton-1962/1964 • Since his schooling, he has worked at places such as Bell Labs, MIT, BBN, DARPA, and even his own company CNRI. • Currently married to Patrice Ann Lyons, who actually made a CNRI publication alongside him

  3. What did Dr. Kahn do? • While at DARPA, he ran the largest computer research and development • He, along with Vint Cerf, helped form the basis for today’s internet as we know it • This basis is known as TCP/IP • What is TCP/IP? Well… Vint Cerf & Bob Kahn

  4. TCP/IP • When data is run through a network, it has to follow rules. The system of these rules are called protocols. • The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol(IP) are the primary protocols used for connecting hosts on the internet • The latest (IPv6-using 128-bit addresses) is what our modern internet runs on, though as of 2013, the last (IPv4-using 32-bit addresses) still carries the vast majority of traffic As of Jan. 1st,1983, the Internet was formed from ARPANET when all nodes adopted TCP/IP

  5. TCP/IP implemented • TCP operates at layer 4 • IP operates at layer 3 Open Systems Interconnection Model vs. TCP/IP 7.Network Process to application 6.Abstracts data to presentable format. (Encrypts/decrypts) 5.Manages sessions/Interhost communications 4.Reliably delivers packets between points on a network 3.Addressing/routing. Delivers datagrams between network points 2.Reliable direct point-point data connection 1.Direct point-point data connection

  6. After TCP/IP • In 1992, with his fellow “Father of the internet”, Vint Cerf, Bob Kahn founded the Internet Society • The Internet Society was established to “provide leadership in Internet related standards, education, and policy.” • Dr. Bob Kahn also has put a lot of time and effort into his nonprofit organization, Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI), as the sole Founder, Chairman, CEO, and President

  7. More about Dr. Kahn • From his father’s side, he is related to the futurist, military strategist, and systems theorist, “Herman Kahn”, known for analyzing consequences of nuclear war • He carries a Jewish heritage from both of his parents • His mothers heart condition led him to Queens and the City College of NY. • Bob Kahn attributes these institutions and their specialties (Queens for engineering and City College for Math/Physics) for getting him to where he is today

  8. Various Awards & Accolades • 2004 Turing Award (Won with Vint Cerf) • “For pioneering work on internetworking, including the design and implementation of the Internet's basic communications protocols, TCP/IP, and for inspired leadership in networking.” • 1997 Medal of Technology • 2001 Inducted as a Fellow of ACM • 2008 Japan Prize • 2012 Inducted into Internet Hall of Fame • 2013 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering
