MID 1960: First paper on packet switching theory.

1974: The TCP/IP protocols and models are being processed by Cerf/Kahn.
1980: IPv4 is introduced.
1983: ARPANET adopts TCP/IP. At this time, the ARPANET has 200 routers.
1984: NSF(National Science Foundation) funds a TCP/IP based backbone network. this backbone grows into the NSFNET, which becomes the successor of the ARPANET.
1995: NSF stops funding of NSFNET. The Internet is completely commercial.
