TCP / IP Protocol inventor G-CERF: Why do I give up patents?
Mao Jianghua If you are an IT person, you don't know Dr. Vinton G. Cerf, but you can't know TCP / IP; if you are not an IT person, you don't know TCP / IP, but you can't know Internet; if from 1973, Vinton G. Cerf and his partner began to apply TCP / IP application as patents, the world's richest will be Bill Gates? "The world has more than 1 billion people in using the Internet." Vinton G. Cerf said, "said that when studying TCP / IP more than 30 years ago, we did not expect this technology to be so widely used." Vinton G. Cerf is sitting in front of you. The 62-year-old American American, known as "the father of the Internet", also covered his vitality and handsome. When talking, I like to look at you, look very focused; he loves gestures, fast and appealing. "Application for patents from the actual point of view, if new technologies are not free and free, people will go away from us." Vinton G. Cerf insists that one of the reasons for the success of the Internet today is to him and Robert E. Kahn did not apply for a patent and treat TCP / IP as private property. In 1973, Vinton G. CERF and ROBERT E. Kahn made an important decision when designing the Internet, and be sure to open the communication between the computers and the computer; in 1975, when the Internet, two people began to set up the internet. Unanimously decided to contribute this gift to people, let everyone share freely. Although the world is in the peak period of the cold war, it is worthy of fear that the US Department of Defense in cooperation with Vinton G. Cerf and Robert E. Kahn does not limit them and other regional sharing technologies. And they also spent ten years of time promoting this new technology, in a variety of ways to persuade people to try to use it. "The Internet has been born to now for 35 years. The huge change is that we will expand their ideas for decades ago and apply it extensively." Vinton G. Cerf said. As the US MCI (the world's earliest US Communications, US Communications Company, 98-year-old purchase of the World Tong Company), Vinton G. Cerf said that he value his scientific research. He said: "First, I am a scientist." Vinton G. Cerf is extremely cherished this title. When the reporter mentioned some honors in the scientific community he got, Vinton G. Cerf even excitedly showing the red small medal he did not at the chest. That is December 1997, President Clinton is the contribution of the United States National Technology Medal for the establishment and development of Vinton G. Cerf and Robert E. Kahn for the establishment and development of the Internet. In a variety of important occasions, he wear it. "The Internet has been facing struggles and challenges" Vinton G. CERF said: "The Internet has been faced with struggles and challenges." But he firmly believes that any struggle and challenge is a process of energy accumulation and release. He said: "We have been overcome such or such obstacles, as if you are going to the top, climb to the top, then fall, release energy." In 1968, a single company has already shared a computer. From 1973, there were three networks associated with the US computer, the first is the network used in the United States, which is the US Department of Defense to contact the US research institution. The second is a network that increasing the radio implementation of the mobile communication function. The third is the Atlantic network, which is used in the United States and the Atlantic. The original intention of Vinton G. Cerf and Robert E. Kahn engaged in Internet research is to merge three nets.
From 73 to 83 years, the Internet did not receive a large-scale use; 83 years to 93 years is a network big bombing process, and the users doubled ten years. Vinton G. CERF believes that on the one hand, MCI starts a driving role. Object of fiber network communication began in 86; more importantly, from 89 years, the United States allows technical applications for high-end research to commercial applications use. However, "all kinds of struggles in promotion have been constantly." Vinton G. Cerf said. First, before TCP / IP technology, people have interconnected technology (ARPA), although it is not enough to support 100,000 computers, people who use old ARPA technology will inevitably resist TCP / IP technology. Vinton G. Cerf and his partners use all kinds of people to persuade people who use old technologies to try to accept new technologies. Second, and the standardized organization ISO has conducted long-term struggles and negotiations. At first, the standardized organization did not accept TCP / IP technology until 78 years of standardization, in fact, the standardization organization also introduced a set of open interconnected architectures. From 83 to 93 years, Vinton G. Cerf and his partners are struggling with people who want to use a standardized organization to launch an interconnected architecture. "In our opinion, this open interconnect architecture is just a lot of files." Vinton G. Cerf said, "is not feasible during use. There is no practical application, the market is not formed." The new technology that has an endless new technology is to replace TCP / IP, and the new transmission technology claims to replace Internet transmission technology. "But it did not implement it." Vinton G. Cerf said, "When invented and designing TCP / IP, we do very carefully. It can be architected in some new technologies, such as ATM, asynchronous transmission, such as Saiding our system, you can learn from new technologies, making the entire system constantly perfect. "So how can these new technologies achieve sustainable development?" Vinton G. CERF believes that the key is to establish a model of an academic, application, and governments, support each other. Only by helping the three help can make new technologies continue to update during development. In fact, currently, the hotspot for Internet functions is to carry voice communication, but speech transmission services on the Internet face two new issues: First, the challenge of government regulation, the second is the challenge of the economic interest. "Only after overcoming these new challenges, you can provide various forms of communication services through the Internet, bringing the Internet into a new stage." Vinton G. Cerf said. With the use of the Internet, it is increasingly widely used, and people's dependence is getting bigger and bigger. "This means that we should do better in two aspects, one is the security of the network, and then one is the reliability of the network." Vinton G. Cerf said, "security and reliability is the most basic for the future. Two thresholds, otherwise this architecture will not survive. "Vinton G. CERF believes that the Internet can be further widely operated, but also depends on whether the government's strategy and policy are gradually meticulous and perfect. For example, if there is a critical network, what institution is solved; in terms of business transactions, if the two sides have a dispute, who will solve it; if there is any money to trade on the Internet, if there is money, should it be taxable? Who should pay? "I am optimistic about IPv6 in China" "China is beautiful and mysterious." Vinton G. Cerf said, from 1997, he came to China five times, in seven years, he personally felt IT industry response China's rapid development.
"China has become a very important role in the world's Internet field." In Beijing and Shanghai Hotel, Vinton G. Cerf can enjoy the convenience brought by broadband Internet access; and Shanghai skyscrapers and shoulders are more Let Vinton G. Cerf feel the booming machine of the entire business environment. "I think China should try to use IPv6." Vinton G. Cerf said. "And, I am optimistic about the development of IPv6 in China." On the one hand, China is one of the most people using the Internet in the world, and the number of potential networks will be more. "China's population is so many, if each Chinese applies for a domain name, two-thirds of the domain name will be occupied by the Chinese." Vinton G. Cerf said. On the other hand, China has a more interested interest in the innovation and use of new technologies and new ideas than any country, and China has now become the world's most important Internet manufacturing base. "For example, an Internet company of my directors gave all manufacturing services to China, producing products for fiber optic network development in China." More importantly, in 2004, the Chinese government launched the next generation of network demonstration projects. The next generation of the Internet will be quickly advanced. Regardless of NGN, or NGI is based on IP. Therefore, China's CNGI officially entered the implementation phase on September 3, marking large-scale promotion of IPv6 for application, making IPv6 commercial avatars will become possible. Vinton G. Cerf believes that IPv6 makes us load a lot of things on the Internet and develop more applications. On the other hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, manages and controls such devices. "In the future, voice and video transmission will become a very ordinary functional component, which affects the operational model of most telecommunications companies." Vinton G. Cerf said, "but not ordinary is its transmission tool, it makes it People are connected to each other. "" China will definitely have the opportunity to become leaders, "Vinton G. Cerf said. He believes that the new road is the best description of IPv6 applications, such as small devices, mobile phones, PDAs, etc. At this point, China, Japan, the United States is standing on the same running line, and China's new users are very large, and the scale will not become a problem. In addition, in addition to new attempts, IPv6 can continue in an old application mode. For example, e-mail, you can continue to apply IPv6. However, Vinton G. Cerf reminded China to truly market promotion, IPv6 will also encounter a lot of problems. The routers between the operators are different, and there will be a standardized test problem for routers. "For example, Huawei, can it be interoperable with Cisco?" Vinton G. Cerf looked at the reporter. Interview notes the father of the Internet, "Harri Potter" and "Rings" commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Chinese Internet, when the leader gave an exclusive interview with Vinton G. Cerf, I was excited and nervous, to interview an influence of human processes Important legendary characters, the language will not become an obstacle to communication. At 9 o'clock on September 14, when the white hair, white bearded Vinton G. Cerf appeared, I immediately liked this US old man, and he had a temperament similar to Harry. He wears a deep gray suit, with a red deep gray dot tie, don't have a red small badge in your chest, which is very neat and gentleman. More importantly, his light gray eyes focused on you, looked at you, stalking, as if he fully understood what the question you mentioned. Although his only Chinese sound is "thank you". Vinton G. Cerf has two hobbies, reading and collecting wine bottles. "I like novels, science fiction, characters, history books.
