		Bell Telephone Laboratories or Bell Labs was originally the research and development arm of the Bell System[?], developing everything from telephone switches to specialized coverings for telephone cables, to the transistor.
		Bell Labs was 50 percent owned by Western Electric, and 50 percent owned by AT&T. The work done by Bell Labs was broadly divided into three categories: research, systems engineering and development.
		Bell Labs was also the original home to the UNIX operating system and the C programming language, developed by Brian Kernighan, Dennis Ritchie, and Ken Thompson in the early 1970s, as well as the C++ programming language developed by Bjarne Stroustrup in the 1980s.

	Bell Labs: A Brief Introduction
		Bell Labs was designed to bring together some 4,000 engineers and scientists working on improving telephone systems.
		The C programming language, which was written at Bell Labs in the early 1970s chiefly by Dennis Ritchie, is in many ways the most important of the hundreds of programming languages that have been developed in the world to date.
		Bell Labs' main facility consists of a vast complex of buildings located in the tranquil-looking town of Murray Hill, New Jersey, which is about 20 miles west of New York City.

		Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. was founded in 1925 as the research and development (R&D) branch of the Bell System.
		The Bell System's customers provided R&SE revenue via their monthly telephone bills, and Bell Labs systems engineers ensured that the United States had the world's best telephone system.
		Since Bell Labs (and WECo) remained with AT&T, a new R&D company called Bell Communications Research (Bellcore) was created for the seven new "Baby Bells" (Ameritech, Bell Atlantic, Bell South, Nynex, PacTel, Southwest Bell, and US West).

		In compiling the invitation list, the military services were asked by the Laboratories to nominate representatives of their own groups and of contractors whose work was of a nature that would benefit from more detailed information on recent progress in the Transistor field.
		Arranged at the request of the Military Services for their contractors and service laboratory personnel, the symposium was intended to advise industry of the progress made to date in exploiting the transistor.
		For the Bell Laboratories, the symposium was a progress report on what started as pure research on semiconductors and has become development and application of transistor electronics.

		From telephones to radar to computers, the scientists at Bell Labs have had a hand in the most important inventions of the 20th century.
		Founded by Alexander Graham Bell in the 1870s, by 1910, AT&T had grown from a tiny firm to a large corporation with several subsidiaries, one of which was the Western Electric Company.
		Although not all of their elements were invented at Bell Labs, it was there that the long and incredibly expensive development process brought them to maturity.

		The first, Bell Telephone Co., is soon superseded by National Bell Telephone Co., which is replaced with American Bell Telephone Co. These firms supply telephone instruments to Bell-licensed exchange companies across the country that, in turn, rent them to local subscribers.
		American Telephone and Telegraph Co. (AT&T) is established as a subsidiary of American Bell Telephone Co. Because the firm connects remote exchanges, it is popularly called the long-distance company.
		Cincinnati Bell and SNET, which were not wholly-owned subsidiaries of AT&T, carry on as distinct firms.

		The term "Baby Bell" -- synonymous with RBOC, or Regional Bell Operating Company -- indicates that Bell Atlantic was one of the companies tracing its heritage to the Bell System, which was a common name for the organizational structure of the American Telephone and Telegraph Co. (AT&T) prior to 1984.
		Bell Atlantic was one of the original seven RBOCs, or Baby Bells, that began operations in 1984.
		In 1993, Bell Atlantic proposed a merger with cable TV giant Tele-Communications Inc. -- a high-profile deal later terminated by Bell Atlantic, but one that dramatically accelerated the pace of change in the industry, making it clear that convergence of digital technologies and industry consolidation were the way of the future.

		This laboratory work led to a surprising discovery: The n-on-p cells were several times as resistant to energetic particle radiation as were comparable p-on-n cells.
		Several kinds of cells were exposed at Bell Laboratories and at various university research laboratories to a wide range of radiation dosages.
		He joined Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1930, and has worked on the development of proximity fuzes, radar bombing systems, broadband microwave radio systems, and various semiconductor devices, including radiation-resistant solar cells for the Telstar satellite.

	Sound Recording Research at Bell Labs
		Arnold also began a long-term research program to improved the quality of telephone sound, "to get an accurate physical description and a measure of the mechanical operation of human ears in such terms that we may relate them directly to our electrical and acoustical instruments..." (Arnold quoted in Fagen 1975 p.
		1925 - Henry C. Harrison at Bell Labs developed a matched-impedance recorder to improved the frequency range from the previous narrow 250-2,500 cycles range of acoustic recorders to a wider range of 50-6,000 cycles using the condenser mic, tube amp, balanced-armature speaker, and a rubber-line acoustic recorder with a long tapered horn.
		After a series of disappointing radio broadcasts by NBC of his orchestra in 1930-31 that failed to achieve the high quality of reproduction Stokowski was seeking, he helped Bell Labs set up a test room at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia.

	Western Electric Products - PicturePhone
		The idea behind the video telephone system presently being examined by the Air Force was succinctly stated in the 1960's print advertisement of Western Electric-"crossing a telephone with a TV set." The Western Electric advertisement showed the less-than-successful PicturePhone system which it produced in cooperation with ATandT's Bell Laboratories.
		In 1927, the Bell Telephone System sent live television images of Herbert Hoover, then Secretary of Commerce, over telephone lines from Washington, D.C. to an auditorium in Manhattan, N.Y. This was the first public demonstration in the United States of long-distance video transmission.
		The telephone probably ranks with television and the computer as one of the most significant devices of the 20th century - at least, in terms of its impact on the way we work and play.

	AT&T: History: The Bell System
		The fundamental principle, formulated by ATandT president Theodore Vail in 1907, was that the telephone by the nature of its technology would operate most efficiently as a monopoly providing universal service.
		At several later points, as political philosophy evolved, federal administrations investigated the telephone monopoly in light of general antitrust law and alleged company abuses.
		The percentage of American households with telephone service reached fifty percent in 1945, seventy percent in 1955, and ninety percent in 1969.
