	Birth of a Blueprint: Internet Father, Leonard Kleinrock
		In honor of Kleinrock's pioneering work, UCLA was chosen to receive the first "node" of the network, and the professor quickly assembled a staff of 40 graduate students, researchers, programmers and other faculty to prepare for the Labor Day 1969 connection between a refrigerator-sized "Interface Message Processor" and a smaller department computer.
		Kleinrock was given the task of measuring and testing the network once it was up and running, so he organized his team in several units (such as "hardware" and "software") and gave them various problems to work on, like creating a "host-to-host protocol" to create a common language to operate applications on different computers.
		Though Kleinrock is proud of his role nurturing talent and ideas, he remains disappointed in the systemic ability of local universities to think in terms of venture capital and their value to the local economy.

	The Chronicle: Information Technology: February 18, 2000
		Kleinrock was using a type of probability theory known as queuing to understand the optimal ways of sending and receiving messages inside large computer networks -- which, at that point, didn't exist.
		Kleinrock was at U.C.L.A. and had signed a contract with ARPA to record and analyze the internal workings of the fledging network.
		Kleinrock's students was Vinton G. Cerf, a member of the group that wrote the network-control software for the Arpanet, and who later, with Robert E. Kahn, wrote the communications software that became the standard TCP/IP protocol used on the Internet.

		Kleinrock is arguably the world's leading authority and researcher in the field of computer network modeling, analysis and design and a father of the Internet.
		Kleinrock had to convince them that joining would be a win-win situation for all concerned, and managed to get reluctant agreement in the community.
		Kleinrock's goal this time is to help formulate the guidance needed to bring the networking technology that he pioneered to society and industry for the greater good of this country and of the world.

		Stella Schuler Kleinrock, a founding co-director of the Freda Mohr Center for seniors, and Dr. Leonard Kleinrock, a UCLA professor and one of the early developers of the Internet, will be honored next Thursday by UCLA Hillel.
		Of course, Kleinrock is quick to admit there is a dark side to the Net: "Hacking, spamming, pornography, pedophilia, terrorism, destruction of property, invasion of privacy, all exacerbated by an enormous degree of anonymity," he says.
		The problem is that Kleinrock and his colleagues did not have security in mind when they developed the Net in the 1960s: "Sharing and openness was the way," he recalls, adding that the approach ultimately led to the vast growth and creativity of the Net.

	LA Weekly: Cyber Feature: Who’s Your Daddy?
		Kleinrock’s modest office at his Internet-gateway company, Nomadix, in Santa Monica, is filled with various plaques, paperweights, lucite blocks and something on a brass stand that looks like an upended suspension bridge, all of which pay tribute to his status as one of the fathers of the Internet.
		Kleinrock’s work is so fundamental, many of his explanations are followed by the phrase “but they weren’t calling it that yet.” Take that 1962 dissertation for example.
		Kleinrock’s work would eventually be recognized by Larry Roberts, then the head of computer and communications research at ARPA, the Defense Department’s Advanced Research Projects Agency, formed by President Eisenhower using Sputnik as the excuse for the interdepartmental science agency he had long advocated.

	Stanford Symposium Stirs Debate - 5/21/2001 - Wireless Week - CA82931 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		PALO ALTO, Calif.–Decades ago, Leonard Kleinrock, aka inventor of the Internet (sorry, Al Gore), claimed that computer networks eventually would become so pervasive that they'd be ubiquitous, always on, accessible anywhere from any electronic device and so easy to use they'd function in an invisible way.
		Kleinrock says the Internet got most of that right, but it missed a couple features: It evolved as a desk-bound technology that's not easy enough to use and is not yet invisible.
		Nomadic computing, Kleinrock says, will accomplish this in part by pushing more intelligence out to the edge of the network and closer to the end-user, regardless of the access device used.

		Unlike circuit switching, which sends messages serially, message block (packet) switching used specific algorithms that allowed individual data packets to arrive at their destinations by a variety of routes while maintaining the minimum of latency.
		In the paper Kleinrock describes networks consisting of “nodes that receive, sort, store, and transmit messages entering and leaving by way of the links.” Kleinrock published this idea for the first time in the RLE Quarterly Progress Report in July 1961.

		At a time when telecommunication services were unpredictable at best and prohibitively expensive, Kleinrock came up with a way to use telephone lines to connect computers on an "on-demand" basis.
