<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I am looking for state-of-the-art literature on the origins of the<br>
Internet as an engineering project. So far, I have found the following<br>
sources (several of them from this web page:<br>
<a href="http://www.caslon.com.au/netprofile3.htm" target="_blank">http://www.caslon.com.au/netprofile3.htm</a>). Some are dated and more<br>
journalistic than academic in nature and "granularity". My intent in<br>
gathering this literature is to get a better sense of the exact role<br>
played by military interests (apart from funding) in Internet development.<br>
We read too often about "the military origins" of the Internet, and even<br>
more often the story of "a military command and control system that would<br>
continue to operate in the event of nuclear war" (Tehan, 1999). To what<br>
extent is this representation faithful to reality? For instance, Hughes<br>
(1998) notes: "The military funded the ARPANET, but computer scientists<br>
and engineers presiding over the project pushed military goals to the<br>
background, emphasizing the spread of computer utilization and the<br>
development of computer networks as ends in themselves."<br>
