WEBCASTS MAY 17-20 – IEEE / PCI i50 Triple Milestone Celebration
From May 17 to May 20 2024 the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in collaboration with People Centered Internet (PCI) is holding three events that will celebrate three ‘Milestones’ in the development of the Internet. The first Milestone celebrates the 50th anniversary of publication of an IEEE technical paper describing TCP, a key component enabling the Internet’s reliability. The second Milestone is for the IEEE 802 Standards Committee, which manages the rules by which Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and multiple wireless specialty networks (e.g., CCC, CSA, FIRa, Wi-SUN, Thread Group) operate. The third Milestone is for the PageRank Algorithm and the Birth of Google.
