The man who had attracted the capacity crowd
comprising SoC students, staff, alumni and
partners from elsewhere in NUS and beyond
was Dr Vinton Cerf, who has been described
as a father of the Internet.
Dr Cerf, who is currently vice president and
Chief Internet Evangelist for Google, is the
co-designer with Robert Kahn of TCP/IP
protocols and basic architecture of the
Internet.
His talk at NUS School of Computing covered
his perspective on the future trends of the
Internet in the 21st century, and how that
will change our lifestyles.
Dr Cerf followed his hour-long presentation
with a lively exchange of questions and
answers with the audience.
NUS School of Computing hosted the talk as
part of its 10th Anniversary Celebrations
events. |
