Ethernet is Still Going Strong After 50 Years
The Xerox Palo Alto Research Center in California has spawned many
pioneering computer technologies including the Alto--the first
personal computer to use a graphical user interface--and the first
laser printer.
The PARC facility also is known for the invention of Ethernet, a
networking technology that allows high-speed data transmission over
coaxial cables. Ethernet has become the standard wired local area
network around the world, and it is widely used in businesses and
homes. It was honored this year as an IEEE Milestone, a half century
after it was born.
