Marc Lowell Andreessen [2] ( / n d r i sn/ an- DREE -sn ; born July 9, 1971) is an American entrepreneur, venture

capitalist, software engineer, and multi-millionaire best known as co-author of Mosaic, the first widely-used web browser,

and co-founder of Netscape Communications Corporation .[3]He founded and later sold

the software company Opsware to Hewlett-Packard. He is also a co-founder of Ning , a company that provides a platform

for social-networking websites. He sits on the board of directors of Facebook, [4] eBay ,[5] and HP, [6] among others.

Andreessen is a frequent keynote speaker and guest at Silicon Valley conferences. He is one of only six inductees in

the World Wide Web Hall of Fame announced at the first international conference on the World Wide Web in 1994 .[7][8]

Sir Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee , OM , KBE , FRS, FREng, FRSA (born 8 June 1955 [1]), also known as " TimBL ", is

an English computer scientist, MIT professor and the inventor of the World Wide Web . He made a proposal for an

information management system in March 1989 [2] and on 25 December 1990, with the help of Robert Cailliau and a young

student at CERN, he implemented the first successful communication between a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)

client and server via the Internet. [3]

Berners-Lee is the director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which oversees the Web's continued

development. He is also the founder of the World Wide Web Foundation, and is a senior researcher and holder of

the 3Com Founders Chair at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) .[4] He is a director

of The Web Science Research Initiative (WSRI), [5] and a member of the advisory board of the MIT Center for Collective

Intelligence .[6][7]

In 2004, Berners-Lee was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for his pioneering work. [8] In April 2009, he was elected a

foreign associate of the United States National Academy of Sciences. [9][10]

Vinton Gray "Vint" Cerf [1]

(/ s r f /; born June 23, 1943) is an American computer scientist, who is recognized as oneof [4] "the fathers of the Internet ", [5] sharing this title with American computer scientist Bob Kahn .[6][ 7] His contributions

have been acknowledged and lauded, repeatedly, with honorary degrees and awards that include the National Medal of

Technology, [1] the Turing Award, [8] the Presidential Medal of Freedom ,[9] and membership in the National Academy of

Engineering.

In the early days, Cerf was a program manager for the United States Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects

Agency (DARPA) funding various groups to develop TCP/IP technology. When the Internet began to transition to a

commercial opportunity during the late 1980s, [citation needed

]Cerf moved to MCI where he was instrumental in the

development of the first commercial email system ( MCI Mail) connected to the Internet.

Vinton Cerf was instrumental in the funding and formation of ICANN from the start. Cerf waited in the wings for a year

before he stepped forward to join the ICANN Board. Eventually he became the Chairman of ICANN. Cerf was elected as

the president of the Association for Computing Machinery in May 2012 [10] .

Cerf also went to Van Nuys High School along with Jon Postel and Steve Crocker; he wrote the former's obituary. Both

were also instrumental in the creation of the Internet as we know it (see articles).

Robert Elliot Kahn (born December 23, 1938) is a Jewish American Internet pioneer ,[1][ 2] engineer and computer scientist ,

who, along with Vinton G. Cerf , invented the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), the

fundamental communication protocols at the heart of the Jonathan Bruce Postel ( / p s t l/; August 6, 1943 October

16, 1998) was an American computer scientist who made many significant contributions to the development of

the Internet, particularly with respect to standards. He is known principally for being the Editor of the Request for

Comment (RFC) document series, and for administering the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) until his death.

The Internet Society' s Postel Award is named in his honor, as is the Postel Center at Information Sciences Institute . His

obituary was written by Vint Cerf and published as RFC 2468 in remembrance of Postel and his work. In 2012, Postel was

inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame by the Internet Society. [1]

Internet.

Eric J. Bina (born October 1964) is the co-creator of Mosaic and the co-founder of Netscape. In 1993, Bina along

with Marc Andreessen authored the first version of Mosaic while working as a programmer at National Center for

Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Bina attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, graduating from there with a Bachelor of Science degree

in Computer Science in 1986 and a Master's degree in 1988. He joined NCSA in 1991 as a programmer. There, Bina and

Andreessen started working on Mosaic in December 1992 and had a working version by March 1993. Mosaic was posted

to the Internet and is famed as the first killer application that popularized the Internet. He is one of only five (or six)

inductees in the World Wide Web Hall of Fame announced at the first international conference on the World Wide Web in1994 .[1][2]

Eric is reported to have been a very skilled programmer during the time that he worked on Mosaic, and possessed a

legendary work ethic that is characterized by several 48-hour stints of continuous software development. While there, his

unofficial job title (which appeared on his business cards) was "Unsung Hero."

In 1995, Bina and Andreessen were awarded the ACM Software System Award. [3]

In 2010, Bina and Andreessen were inducted into the University of Illinois Engineering Hall of Fame.

As of 2010, Eric Bina lives in Singapore with his wife and daughter, Natalie.

Dr. William Torres proposed connecting to the Internet as early as 1992. He approached former Department of Scienceand Technology Secretary Ricardo Gloria, who later agreed to fund this initiative putting Dr. Rodolfo Villarica in charge.This led to the creation of PH-Net. Internet-based email was already available at this time.

This is one of the stories featured in the Philippine Internet Review: 10 Years of Internet History where we interviewedDr. Torres.

We considered Dr. William Torres as the Father of the Philippine Internet . His persistence and patience paved the wayfor the Internet connectivity we are enjoying today. (Although some have referred to him as "grandfather". For us, thatmeant he is the "father".)

Joel Disini

Joel Disini used to work in Silicon Valley doing networking- and communications-related work. After 9 years in the US,

he came to the Philippines in 1989 and is currently the President of the E-Mail Company, one of the first Internet Service

Providers in the country.

Dr. Rodolfo Villarica , considered one of the Fathers of Internet in the Philippines (the other is Dr. William Torres),

belongs to the top ten most influential Filipinos on the Net in a poll conducted by The Web Philippines (read TWP's

article here ). As we celebrate the fifth year anniversary of Internet in the Philippines this March 29, it is only very timely

that we feature Dr. Villarica, one of the pioneers of Internet in the country. Below is an interview with Doc V conducted

by WIRED! Philippines.
