At the time, ARPA was funding three separate computer research
projects and using three separate computer terminals to
communicate with them. Mr. Taylor said, No, we need a single
computer research network, to connect each project with the

went to see Charlie Herzfeld, who was the head of ARPA, and
laid the idea on him,” Mr. Taylor recalled in an interview for
this obituary. “He liked the idea immediately, and he took a

“The first funding came that month.” His idea led to the
Arpanet, the forerunner of the internet.
