Beginning in 1962, Licklider developed his "Galactic Network" concept, referred to as an expansive network of computers that would offer its users access to data and programs from a series of sites.  After becoming the first head of [[DARPA]]'s computer research program in October 1962, Licklider successfully convinced his colleagues of the vision's merit in a organization-wide memo, referring to the idea as a "the main and essential medium of informational interaction for governments, institutions, corporations, and individuals.", and "open to all."<ref name="Garreau2006">{{cite book|last=Garreau|first=Joel|title=Radical Evolution: The Promise and Peril of Enhancing Our Minds, Our Bodies--and what it Means to be Human|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=YCuOKOD5nY4C&pg=PA22|year=2006|publisher=Broadway|isbn=978-0-7679-1503-8|page=22}}</ref>

Concurrently, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Kleinrock Leonard Kleinrock] pursued the feasibility of [[packet switching]], a method of delivery that sends information in small packets, or portions through different routes as a part of his doctoral research. This idea was a central component of the mechanics of the Internet.

Concurrently, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Kleinrock Leonard Kleinrock], a computer scientist at UCLA pursued the feasibility of [[packet switching]], a method of delivery that sends information in small packets, or portions through different routes as a part of his doctoral research. This idea was a central component of the mechanics of the Internet, and would lend a hand in the development of inter-network communication.
