[9] [20] Conceived of and named the concept for data communication networks (1965–66). [21] [22] Many of the wide-area packet-switched networks of the 1970s, including ARPANET, were similar "in nearly all respects" to his original 1965 design.

Logic Theorist is a computer program written in 1956 by Allen Newell, Herbert A. Simon, and Cliff Shaw. [1] It was the first program deliberately engineered to perform automated reasoning , and has been described as "the first artificial intelligence program".
The history of computer science began long before the modern discipline of computer science, usually appearing in forms like mathematics or physics. Developments in previous centuries alluded to the discipline that we now know as computer science. [ 1 ]
[9] [15] (Minsky later joined McCarthy at MIT in 1959.) In 1958, he proposed the advice taker, which inspired later work on question-answering and logic programming. In the late 1950s, McCarthy discovered that primitive recursive functions could be extended to compute with symbolic expressions, producing the Lisp programming language. [16]
