This groundbreaking Harvard Ph.D. dissertation by Bob Metcalfe led directly to his invention of Ethernet and contributed significantly to the TCP/IP protocol suite developed by Vint Cerf and others. This dissertation remains a penetrating mathematical exposition of the fundamental packet switching techniques employed by both TCP/IP and Ethernet. Hard-core techies interested in either technology, as well as computer history buffs, will find this material fascinating.
