A.ARPA
B.NSF
C.NSA
D. none of these

Answer 1

Hint: The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network is abbreviated as ARPANET has been found to be as an early packet switching network. This is the first network to execute the protocol suite TCP/IP. Both this scientific invention became the technical foundation of the Internet. This will help you in answering this question.

Complete answer:
The ARPANET which is the abbreviation for the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. This was the first wide-area packet switching network with the distributed control and one of the first networks to execute the protocol suite TCP/IP. Both the technologies will be the technical foundation of the internet. The Advanced research projects agency (ARPA) of the United States Department of Defense originated the ARPA. The ARPANET project was generally established in 1990, because of the partnerships with the telecommunication and computer industry which has been mentioned as the way for the commercialization in future of a new world-wide network. This has been called the internet. The aim was to find the new computer technologies in order to meet the requirement of the military command and also control against nuclear threats and also to improve the military tactical and management decision making. Therefore the agency which started the project of the internet was originally by the ARPA.

Therefore, the correct option is option (A).

Note:
In 1981, the Access to the ARPANET was founded by the national science foundation (NSF). This has been given the fund by the computer science network (CSNET). The NSF was given the fund by the establishment of the national supercomputing centres at different universities in the early periods of 1981. They were given access to the network and network interconnectivity with the NSFNET project in 1986.
