05. Man-Computer Symbiosis by J.C.R. Licklider, 1960.

• Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) was created to lead the military's space programs
  
• Lick promoted computer science education, time-sharing systems, interactive computing, and comp. networks all in hopes giving attention to the new media that could come from computers (73).
• Lick urged colleges to link comps. together to create an online network = Internet
• Man-Computer symbiosis = cooperation btw. men and comps.
• AIMS:  Allow computers to "facilitate formulative thinking" (74) and use both comps and humans to make faster and more educated decisions.
• Lick looked @ a research study he had done in the past and realized that 85% of his time was spent doing things that comps. could do extremely quickly if they were programmed correctly (76).  Tasks include:  "searching, calculating, plotting..." (74).
