OverviewXerox PARC is a research and development
company in Palo Alto with a distinguished reputation for its contributions to information technology and hardware systems
Founded in 1970 as a division of XeroxPARC has been responsible for such well
known and important developments as laser printing, Ethernet, the modern personal computer, GUI, object-oriented programming, ubiquitous computing, amorphous silicon applications
19
Introduction
History In 1969, Chief Scientist at Xerox Jack Goldman approached George
Pake, a physicist specializing in nuclear magnetic resonance about starting a second research center
PARC's West Coast location proved to be advantageous in the mid-1970s, when the lab was able to hire many employees of the nearby SRI Augmentation Research Center as that facility's funding from DARPA, NASA, and the U.S. Air Force began to diminish
20
Their philosophy
StrengthensFlexibilities
PARC was selected Palo Alto as the site, although the 3,000 mile buffer between it and Xerox headquarters in Rochester, New York
Afforded scientists at the new lab great freedom to undertake their work, the distance also served as an impediment in persuading management of the promise of some of their greatest achievements
Wide range of research field Innovation Services Content-Centric Networking Printed and Flexible Electronics Cleantech and Energy Big Data Clean Water Contextual Intelligence Design and Digital Manufacturing Health and Wellness Intelligent Automation
