The IANA, or internet Assigned Numbers Authority, is the organization that has been managing IP addresses since even before it was known by an official name. A registry function that would become IANA was in place by the 1970s, managed by the famed Jon Postel (of USC's Information Sciences Institute). Today IANA is managed by ICANN, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. See the accompanying links for IANA, ICANN, and more on the history of IANA.
