Leonard Kleinrock, 4. Robert Kahn, 5. Vinton Cerf. These last four worked together and developed the 'internet concept' between themselves. i.e. Larry Roberts and his team created the ARPANet, which was the first significant implementation of Leonard Kleinrock's theories on packet switching, a fundamental feature of (a) the modern internet and (b) ARPANet, the first large network form of the internet.
