From the Graveyard
You just read about Alcatel. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Newbridge Networks built ATM, Frame Relay and carrier access platforms. What became of it?
Newbridge Networks brought ATM, Frame Relay and carrier access platforms to Telecom. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by Alcatel for US$7.1B. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Alcatel today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
From the Technology Graveyard
You just read about Wi-Fi. Here is what it replaced:
Metricom Ricochet served 1994–2001. What ultimately replaced it?
Metricom Ricochet a mesh of pager-sized shoulder radios talking to pole-top microcell repeaters, delivering ~28-128 kbit/s wireless internet across a handful of cities. Its job passed to Wi-Fi — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
