Michael Silverton is an American computer scientist. BiographySilverton built the first all-optical Ethernet in the first mile networks in Palo Alto, California in 1999 to 2000, as the result of research and work that first began in 1991 in Phoenix, Arizona.{{citation needed |date= August 2011}} Fiberhood Networks, Inc, a Silicon Valley company championed by Silverton, and co-founded Sinuhe Hardegree and Jonathan Usuka, along with Christopher Lein, Chris Minchberg, Keith Cooley, and Joe Villareal, failed financially, but the engineering success and ensuing industry enthusiasm from the likes of Pirelli, Corning, France Telecom, Telstra, SBC Communications, and industry standards groups like the IEEE, all validated a proof of concept for this first field-operational implementation of its kind.{{citation needed |date= August 2011}} The Information superhighway term was used in the National Information Infrastructure effort of the 1990s. Silverton's 1997 Stanford University thesis described a "Information Superdriveway", extending early analogies of "internet as roadway" connecting consumers to the information city streets and global superhighways.[1] The company existed from about 1998 through 2001.[2] It partnered with PAIX, an early Palo Alto Internet exchange.[3] In 1999 Silverton became founding director of the Open Access Alliance of the Bay Area, a group advocating for independent Internet service providers.[4] In 2001 the company still planned to expand.[5] Silverton presented his experience to the Ethernet in the first mile (EFM) study group in March 2001.[6] After several years of industry collaboration, the standard was published in June 2004.[7] In 2004 he was interviewed as an early adopter of voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology.[8] References1. ^{{cite web |title= Information Superdriveway: Social Informatics of Deploying Residential Community Fiber Optic Computer Networks |author= Michael Silverton |work= STS Honors Thesis |year= 1997 |publisher= Stanford University |url= http://cgi.stanford.edu/group/STS/cgi-bin/theses.pl |accessdate= August 4, 2011 }} 2. ^{{cite web |title= Fiberhood Networks |work= company web site |url= http://fiberhood.net/ |deadurl= yes |archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20010922162851/http://fiberhood.net/ |archivedate= September 22, 2001 |accessdate= August 4, 2011 }} 3. ^{{cite web |title=PAIX: The original Neutral Internet Exchange |work= company web site |url= http://www.paix.net/paloalto_1.htm |deadurl= yes |archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20010924082423/http://www.paix.net/paloalto_1.htm |archivedate= September 24, 2001 |accessdate= August 4, 2011 }} 4. ^{{cite news |title= New ISP Group: Beware of Cable |work= Wired |date= October 27, 1999 |author= Chris Oakes |url= https://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/1999/10/32125 |accessdate= August 16, 2011 }} 5. ^{{cite web |title= Competition in Fiber to the Home: A Technology and Policy Assessment |author= Emy Tseng |publisher= MIT |work= Master of Science in Technology and Policy thesis |date= September 2001 |citeseerx = 10.1.1.68.4165 }} 6. ^{{cite web |title= Ethernet in the first mile |date= March 3, 2001 |author= Michael Silverton |url= http://www.ieee802.org/3/efm/public/mar01/silverton_1_0301.pdf |accessdate= August 4, 2011 }} 7. ^{{cite web |title= IEEE P802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile Task Force |work= official web site |publisher= IEEE 802 LAN/MAN standards committee |url= http://www.ieee802.org/3/efm |accessdate= August 4, 2011 }} 8. ^{{cite news |title= Internet phone service blossoms: But it still may not be ready for the masses |work= San Francisco Chronicle |date= February 9, 2004 |author= Todd Wallack |url= http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2004/02/09/BUGMD4R8I81.DTL |accessdate= August 16, 2011 }} External links
