- NGI Implementation Plan – (February 1998) – This plan incorporates the comments received from the Presidential Advisory Committee on High Performance Computing and Communications, Information Technology, and the Next Generation Internet; Members of Congress and their staff; an NGI workshop sponsored by Computer Research Association, Computer Systems Policy Project, and Cross Industry Working Team; industry; academia; and the public.
- NGI Concept Paper (July 1997) – On October 10, 1996, President Clinton and Vice President Gore announced their commitment to the Next Generation Internet (NGI) Initiative, based upon strong research and development programs across Federal agencies. The Large Scale Networking Working Group of the Computing, Information, and Communications R&D Subcommittee has drafted a paper that outlines the concepts and goals of the NGI initiative as part of the process for building the strongest possible program among academia, industry, and the Government.

- NGI Reports:
- Research Challenges for the Next Generation Internet (May 1997) – This report resulted from the Workshop on Research Directions for the Next Generation Internet, held May 12-14, 1997. The workshop was funded by NSF and supported by NSF program staff. The report does not reflect NSF policy or the views of any particular participant.
- White House on the NGIPresident Clinton advocates Congressional support for the Next Generation Internet in his 1998 State of the Union Address: “We should enable all the world’s people to explore the far reaches of cyberspace. Think of this — the first time I made a State of the Union speech to you, only a handful of physicists used the World Wide Web. Literally, just a handful of people. Now, in schools, in libraries, homes and businesses, millions and millions of Americans surf the Net every day. We must give parents the tools they need to help protect their children from inappropriate material on the Internet. But we also must make sure that we protect the exploding global commercial potential of the Internet. We can do the kinds of things that we need to do and still protect our kids. For one thing, I ask Congress to step up support for building the next generation Internet. It’s getting kind of clogged, you know. And the next generation Internet will operate at speeds up to a thousand times faster than today.”
