ABSTRACT: Companies are increasingly turning to the World Wide Web to
spread the word on their products and services. WWW is an
Internet-borne distributed collection of documents that users
can navigate via hypertext. Companies that had been confused
about how to establish a presence on the Internet, which has
traditionally been hostile to advertising, are rushing to set
up WWW servers, which provide everything from customer
support to marketing. Businesses are also turning to secure
transaction servers to increase their sales.

ABSTRACT: The World Wide Web represents a dramatic advance on the
Internet. By its own definition, the World Wide Web is the
universe of network-accessible information, an embodiment of
human knowledge. There have been protocols for transferring
different types of information over the Internet for a long
time, but the web provides the first seamless interface to the
complete network. In other words, the user need no longer
think much about where information is held, either physically
or in terms of the syntax of domain names and addressing
conventions. In addition, the web is a hypermedia system,
which means that linked documents need not be text alone. In
fact, most web documents include such graphic elements as
photographs, drawings, diagrams, and different kinds of
ornamental flourishes. The workings of the web and some of
the scientific information available on this system are
described.

ABSTRACT: Network information systems reached the public consciousness
this year as a result of the phenomenal growth in the use of
the Internet. In particular, the software constituting NCSA
(National Center for Supercomputing Applications) Mosaic and
the World Wide Web have made global hypermedia a widespread
reality for the first time. The technology underlying this
software is described to explain the protocols behind
information spaces. These include the historical
predecessors, the current protocols with examples, future
directions for the software, and discussion of research
systems with different architectures. Reasons for its
popularity are given, with the goal of illuminating successful
services for the National Information Infrastructure.

ABSTRACT: Part of a special section on Internet technology. The World-
Wide Web (W3) was designed to be a pool of human knowledge
that would allow users in remote locations to collaborate on a
common project. When a W3 "client" program is run, it
displays an object, usually a document with text and possibly
images. Some of the phrases and images are highlighted.
Clicking the mouse on the highlighted area causes the client
program to retrieve information from some other computer, a
"server." Retrieved information may be presented in
hypertext, plain text, or multimedia format. W3 has not yet
met its design goal of being a pool of data that is as easy to
update as to read. That level of intimacy of knowledge
sharing awaits the general availability of easy-to-use
hypertext editors for most formats.

ABSTRACT: The struggle to build links between the fragmented data on the
Internet computer network is considered. Although the
Internet encompasses over 20 million computers in over 60
countries, there is still no central point for finding out
what information is held on the system. In 1989, a computer
programmer at CERN began development of a system of "server"
and "browser" computer programs to form a hypertextual system
called the Web. In this system, each of the documents that
the browser displays has links to other routes of information.
A protocol language called Hypertext Markup Language spells
out exactly how a document should be formatted in order to
work on the Web. In 1992, programmers at the National Center
for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois
in Champaign-Urbana developed NCSA Mosaic, a way of accessing
the Web using icons and a mouse. Versions of Mosaic are now
available for X-Windows, Windows, and Mac systems.
