    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.
