摘要
This paper describes the World-Wide Web (W3) global information system initiative, its protocols and data formats, and how it is used in practice. It discusses the plethora of different but similar information systems which exist, and how the web unifies them, creating a single information space. We describe the difficulties of information sharing between colleagues, and the basic W3 model of hypertext and searchable indexes. We list the protocols used by W3 and describe a new simple search and retrieve protocol (HTTP), and the SGML style document encoding used. We summarize the current status of the X11, NeXTStep, dumb terminal and other clients, and of the available server and gateway software.
