The Web invention
13
I. Personal story– CERN, Dertouzos, Metakides
II. Global environment– Gore, Delors
III. Historical moment– Knowledge overload
![Page 14: The Web from Gore to Obama: science and fiction Michalis Vafopoulos 04/04/2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551b77bd550346167e8b4590/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

• Internet ≠ Web• Internet = infrastructure• Web
–HTML–HTTP–URI
The technology
![Page 15: The Web from Gore to Obama: science and fiction Michalis Vafopoulos 04/04/2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551b77bd550346167e8b4590/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Why is so successful?
Is based on architecture (HTTP, URI, HTML) which is:
• simple • networked • based on open standards • extensible • tolerant
15
![Page 16: The Web from Gore to Obama: science and fiction Michalis Vafopoulos 04/04/2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551b77bd550346167e8b4590/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Why is so successful?
• universal (regardless hardware platform (iphone applications??), software platform, application software, network access, public, group, or personal scope, language and culture operating system and ability)
• free or cheap • fun • powerful
16
![Page 17: The Web from Gore to Obama: science and fiction Michalis Vafopoulos 04/04/2013](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551b77bd550346167e8b4590/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Underlying ideas
• Overcome deterministic software connections (“waterfall” model)
• Mimics the brain with “random” connections
• From ASCII to hypertext• Resolve (some) natural language
ambiguities (i.e. URI)• The biggest human system with no
central authority and control17

The Web is…
Unique opportunity to create collaboratively (not only experts) and
If we do not take it now, may not be there for a long time

The new utopia…
It is not just information that must be free, but the knowledge of how to use it.
