A Potted View of the Web Who, where, when, why. Approximately. Lee Gillam Department of Computing

ARPANET: c1967, decentralized computer network (US DoD) => INTERNET: c1983, relying on TCP/IP as a means to split data into packets and route them to computers c1972, software for ARPANET Personal Computer (affordable?): c1980, Apple Lisa/Mac and IBM PC SGML: c1970; Hypertext: c1987, Apple’s Hypercard Web Browser: c1990, Tim Berners-Lee then at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research – Hypertext + Internet + PC to produce an information network enabling physicists are CERN to share experimental results – First webpage: Key Milestones - some developments

Browsers - TBL Browser called “WorldWideWeb”; Mosaic: 1993; Opera: 1994; Mozilla (Netscape): 1994; Internet Explorer: 1995 ….. IE, Firefox, Safari, …. Web Servers - Apache, IIS, ….. Search Engines - AltaVista, Google, MSN, ….. Estimated size of the web: 125m sites (July 2007); 88m (July 2006). Google: ~5bn pages (+/- 14bn) in English. 2001, English about 68%; 35% by What else? Video, Audio, IM, …. What next? – Semantic Web - the machine-understandable web (TBL) Key Milestones - some developments

Using the Domain Name Servers (DNS) – A distributed database that converts names to addresses. Overall management by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). US, – (= => ( – Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP): for moving information (HTML) around the web. – HTTP client establishes TCP connection to a port (usually 80) [ is port 25]; HTTP server (program) responds with messages (e.g. 404 error) and data (HTML). – Country code top level domains (ccTLD): Nominet for.uk (.gb);.tv = Tuvalu, an island in the Pacific..com,.net,.eu,.travel,.org …. (gTLD) How does it work?

Think about a distributed telephone conversation what? 26 days Full days or working days? What do we assume?

How does it work? ? ?? An unknown or unexpected error has occurred. Communication and commonality (standards) are vital (TCP/IP, HTTP, HTML….) ….. Machines are dumb ….. The Browser still has to present the (represented) information somehow.

How does it work? HTML: Elements, Attributes and Values Surrey Computing – Elements delimit: e.g., – Elements are additionally specified by attributes, e.g. href – Values fill elements or attributes, e.g. and Surrey Computing – Should have closure for elements (corresponding ) - browsers can be forgiving

How does it work? HTML: Elements, Attributes and Values – Elements and values are embedded, e.g. Visit the <a href=“ Surrey Computing Website – 1 [h1 2 [text, a 3 4 [text] 4, text] 3, text] 2 ] 1.
