slide: Internet -- World Wide Web

The World Wide Web is an initiative from CERN (the European Library for Particle Physics, Switzerland), intended to make a variety of material available in a common hypermedia format (HTML, see section hypermedia-model). The Mosaic browser provides a graphical interface to the World Wide Web. It is available for X-windows, MS-windows and the Macintosh by anonymous ftp from {\tt ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu:/Mosaic}, where you can also find documentation. More information concerning the World Wide Web initiative may be obtained from {\tt info.cern.ch:/pub/www/doc}. The addresses listed in slide in-web are HTML information resource identifiers, which provide you with a starting point for a journey in cyberspace documents on OOP.
