29、one. But if robots are to reach the next stage of laborsaving utility, they will have to be able to make at least a few decisions for themselves.Despite a spell of initial optimism in the 1960s and 1970s when it appeared that transistor circuits and microprocessors might be able to copy the action o

33、ef history of the Internet, and particularly the development of the World Wide Web, and also introduce you to finding your way around the Internet.As you may recall, in the 1960s the Department of Defense recognized the need to link together those research institutions that were working on DOD proje

34、cts. And in particular they were interested in linking those across the country so that they could share blueprints and other data on satellite, submarine, etc. The Internet continued to grow in the 1970s and was used largely by college and universities and some other research institutions. And in t

35、he 1980s, the Internet began to pick up speed as more and more universities joined the net. It continued to grow and it seemed to be growing rather rapidly, But little did we know how much faster the Internet in fact would grow. Well, beginning at the end of 1990 and 1991 and 1992, Tim Berners-Lee d

36、eveloped HTML-the hypertext markup languageand Marc Andreeson developed Mosaic, which was a graphical web browser using HTML. What was important was that by the development of HTML and the simultaneous development of a software tool that integrated HTMLone could see images real time off the Internet

37、, rather than downloading them. And so the Internet then became much more than it had been in the past, and in fact, even now we must realize the Internet is more than just the World Wide Web. Email of course is an important component of the Internet. But now the World Wide Web is increasingly the l

38、argest part of our Internet experience.Before the web, File Transfer Protocol was the mode of access and transfer of information across the World Wide Web. Suppose one would transfer an image, lets say a satellite image from a government site, say the national weather service to your home computer.

39、Using a separate piece of software on your home computer you would be able to bring up the image. That process took several minutesthats much longer than it currently does. Modems of the time were transferring data at 300 baud or 1200 baud. Now, with ISDN lines, 128,000 bit per second is not uncommo

40、n.Well, the web itself was the beginning of e-commerceelectronic commerce. The potential was envisioned once the web was developed and Internet was no longer just the purview for colleges, universities and researchers. Commercial entities understood the potential of the Internet and when they compar

41、ed the Internet to newspapers, radio and television for advertising they found the Internet was far less expensive. It provided far more detailed data collection on those who visited the siteand it allowed for built-in electronic orderingit had so many features that newspaper, radio and TV had only

42、promised. Commerce now drives the Internet and it really is the force that moves the Internet and World Wide Web forward.No one person knows what all is on the Internetit changes every hour, every minute, every second, and theres no complete index. You know years ago even in the 1980s when I was tea

43、ching classes on new technologies and we talked about the Internet, we described it as going to the Library of Congress with all of the books on the floor and no card catalog. The first attempt came with a process called gopher, which was developed by the University of Minnesota. And then there were

44、 hotlists. In fact, a couple of grad students at Stanford developed one that ended up on its own as Yahoo! Web crawlers ultimately came about, such as AltaVista, Infoseek, HotBot, and there are so many others. These web crawlers operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and they search domains constan

45、tly, they use hot-short for robot-electronic robots that search the Internet going from domain to domain and then they collect information from millions, actually tens of millions, of sites, and yet each of these only covers a fraction of the Internet.Well, as you use those web crawlers, you use com

46、monly searched terms. And the way in which you use those terms differ somewhat with each and every web crawler or search engine. Most of the search engines use double quotation marks to designate a phrase if you want those words in that specific order, and that helps you to narrow your search if you

47、 put a particular phrase in quotation marks. Generally one avoids uppercasenot always, but generally that will limit ones search.Perhaps the most exciting recent development has been the development of the recta search engines. The meta-crawlers are the crawler of crawlers. That is, its a search engine that will then search other search engines. So if you submit a search term to one site, it re subm
