The difference between the Internet and the World Wide Web 1, the Internet, also known as the Internet, is the most influential international computer network in the world. Its accurate description is that the Internet is a network of networks. It uses TCP/IP network protocol to connect various physical networks of different types, scales and geographical locations into a whole. It is also an international communication network collection, which integrates modern communication technology and modern computer technology, and integrates various information resources in various departments and fields, thus forming an information resource network shared by online users. Its appearance is the inevitable and symbol of the world from industrialization to informationization. Internet originated from ARPAnet established by ARPA, the predecessor of DARPA, in 1969. The original ARPANET was mainly used for military research purposes. 1972, ARPANET first met the public and became the symbol of the birth of modern computer network. Another important contribution of ARPAnet in technology is the development and use of TCP/IP protocol family. ARPAnet has laid a foundation for the existence and development of Internet, and solved a series of theoretical and technical problems of interconnection between heterogeneous computer networks. At the same time, the emergence and development of local area network and other wide area networks have played an important role in the further development of the Internet. Among them, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has the greatest influence, which established the National Science Foundation Network (NSFnet). It completely replaced ARPAnet as the backbone of the Internet in June 1990, but NSFnet's greatest contribution to the Internet is to open the Internet to the whole society. With the rapid growth of online traffic, in September, 1990, an advanced network and science company, ANS (Advanced Network &; Science Company). Its purpose is to build a T3 backbone network nationwide, which can transmit data at a rate of 45Mb/s, equivalent to transmitting 14 00 pages of text information per second. As of 199 1, all backbone networks of NSFnet have been connected with T3 backbone networks provided by ANS. In recent ten years, with the development of society, science and technology, culture and economy, especially the development of computer network technology and communication technology, people pay more and more attention to the development and utilization of information resources, which effectively stimulates the development of the Internet. On the Internet, there are more than 65,438+000 businesses classified according to demand, including advertising companies, airlines, agricultural production companies, arts, navigation equipment, bookstores, chemical industry, communications, computers, consulting, entertainment, finance and trade, various shops and hotels, etc. It covers all aspects of social life and is the epitome of the information society. 2. What is the World Wide Web? World Wide Web: www): Also known as World Wide Web. The history of the World Wide Web is very short. 1989, researchers of CERN (European Particle Physics Laboratory) hope to develop a remote access system with shared resources, which can provide a unified interface to access various types of information, including text, images, audio and video information. 1990, all kinds of people completed the earliest browser products, 199 1 year, and published WWW internally, which was the beginning of the World Wide Web. At present, most well-known companies have established their own World Wide Web sites on the Internet. 3. Difference: The Internet was born in the United States in 1969. Originally called "ARPANET", it was a military research system, and later became an academic system connecting computers of universities and institutions of higher learning. Now it has developed into an open global computer network system covering five continents 150 countries, with many service providers. Ordinary computer users only need a personal computer to connect with an Internet service provider through a telephone line to access the Internet. But the Internet is not the only one in the world. For example, in Europe, transnational Internet networks include Euronet, EARN, EIN, BITNET in the United States, and FedEx networks (global BBS system) all over the world. Knowing the above situation, we can know that capitalized "internet" ("interreto" in Esperanto) and lowercase "Internet" ("Interreto" in Esperanto) refer to different objects. When we talk about the world's largest Internet mentioned above, that is, the Internet we usually use, we call it "Internet" or "Internet", although the name of the latter is not standardized. Here, "Internet" appears as a proper noun, so the first letter must be capitalized. However, as a common noun, that is, "Internet" starting with lowercase letters generally refers to a large network formed by the interconnection of multiple computer networks. According to the approval of the National Science and Technology Examination and Approval Committee, such a network system can be called "Internet". That is to say, the Internet and other similar large-scale network systems connected by computers can all be regarded as the "Internet", and the Internet is only the largest one in the Internet. In the 2002 supplement of Modern Chinese Dictionary, the definitions of Internet and Internet are "a network formed by the interconnection of several computer networks" and "the largest computer Internet in the world at present, which evolved from ARPA network in the United States". For reference. Finally, as a proper noun, besides the first letter, the Internet usually adds the article la Interreto, which can also be abbreviated as "la Reto". WWW, World Wide Web, TTT-Almost Perfect Translation Anyone who accesses the Internet does not know the important role of WWW? To enter the web address, you must type these three letters first. These three letters are abbreviations of the English initials "World Wide Web". WWW has been translated into World Wide Web, World Wide Web, Hypermedia World Wide Web and so on. In China, it was finally translated into the World Wide Web by the National Science and Technology Terminology Examination Committee. In the article GZ18 "Wonderful Translation of WWW", Mr. Zhu Guo praised his Chinese translation of the word "Wang Wanwei", which was not excessive. The nearly perfect translation beauty of the word "World Wide Web" lies in its meaning, form and vividness. What a miraculous translation! Coincidentally, the translated word "TTT" of "WWW" is also composed of three identical letters, and the translation is also amazing. "TTT" is "Tut-Tera Teksa" in esperanto? O "abbreviation. According to the information in Komputada leksikono (a computer professional vocabulary) written by Russian Esperanto Sergio Pokrovskij, the original translation form of "WWW" was "Tutmonda Tekso". On the day when this translation name appeared, that is,1August 5, 994, someone immediately suggested changing it to "Tut-Tera Tekso" on the Internet. Eight days later, August 13 was translated into "Tut-Tera Teksa" by another person at the suggestion of an anonymous person. O "(literally" World Wide Web "). The abbreviation TTT of this translated name is neat in form and completely consistent in semantics, which is easy to read, remember and write. This is the creation of collective wisdom. It also eloquently proves that Esperanto is powerful, flexible and adaptable, which is not inferior to Chinese and English at all (please compare the French translation word "Forum elektronique mondial" and the Spanish translation word "Telarana Mundial" in WWW, whose abbreviations are "FEM" and "TM" respectively). Writing here, I can't help but think of a famous saying by Mr. Yan Fu, a modern translation master in China: "A famous person stands, and the moon is long." A good translation can only be produced after a long period of searching and thinking by translators and sometimes even several translators. The World Wide Web is a collection of countless websites and web pages, which together constitute the most important part of the Internet (the Internet also includes e-mail, newsgroups and newsgroups). It is actually a collection of multimedia, connected by hyperlinks. What we usually watch online through a web browser is the content of the World Wide Web. I will introduce some Esperanto terms about the World Wide Web and browsing the World Wide Web in future posts. Internet is a network that connects computer networks with different structures distributed all over the world with various transmission media. So some people call it the network of the network, and Chinese translation is Internet, Internet, Internet and so on. The main services provided by the Internet are World Wide Web (WWW), file transfer (FTP), e-mail, remote login, etc. WWW (World Wide Web) is abbreviated as W3, sometimes called Web, and translated into Chinese as World Wide Web, World Wide Web and so on. The World Wide Web was developed by the European Centre for Nuclear Physics (ERN). Its purpose is to provide communication, information exchange and information inquiry facilities for scientists all over the world by using the Internet. The World Wide Web is based on the client/server model. WWW is based on Hypertext Markup Language (html) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (http). An information browsing system that can provide a consistent user interface for Internet services. Among them, the WWW server uses hypertext links to link information pages, which can be placed on the same host or in different geographical locations. This link is maintained by Uniform Resource Locator (URL), and the WWW client software (namely WWW browser) is responsible for displaying information and sending requests to the server. Internet uses hypertext and hypermedia to organize information and extend information links to the whole Internet. At present, users can not only access the information of the Web server, but also access the network services such as FTP and Telnet by using WWW. Therefore, it has become the most widely used and promising access tool on the Internet, and is playing an increasingly important role in business. The WWW client program is called WWW browser on the Internet, which is the software used to browse the WWW homepage on the Internet. At present, the most popular browser software mainly includes Netscape communicator and Microsoft ie browser. WWW browsing provides a user-friendly information query interface, and users only need to make a query request. As for where to query, how to query is done automatically by WWW. Therefore, WWW has brought users worldwide hypertext services. Users can transmit the required text, images, sounds and other information from anywhere in the world through the Internet by manipulating the mouse. WWW makes the very complex Internet very simple and easy to use. WWW browser not only opens up a convenient way for users to find rich and diverse homepage information resources on the Internet, but also provides powerful communication means such as Usenet newsgroup, email and FTP protocol.
