Until the 1990s the Internet was used primarily by researchers, academics, and university students to log-in to remote hosts ,to transfer files form local hosts to remote hosts and vice versa ,to receive and send news , to receive and send electronicmail. Although these applications were(and continue to be)extremely useful,the internet was essentially unknown outside the academic and research communities. then, in the early 1990s,the internet’s killer application arrived on the scene-The World Wide Web[Berners-Lee 1994].the web is the Internet application that caught the general public’s eye .it is dramatically shanging how people interact inside and outside their work environments. It has spawned thousands of start up companies. it has elevated the internet form just one of many data networks(including online networks such as Prodigy,America OnLine, and Compuserve, national data networks such as Minitel/transpac in France ,private X.25,and frame relay networks) to essentially the one and only data network.
