Father of World Wide Web萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)之父

Tim Berners Lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the World Wide Web.

Britain played an important part in developing the first generation of computers. The parents of Tim Berners Lee both worked on one of the earliest commercial computers and talked about their work at home. As a child he would build models of computers from packaging material. After graduating from Oxford University he went on to the real thing. In the 1980s， scientists were already using a primitive version of E-mail. While working at a laboratory in Switzerland Tim Berners Lee wrote a programme which let him store these messages. In 1990 he wrote the HTTP and HTML programmes which form the basis of the World Wide Web.

The next year his programmes were placed on to the Internet. Everyone was welcome to use them and improve them if they could. Programmers used his codes to work with different operating systems. New things like web browsers and search engines were developed. Between 1991 and 1994 the number of web pages rose from 10 to 100，000.

In 1994 Tim Berners Lee formed the newly formed World Wide Web Consortium or W3C. More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone can participate equally on the Web.

蒂姆·伯納斯·李寫的軟件程序奠定了萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)的基礎(chǔ)。

在發(fā)展第一代電腦中，英國(guó)發(fā)揮了重要作用。蒂姆·伯納斯·李的父母都為最早的商業(yè)電腦公司工作，他們常在家里談?wù)摴ぷ?。還是孩子的時(shí)候，他就會(huì)用材料建立計(jì)算機(jī)模型。從牛津大學(xué)畢業(yè)后，他就開(kāi)始真正著手關(guān)于電腦方面的東西。在20世紀(jì)80年代，科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)使用了原始版本的電子郵件。當(dāng)在瑞士一個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)室工作時(shí)，蒂姆·伯納斯·李寫了一個(gè)程序，有了這個(gè)程序他就能保存這些消息。1990年他寫的超文本傳送協(xié)議和超文本標(biāo)記語(yǔ)言的程序構(gòu)成了萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)的基礎(chǔ)。

第二年，他的程序被放置到互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上，每個(gè)人都可以使用并能夠改善這些程序。程序員使用他的編碼與不同的操作系統(tǒng)工作。網(wǎng)頁(yè)瀏覽器和搜索引擎被開(kāi)發(fā)出來(lái)。在1991年到1994年，網(wǎng)頁(yè)數(shù)量從10個(gè)上升到10萬(wàn)個(gè)。

1994年，蒂姆·伯納斯·李成立了新的世界萬(wàn)維網(wǎng)聯(lián)盟協(xié)會(huì)或稱W3C。W3C代表200多家領(lǐng)先公司和實(shí)驗(yàn)室。他們共同確保每個(gè)人都能平等地參與網(wǎng)絡(luò)。
