Group Discussion on "The Early Web

Questions to discuss:

  1. How do you think the web would have been if not like the present way?
  2. What kind of infrastructure changes would you like to make?

Group 1

Relatively satisfied with the present structure of the web some changes suggested are in the below areas:
  • Make use of the greater potential of Protocols
  • More communication and interaction capabilities.
  • Implementation changes in the present payment method systems. Example usage of "Micro-computation" - a discussion we would get back to in future classes. Also, Cryptographic currencies.
  • Augmented reality.
  • More towards individual privacy.

Group 2

A large portion of the web serves content that is overwhelmingly concerned about presentation rather than structuring content. Tim Berner-Lees himself bemoaned the death of the semantic web.

  • Information to be classified in detail
    • Organize things on web. Ex: Yahoo indexers
    • Suggestion for the need of Universal Decimal System an idea by Paul Otlet to be considered.
    • In the end it comes to semantic web
  • Information redundancy
  • Information verification

Group 3

  • What we want to keep
    • Linking mechanisms
    • Minimum permissions to publish
  • What we don't like
    • Relying on one source for document
    • Privacy links for security
  • Proposal
    • Peer-peer to distributed mechanisms for documenting
    • Reverse links with caching - distributed cache
    • More availability for user - what happens when system fails?
    • Key management to be considered - Is it good to have centralized or distributed mechanism?

Group 4

  • An idea of web searching for us
  • A suggestion of a different web if it would have been implemented by "AI" people
    • AI programs searching for data - A notion already being implemented by Google slowly.
  • Generate report forums
  • HTML equivalent is inspired by the AI communication
  • Higher semantics apart from just indexing the data
    • Problem : "How to bridge the semantic gap?"
    • Search for more data patterns
