After internal and external reviews by many people, my latest paper is
now available. Here's the abstract:
 
 
 
              Client/Server, the Internet, and WWW
 
 
                        By David J. Greer
 
 
 
                            Abstract
 
Much of the Internet was made possible by client/server computing.
The World Wide Web (WWW) is a means of providing hypertext access to
the Internet using client/server protocols.  The WWW allows you to
point at links to text, pictures, music, or video located on servers
anywhere in the world and then play the files on your local client PC,
workstation or terminal (along with more links to related
information).  You never need to know where the information is located
or learn any obscure commands to access it.
 
This presentation will teach you how the WWW client/server
architecture works, how to set up your own WWW server for MPE or
HP-UX, and what the differences are among various WWW clients.  You
will also receive useful tips about how to find information on the
Web.  David Greer set up Robelle's WWW service and he participates in
the development of Lynx, the character-mode WWW client.  David is the
President of Robelle Consulting Ltd. and the person in charge of
Research and Development for its Qedit and Suprtool products.
