What is the W3C?
The World Wide Web Consortium has been working since 1994 to develop
common protocols for the Web that promote its evolution and ensure
its interoperability. Read more at http://www.w3c.org.
The Web is an application built on top of the Internet and,
as such, has inherited its fundamental design principles.
- Interoperability: Specifications for the Web’s languages
and protocols must be compatible with one another and allow (any)
hardware and software used to access the Web to work together.
- Evolution: The Web must be able to accommodate future technologies.
Design principles such as simplicity, modularity, and extensibility
will increase the chances that the Web will work with emerging
technologies such as mobile Web devices and digital television,
as well as others to come.
- Decentralization: Decentralization is without a doubt the
newest principle and most difficult to apply. To allow the Web
to "scale" to worldwide proportions while resisting
errors and breakdowns, the architecture(like the Internet) must
limit or eliminate dependencies on central registries.
These principles guide the work carried out within W3C Activities.
