Design Issues for the World Wide Web Architectural and philosophical points These statements of architectural principle explain the thinking behind the specifications. These are personal notes by Tim Berners-Lee: they are not endorsed by W3C. They are aimed at the technical community, to explain reasons, provide a framework to provide consistency for for future developments, and avoid repetition of discussions once resolved. Informal notes not in this series Mappings and identity in URIs and IRIs Obsolete notes Assumed syntax - a simpler RDF syntax used in the following. (1999). Original design issues These documents date from the original design of the web, dating from 1990 when the first HTML editor was available to write them. Other historical notes A pre-XML (pre W3C!)

Pastec, the open source image recognition technology for your mobile apps Facedetect: Free face detection software Marco Fioretti shows you how to download and get started with facedetect, free face detection and recognition software. Automatic, face detection and recognition software is very cool technology. However, it can also be a Big Brother-style surveillance nightmare if turned on CCTV cameras 24/7 or a recurring annoyance whenever someone on Facebook tags you in photographs you didn't even know existed. Such momentous issues are outside the scope of this column, of course. I have other reasons to talk about face detection here. Let's play with facedetect Facedetect is a small Python command line utility that uses the Open Source Computer Vision Library (OpenCV) to recognize which regions of a digital photograph correspond to human faces. To make facedetect available to all users of your Linux system, download the zip archive from its home page, unpack it, and copy the facedetect Python file into the /usr/local/bin directory. Please look closely at Figure A. Figure A Figure B Figure C

RECIT. "Personne n’a compris quoi que ce soit" : comment Tim Berners-Lee a créé le web il y a 30 ans On s’en sert pour s’informer, faire du shopping, discuter sur les réseaux sociaux… Difficile d’imaginer aujourd’hui notre quotidien sans le web. Pourtant cette innovation, qui a changé la face du monde, ne coulait pas de source. "Il m'arrivait d'avoir 50 comptes ouverts sur différents logiciels et sur différents ordinateurs pour échanger des données avec des collègues." L'ingénieur français François Flückiger, qui a fait sa carrière au Centre européen pour la recherche nucléaire (Cern), a encore des sueurs quand il se souvient des difficultés à partager des informations avant la création du web, qui fête ses 30 ans mardi 12 mars. A la fin des années 1980, il fait partie de la poignée de scientifiques à être sur internet. Pour avancer, cette communauté de chercheurs dispersée aux quatre coins de la planète a besoin de partager une immense masse de données disparates. Mais les échanges sont lents et fastidieux. C'était extrêmement complexe d'utiliser internet.
