Established in 1954, the organization is based in a northwest suburb of Geneva on the Franco–Swiss border and has 23 member states. Israel is the only non-European country granted full membership. CERN is an official United Nations Observer. +> +> The acronym CERN is also used to refer to the laboratory, which in 2019 had 2,660 scientific, technical, and administrative staff members, and hosted about 12,400 users from institutions in more than 70 countries. In 2016 CERN generated 49 petabytes of data. +> +> CERN's main function is to provide the particle accelerators and other infrastructure needed for high-energy physics research – as a result, numerous experiments have been constructed at CERN through international collaborations. The main site at Meyrin hosts a large computing facility, which is primarily used to store and analyse data from experiments, as well as simulate events. Researchers need remote access to these facilities, so the lab has historically been a major wide area network hub. CERN is also the birthplace of the [[World Wide Web]]. + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/_notes/world-wide-web.md b/_notes/world-wide-web.md index 0edf3c6..541ad69 100644 --- a/_notes/world-wide-web.md +++ b/_notes/world-wide-web.md @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ Date: ![Screen Shot 2021-04-11 at 10 25 41 AM](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/227587/114308013-52435c80-9ab0-11eb-9a1d-fa4814a542a9.png) ## Abstract -HyperText is a way to link and access information of various kinds as a web of nodes in which the user can browse at will. Potentially, HyperText provides a single user-interface to many large classes of stored information such as reports, notes, data-bases, computer documentation and on-line systems help. We propose the implementation of a simple scheme to incorporate several different servers of machine-stored information already available at CERN, including an analysis of the requirements for information access needs by experiments. +HyperText is a way to link and access information of various kinds as a web of nodes in which the user can browse at will.

We propose the implementation of a simple scheme to incorporate several different servers of machine-stored information already available at [[CERN]], including an analysis of the requirements for information access needs by experiments. ## Hypertext concepts The principles of hypertext, and their applicability to the CERN environment, are discussed more fully in, a glossary of technical terms is given in. Here we give a short presentation of hypertext. diff --git a/assets/images/CERN_logo.svg b/assets/images/CERN_logo.svg new file mode 100644 index 0000000..a6f095e --- /dev/null +++ b/assets/images/CERN_logo.svg @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + image/svg+xml + + + + + + + + +
