W3C Develops Interoperability Standards for the Mobile Web

Exploring the Web from a mobile device today has yet to fulfill
its promise, due to obstacles in interoperability and usability. Services provided by the Consortium include: a
repository of information about the World Wide Web for developers and
users, and various prototype and sample applications to demonstrate
use of new technology . Turing Award was named for Alan M. Turing, the British
mathematician who articulated the mathematical foundation and limits of
computing, and who was a key contributor to the Allied cryptanalysis of the
German Enigma cipher during World War II.org/awards/taward.acm.acm.
