- 100
Jahre Röntgen: Eine Ausstellung an der Uni Würzburg.
- Kid's Web:
A World Wide Web digital library for schoolchildren. One of the
problems with using the Web is that downloading information can be
very slow, since currently the Information Superhighway more closely
resembles a dirt road. One of our goals is to use Web caching
technology to store the documents on Kid's Web on a centralized
server at NPAC. This will allow the information on Kid's Web to
be accessed much more rapidly by students in these schools.
