HTTP and HTML and the Web itself enter their third decade of existence. Still, the Web continues to transform human communication, information sharing, commerce, education, and entertainment. Social networking, cloud computing, and the convergence of Web, television, video and online gaming are among the phenomena stretching the Web in exciting new directions. In this talk, Armin will present what the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), overlooking and steering the development of new Web standards is up to for the third decade of the Web. The W3C community is building an Open Web Platform that will enable the Web to grow and foster future innovation. This presentation present technology highlights of 2011 for advancing the Web platform. Focus topics of this talk will be the new HTML5 standard, the Data for Web Applications initiative which includes the next generation of RDF, and standards that allow people to create Semantic Web enabled Web Apps that have access to data from a variety of sources, including data-in-documents (RDFa) and data-from-databases (W3C's RDB2RDF).

Main Message: : A little bit about W3C and its lens on the future Talking Points: Don't claim to predict the future Members of W3C have a unique lens on how technology will drive change in the world Community of Technology and Industry Experts Process: Transparency, Fairness, architecture The web has been, and continues to be a platform for innovation
Talking Points Introducing the Open Web Platform Web Pages become more beautiful and interactive, more intelligent Modern browsers will display the same way, which makes web development easier. HTML5 is backed by pretty much all the major companies like Google, Apple and Microsoft. Video is now a first class citizen Data Integration simplified 2) Standards provide a platform for innovation, consolidation, cost efficiencies...etc. 3) The W3C Open Web Platform will likely shape the future of global business
Talking Points: Technology convergence of increasing power of mobile devices, pervasiveness of broadband connectivity and cloud computing make the time right for the emergence of the "App" paradigm Gartner forecasts $ 15.1 Billion for 2011 History shows the walled garden approach will not stand in the face of these sorts of market pressures, etc. Open Web Platform includes a Universal "App" development platform Rapid rise of mobile gaming also applying pressure These emerging business categories are rapidly adopting and building upon the Open Web Platform Trends Apps are not new: The moment of the App a result of the increased computational power of mobile devices offsetting the downsides of sketchy connectivity Apps give way to widgets The future therefore seems to be one where apps will give way to widgets, even on phones. Widgets are also soon likely to appear on your TV screen – if you have a set top box that connects to the Internet. These widgets will pull information from web applications based on metadata that they receive from the program or from the platform. For example while watching Avatar, you might want to check the list of James Cameron ’ s previous films. An IMDB widget would allow you to do just this. NDS were among those who demonstrated this at IBC 2009. For a real flavour of what widgets can do, you can check out Netvibes, Pageflakes and iGoogle. Vision Ubiquitous and pervasive web applications platform to allow for interoperability and privacy management. Future challenges will include managing application farms, synchronizing apps (data and app versions) across multiple platforms, and privacy issues around data. For consumers, managing our lives across a gazillion applications will bring its own challenges. It ’ s still better than wandering around with 45 plastic cards bulging your wallet like a turtle. But it won ’ t be easy. Example: iTunes is an HTML5 app Relevant W3C Work HTML5 Web Apps Widgets
Social Games. Social Networks combine with strong mobile platforms. These games are strong because of the communities that power them, not the gameplay or technology specifically. Examples: Zynga, Playfish, etc. Mobile Games. Across smart phones and mobile phones, also including mobile game consoles (DS, DSi, PSP, etc) One out of five mobile apps is a game @@source of that?@@ (social, video, massively multi-player) . Business Need Game developers looking beyond traditional development tools. Need for2D and 3D engines. Required e-commerce and m-commerce APIs to monetize. Vision Open and interoperable gaming development platform for the Web Relevant W3C Work HTML5 Canvas CSS 2D and 3D. (See also: WebGL (Khronos))
Talking Points: Trends: The death of print The birth of eBooks Authoring multimedia for multi-platform distribution IP Protection/DRM Vision A web based publishing platform. Data-rich publications, leveraging internal and linked open data A pervasive, device independent imaging model Support for all media types (video a first class citizen) Relevant W3C Work HTML5 SVG WOFF CSS3 Semantic Web and in particular SKOS, OWL, Provenance
