human body works, it may be helpful to use the better-known Internet as

a metaphor for the less-known human body as suggested in Table 3.12.

The construction of this table is in part based on the difference between

the Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) as described below [502]:

... Webbed systems that connect documents in nonlinear ways already

existed (in 1989; my addition). They were called hypertext. But Tim

Berners-Lee officiated the marriage of hypertext webs and the Internet

to produce a web that was worldwide. It was the vast connected logical

and useful partnership needed to make the Internet the most quickly

adopted form of communication in our species’ history....

In [494], it is suggested that

Water is to cell language what air is to human language. (3.27)

6. Philosophical principle Information–energy complementarity [25, pp. 27–40]
   The Internet and the human body share many common physical, logical, and philosophical principles,
   some of which are listed above in a self-explanatory manner.
   *A new term coined to refer to the Self-Organizing System of Computers constituting the Internet, for
   the development of which Silicon Valley in California has made a major contribution.
