Download or read book DeckScape written by Marc H. Brown and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "This report describes DeckScape, an experimental World-Wide Web browser based on a deck metaphor. A deck consists of a collection of Web pages, and multiple decks can exist on the screen at once. As the user traverses links, new pages appear on top of the current deck. Retrievals are done using a background thread, so all visible pages in any deck are active at all times. Users can move and copy pages between decks, and decks can be used as a general-purpose way to organize material, such as hotlists, query results, and breadth-first expansions."
