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."

Cognitively Informed Intelligent Interfaces: Systems Design and Development analyzes well-grounded findings and recent insights on human perception and cognitive abilities and how these findings can and should impact the development and design of applications through the use of intelligent interfaces. Many software and systems developers currently address these cognitive issues haphazardly, and this reference will bring together clear and concise information to inform and assist all professionals interested in intelligent interfaces from designers to end users.
