摘要: Abstract This paper examines the usability of hypertext navigation facilities provided by World Wide Web client applications. A notation is defined to represent user's navigational acts and resultant system states. The used report potential, or “theoretical” problems in models supported three web study confirms that these emerge actual use, demonstrates incorrect user clients' are common. analysis identifies inadequacies interfaces. Motivated problems, we propose extensions design WWW These proposals demonstrated our WEBNET which uses dynamic graphical overview diagrams extend conventional applicaions.
