`ABSTRACT
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Systems and methods for navigating hypermedia using mul-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`tiple coordinated input/output device sets. Disclosed systems
`and methods allow a user and/or an author to control what
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`resources are presented on which device sets (whether they
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`are integrated or not), and provide for coordinating browsing
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`activities to enable such a user interface to be employed
`
`
`
`
`
`
`across multiple independent systems. Disclosed systems and
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`methods also support new and enriched aspects and applica-
`
`
`
`
`
`
`tions of hypermedia browsing and related business activities.
