All,
Thank David for his advise, and I think I should specify the multi-task more
clear here. Since David's email was not sent to list, I post it and my reply
here for your reference.

David,
Thank you very much for your help. But I think maybe I didn't specify my
question clearly. In fact what I am looking for is NOT literatures about how
browser can be multi-tasking, BUT literatures about how browser support
user's multi-tasking, that is, to help user maintain several different
working sessions. For example, I am replying a buddy's email about Ajax
questions and therefore opening a set of web pages for related information,
and at the same time, I am looking for recipes for my dinner from the other
set of web pages. The supporting of user's multi-tasking means that in this
situation the browser will help me to switch from one set to another set,
and to suspend/resume these working session if I want, etc. Here the
multi-tasking is different from the multi-tasking from computer's viewpoint.
It is user oriented, and the task is the task of user, not the task of
browser.

主题: RE: Literatures about supporting multitask and multisession in browser
Download and install Chrome if you haven't already, then take a look at
Google's documentation for it -- somewhere in
http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/ is a section that gives a
lightweight overview of the multi-tasking architecture of Chrome.

主题: Literatures about supporting multitask and multisession in browser
All,
I am curiously about that is there any literatures, or research projects,
etc. on supporting multitask and multisession in browser? I want to research
on this direction, but unfortunately hardly found useful information about
it. Any suggestion will be appreciated J
