- Abstract
- The multimedia CD-ROM database, Compton's interactive encyclopedia, by Compton's NewMedia, incorporates virtual workspace: a new user interface that is based on Windows and enables searchers to research large amounts of data ba acting as a Windows shell to turn the boundaries of a computer screen into a nearly infinite working display. Users can extract information from a database and place it in a window on the computer screen's 'desktop' and the desktop can be scanned with a mouse, like a magnifying glass, moving from window to window. Notes other features of the database including: the SmarTrieve retrieval engine and the AudioVisual Interleave enhanced sound and animation capability
