Abstract :
Internet browsers, technologies, languages and applications have evolved dramatically over the last two decades. Markup languages like DHTML/XML, scripting languages like Javascript/VBScript, vector languages like VML/SVG, embedded logic with Java/Flash and server-side dynamism with Ruby/Java/C#/C++ have expanded the functionality of Internet Browsers beyond just presentation and into a data-driven medium. With the extensive capabilities of the browser, it has become possible for platforms of infinite extensibility and omni-functional power to be made and operated over the internet platform. This paper considers the weaknesses of conventional software architectures with respect to document structure and power, and expands on the possibilities of converting the browser into an intelligent immersive platform. By being compatible with standards, such omni-functionalities can be intermingled with semantic web structures to create powerful models for the next generation of the Internet. The paper builds on the powerful features and potential solutions that are extended by such combinations.
