unreferenced date January 2008 Caret notation is a notation for unprintable control character s in ASCII ASCII encoding . The notation consists of a caret followed by a capital letter this digraph stands for the ASCII code that has the numerical value equivalent to the letter s numerical value. For example the end of transmission character EOT character with a value of 4 is represented as tt D tt because D is the 4th letter in the alphabet. The null character NUL character with a value of 0 is represented as tt tt At sign is the ASCII character before A . The Delete character DEL character with the value 127 is usually represented as tt ? tt , because the ASCII ? is before and 1 is the same as 127 if masked to 7 bits. For a complete list of caret notation, see C0 and C1 control codes . Many computer systems allow you to enter a control character by holding down Ctrl and pressing the letter used in the caret notation. This is practical, because many control characters e.g. EOT cannot be entered directly from a keyboard. Although there are many ways to represent control characters, this correspondence between notation and typing makes the caret notation suitable for many applications. Caret notation is used in many programs, particularly Unix terminal drivers and text file viewers such as more command more and Less Unix less . Alternate notations Acorn Computers Acorn operating systems for the Acorn Atom Atom , BBC Micro , Acorn Archimedes Archimedes and later RISC OS machines use the vertical bar character tt tt in place of the caret. e.g. tt M tt pronounced control M is the carriage return character, ASCII 13. tt tt is the vertical bar character code 124, tt ? tt is character 127 as above and tt tt adds 128 to the code of the following character, so tt ? tt is character code 128 127 255.

This method is widely used in application software like computer game s. In the past Web browsers have used tabbing navigation to change the focus within an interface, by pressing the tab key of a computer keyboard to focus on the next element or tt Shift tt tt Tab tt to focus on the previous one . The order is based on that in the source document. For HTML without any style, this method usually works as the spatial location of the element is in the same order of the source document. However, with the introduction of style via presentational attributes or stylesheet language stylesheet s such as Cascading Style Sheets CSS , this type of navigation is being used less often. Spatial navigation uses the arrow keys with one or more modifier key held to navigate on the 2D plane of the interface. For example, pressing the up arrow key will focus on the closest focusable element on the top relative to the current element . In many cases, this could save a lots of key presses. This accessibility feature is available in a number of applications, e.g. Opera web browser Opera s web browser .

Direct navigation describes the method individuals use to navigate the World Wide Web in order to arrive at specific website s. Direct navigation is a 10 year old term which is generally understood to include type in traffic . Direct navigation traffic was first discovered circa 1996. The few lucky domainer s who had premium names and analyzed their traffic found people were typing in their domain names and bypassing search engines . Many of them immediately realized the potential of these domain names. At that time the direct navigation segment of the World Wide Web was born. Domainers describe direct navigation as an Internet user navigating to a website directly through the browser address bar . They bypass online search engines by typing a name like hotels and adding .com . For that reason direct navigation traffic is more valuable than search engine traffic since it is better targeted. Short words that describe large segments of a market are the most valuable direct navigation names. Domainers call these names premium names and they have sold in the millions of dollars year after year since 1997. Marketers also include bookmarked traffic in the direct navigation group. Domainers do not consider bookmarked traffic as direct navigation since in most cases they do not involve a direct navigation premium domain name. A Bookmark web bookmark is made when an internet user actively adds a URL to their list of bookmarked pages. This is much different than using the browser address line to navigate to a premium domain name like hotels.com. Hence the inclusion of bookmarked traffic is not included in the domainer s version of the direct navigation market. A 2005 study of Internet traffic by WebSideStory s StatMarket division revealed that direct navigation traffic such as browser type in traffic , bookmarks of existing sites, and visits to existing, known website domain names ..., 2008, the first direct navigation search engine, ubexact.com was released.

The Bureau of Navigation also investigated marine accidents and casualties collected tonnage taxes and other navigation fees and examined, certified and licensed merchant vessel sailors. When established, the bureau was a part of the United States Department of the Treasury Department of the Treasury . In 1903, the organization was transferred to the newly formed Department of Commerce and Labor . In 1913 that department was split in two and the bureau was assigned to the Department of Commerce . In 1932 it was combined with the Steamboat Inspection Service as the Bureau of Navigation and Steamboat Inspection . In 1942, Executive order United States Executive Order 9083 transferred many functions to two other agencies. Merchant vessel documentation was transferred to the Bureau of Customs.

nn date May 2011 Rhizome Navigation is a method of dynamically creating a navigation interface for data systems, such as websites and databases. The navigation links presented to the user are not predefined, they are generated in response to user behavior, and analysis of other data. The word rhizome is used as a metaphor, to compare the growth and structure of rhizome navigation interfaces with the complex organic growth and structure of rhizome s, underground Plant stem plant stems that send out root s and shoots from their nodes. Examples of use A good example of rhizome navigation in use can be found in the program Enronic. In their investigation into the Enron scandal , the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission made a large portion of Enron s email database available to the public. Enronic analyzes these email messages to display the relationships between Enron employees, based on who emailed whom and how often. The program uses Prefuse , an open source Java programming language Java library for creating visual representations of data. Rhizome Navigation is an open source project which aims to provide useful text and graphical navigation aids to users of websites and databases, by analysing the navigation selections of previous users.
