ABOUT THIS GUIDE:  Take the time to read this, it will improve your understanding.
 
    This guide displays some of the many solutions available today for integrating Macintosh computers into multi-vendor computer environments.  This is a sampler of just some of the many alternatives and is not intended to show all of the solutions available or all of the environments where the Macintosh computer can be integrated.
 
    Collapsing the seven layer OSI communications model to three layers, the stack displays various levels of information about the components needed to integrate a Macintosh computer into several computing environments.  The top floor of the building contains the rooms where applications can be seen, the rooms showing networking services are on the second floor, and hardware solutions can be found in the rooms on the first floor. 
 
    The focal point of the stack is the connectivity rooms where you can scan through and select products for both the Macintosh and host computers.  You can quickly see the level of integration and highlights for each product and then either move to a deeper level of information or on to another combination of products.

CONTROL PANEL NAVIGATION:
     At the bottom of the screen is a series of nine buttons that aid in navigating through the stack.  From left to right they function as follows:

     1. Stop - Selecting the “Stop” sign lets you exit the stack (go home) or quit HyperCard entirely.
     2. Executive Briefing Center - The compass rose can be clicked to move immediatly to the executive briefing center where this guide and the navigation tools are described in more detail.
     3. Glossary - The dictionary can be clicked to look up the definition of a term used in the stack that you do not fully understand.
     4. Printer - The printer can be clicked to print a copy of the HyperCard window as it appears at the time you click.
      5. Help Description - This is where the short help information appears when you move the cursor over a selectable area.  It is not a selectable button.
     6. Product Outline Finder - Clicking this button takes you to the heiarchical product locator where you can view products by host environment and solution area.
     7. Lobby - The lobby button will take you to the lobby of the building metphore.
     8. Interoperability Matrix - Selecting this button takes you directly to the Interoperability Matrix allowing you to select a new environment/solution combination to investigate.
     9. Return - The return button takes you back to the point you just came from.

     There are three ways to navigate through the information in this stack:

                                A. Using the building metaphore.
                                B. Using the Interoperability Matrix.
                                C. . Using the Information Outliner.

A. Using the building metaphore:

     You can leave the lobby of the connected company in two ways; clicking on the left doorway will take you to the Executive Briefing Center where you can explore general information about this guide and related information; to the right, clicking on the computing environment you want to integrate your Macintosh computer into takes you into the Connectivitiy Elevator for that environment.  

     Inside the elevator you can select one of the three connectivity levels.  The top level (floor) contains software applications, the middle level contains network services products that permit the actual transfer of data and files between the Macintosh environment and the selected integration environment, and the bottom level contains hardware solutions that physically connect the Macintosh computer to the chosen environment.

     By clicking on the level you want to explore you are taken to that floor and moved into an L-shaped hallway displaying the solution areas currently included in the stack.  If there are more than four solution areas available, you can move around the corner by clicking on the ‘more’ sign at the end of the hall and return by clicking on the ‘exit’ sign.

     To select a solution area you just click on the appropriate door and you are taken into that connectivity room.  Once in the room you can click on either the Macintosh or the host computer to select from the solutions included in the stack.

     At this point you can change your selected solution(s) or call up a more detailed description of the solution(s) by clicking on the product name on the drawer below each computer thereby going to the product card.


B. Using the Interoperability Matrix:

     By selecting the Interoperability Matrix button (second from right at bottom of screen) you will go to the Interoperability Matrix.  The three buttons at the left let you choose an Environment and a Solution from a selection of several computer types and  solution areas.  After selecting an environment and/or solution, clicking the action button above the ‘Stop’ button takes the you to the chosen environment and solution room, or the chosen environment hall if only the environment was selected.  The Matrix moves you to the appropriate room on the appropriate level of the building.

     In the lower left section of the matrix is used to search through the products included in the guide.  You can scroll or do name searches to find specific products.
 

C. Using the Outliner:

     The Outliner navigation tool (the outline icon, third from right at the bottom of screen) allows scanning the products in the guide categorized by specific host, environment, and solution area.  At the top of card you first select Macintosh-based or host-based products.  Then you select the host environment you want to integrate the Macintosh computer into.  The installed solution areas will appear and by selecting a solution area all of the applications that run on the selected base that integrate to the chosen environment and satisfy the chosen solution area will appear.  Clicking on a product takes you to the expanded product description in the product database.


III. More Details About The Rooms:

      In the rooms at the Applications level, clicking on the Macintosh screen displays a list of products for the chosen solution which offer connectivity in the chosen computing environment and which run on the Macintosh.  When you select a product, the stack displays summary product information.  Clicking on the highlighted product name allows you to go to the Products stack for more detailed information.  Clicking on the other screen displays a list of products which run on the other, or host, platform and performs the same functions for host related applications.  
     Returning to the room, the selected product name(s) are displayed on the drawer of the desk under the respective computer(s).  Once products have been chosen for both the Macintosh and host sides, the stack compares their read  & write file formats and method(s) of network communication, and then displays the method of interoperability.  At this point, you can get detailed product information by clicking on a highlighted product name, reconfigure (select new products) either or both sides, or descend to the Network Services or Hardware Levels.
     Rooms at the network services level display products that can support the network method required at the application level above.  Clicking on ‘Click for Services Chooser’ lets you select the type of network service to review.  Clicking on the Macintosh or host computer screen displays a list of products providing that service on either the Macintosh or the host side.  The selected product name is displayed on the drawer of the desk under the respective computer(s).  At this point, the user can get detailed product information by clicking on the product name, or the user can descend to the Hardware Level.
     In Hardware level rooms, clicking on the equipment on either side of the room displays a list of hardware products appropriate to the chosen computer.  Selecting a product displays the product name on the drawer of the left desk and displays summary product information at the top of the bulletin board at the back of the room.  Clicking on the product name allows the user to go to the products database for more detailed information.
