Abstract: Aspects of the present invention provide systems and methods for deferred resolution of hypertext links. A web page or other network page may contain tags used to select links to other pages. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a network server evaluates tags selected by a user and may selectively defer following selected links. The deferred links may then be displayed and selectively followed by the user.Additional aspects of the present invention provide systems and methods for using cell based computational units to evaluate tags selected by a user and selectively defer the requested actions. In an exemplary embodiment, a thread of execution may be initiated on a server for each deferred action and then be suspended using multi-processing techniques. The threads may then be selectively reactivated to initiate the deferred actions.
