In order to provide alternative way for accessing WWW, we
propose a FaxWeb system to access WWW services using a fax
machine in this paper. Based on the FaxWeb system, users, who
don't have computers or who don't have the capability of
using computers, can access WWW services using fax machines.In
this way, people can adopt not only computers but also fax
machines, whichbelong to the traditional consumer/office
electronics and are very cheap gradually, to access WWW at the
client site. The user spectrum of WWW canbe expanded to those
people who lack the capability of using computers. Tohave
convenient use, the FaxWeb system contains voice response and a
touch-tone WWW browsing facility for accessing WWW using fax
machines. The system architecture and system development of
FaxWeb are presented in the paper.
