- Abstract
- Studies the effects of typeface, point size, screnn resolution and monitor size on legibility in a task-setting similar to skimming headlines in an electronic newspaper. Studies Times New Roman, Book Antiqua, Century Gothic, and Arial typefaces. The headlines were shown to 28 subjects using a brief-exposure method. The results indicate the existence of interactions between all factors considered in this study. The best overall legibility was achieved by the Times New Roman and Arial typefaces. These 2 typefaces represent a serif and sans-serif typeface tuned specifically for the display of text on a computer screen

- Abstract
- Describes an SGL relational database schema for representing the objects in HyperCard, along with a technique for automatically populating this schema from a HyperCard stack using the facilities in HyperTalk with calls to the database manager. The stabndard relational database query language SQL can then be used to perform more general hypertext searches than are possible with the string search feature found in most hypertext browsing environments. These techniques, although demonstrated specially usinf HyperCard and Oracle for Macintosh, are generally applicable to a wide range of hypertext systems and relational databases

- Abstract
- Speculates on the future of hypertext focusing on 2 distinct types of application resulting from current investigations. The first approach presents hypertext as primarily a browsable database or hyperbase. The second approach, hyperdocument, draws its intellectual support from structured document research

- Abstract
- Digital libraries need to facilitate the use of digital information in a variety of settings. One approach to making information useful is to enable its application to situations unanticipated by the original author. Walden's Path is designed to enable authors to collect, organize, and annotate information from on-line collections for presentaion to their readers. Experiences with the use of Walden's Paths in high-school classrooms have identified 4 needs/issues: (1) better support for the gradual authoring of paths by teachers, (2) support for student authoring of paths including the ability for students to collaborate on paths, (3) more obvious distinction between content of the original source materials and that added by the path author, and (4) support for maintaining paths over an evolving set of source documents. These observed needs have driven the development of new versions of Walden's Paths. Additionally, the experiences with path authoring have led to a conceptualization of metadocuments, documents whose components include complete documents, as a general domain where issues of collaboration, intellectual property, and maintenance are decidedly different form traditional document publication

- Abstract
- Explores the use of interactive documents as interfaces to historical data starting with the basis of the well known representation of a timeline. When incorporated into the context of electronic documents, the timeline provides the basis for implementing an interface into an event space, relying particularly on hypertextual-style links. Generalizing timelines also permits the flexible representation of many different kinds of relationships beyond the temporal. Describes examples of such representations taken from prototype implementations
