Abstract

This book addresses some of the most perplexing issues related to the widening use of electronic media as a supplement to, or substitute for, paper-based print. These issues include access rights, preservation, standards, and copyright, among others. The book also provides a look at some proposals, prototypes, and processes in electronic publishing

Abstract

This is the book the authors wish they had when they did their first SGML implementation. The SGML implementation guide gives you the tools you need to get your implementation started and provides help in every step of the process, from the business case, through data migration, to application development and training. There is also a technical appendix covering the SGML standard and what is necessary to write SGML applications. This book contains years of practical experience by the authors. The reader will get up-to-speed very quickly, and will be able to build the business case and implement an SGML system in his organization

Abstract

It is accepted wisdom that documents should be represented in terms of their logical structure rather than their appearance. Nevertheless most of the popular document processing systems concentrate on appearance rather than structure, mainly because most users opt for a user interface that is interactive, simple and direct. Considers issues related to fonts and other appearance attributes within hypertext documents. Presents the relevant differences between hypertext systems and document preparation systems whose end product is paper Describes schemes for representing appearance through logical structure. The scheme aims to meet the extra needs of hypertext systems, and yet still to be simple enough to attract wide usage.

Abstract

This paper suggests a standard format for creating hypermedia software. Teachers and students of literature have taken up the use of hypermedia technology enthusiastically and so we are rapidly arriving at a situation where a mushrooming of software for language and literature teaching will be faced. We will arrive much sooner at a situation where searching for an appropriate software would be as difficult as finding an appropriate article today. Technology is expected to optimise information to maximise knowledge: the confusion created by Gutenberg's invention is because duplication cannot be avoided. The suggested format is based on the major pillars of literary criticism - author centred, text centred and reader centred - and develops from the word to the work level. The findings have been demonstrated in the form of Technocriticism, a hypermedia program created on HyperCard

Abstract

Reviews the introduction and growth of the Internet with particular reference to examples of sources of information on chemistry available on the Internet and WWW. Cites the advantage of the Internet as a cheaper way of accessing online database hosts, such as DIALOG, CAS/STN and QUESTEL-ORBIT. Concludes with a discussion of the electronic publishing opportunities of the Internet, noting the 4 major components of such a development: peer review, quality control, copyright and language issues; the role and activities of publishers and periodicals of the future; the future role of the abstracting services, particular in the area of improved quality control; and the users of chemical information

Abstract

Current hypertext systems have been widely and effectively used on relatively small data volumes. Explores the potential of database technology for aiding the implementation of hypertext systems holding very large amounts of complex data. Databases meet many requirements of the hypermedium: persistent data management, large volumes, data modelling, multi-level architecture with abstractions and views, metadata integrated with operational data, short-term transaction processing and high-level end-user languages for searching and updating data. Describes a system implementing the storage, retrieval and recall of trails through hypertext comprising textual complex objects (to illustrate the potential for the use of data bases). Discusses weaknesses in current database systems for handling the complex modelling required

Abstract

This article examines the entry of the major academic publishing houses into the WWW publishing. The study identified that during 1997, traditional academic publishers made significant commitments to putting tables of content, abstracts, and the full-text of their print journals on the Web. At the same time, new services and organizations emerged that could ultimately compete with, or eliminate, the need for certain segments of the industry. The authors suggest that these early experiments in Web publishing began unevenly with areas that needed improvement. The article concludes with a discussion about the implications of the traditional academic publisher's presence on the Web

Abstract

The abbreviation SGML stands for Standard Generalized Markup Language. Markup refers to adding style and formatting information to text prior to publication. It is a standard because SGML has been accepted and published by the ISO, and is not owned by any manufacturer or software vendor. It is generalized because SGML is powerful and flexible, allowing it to be used in many applications. And it is a language that embodies a specification for creation of a set of rules to define the structure of a document. SGML has been designed to easily cross incompatible computer platforms, and its 'open' nature allows for relatively simple access and manipulation of an SGML conforming document by both people and computers. Above all, SGML proposes a new way of thinking about document creation and presentation, by shifting document style considerations to the publication process rather than the creation process. This is done by dividing the document into names, logical elements, to which any style can be later applied. A byproduct of this approach is the effective creation of a flexible database, providing further access to the data for information retrieval or for re-publication

Abstract

Electronic books have become an important mechanism for the dissemination of large volumes of multimedia and hypermedia information. The utility of books of this sort depends very much upon the use of efficient and effective end user interfaces that embed appropriate book related metaphors. Discusses the use of such metaphors and some experiments aimed at evaluating the uitlity of the book metaphor with respect to reading and referencing tasks. Presents a case study (the Book Emulator) which illustrates how information technology can be used to create online books and lectures for use in university teaching. Concludes with a short discussion of some possible future directions of development of electronic books, that add enhancements to the basic book metaphor and which will enable easier and more widespread access to publications of this sort

Abstract

The SGML is an international standard (ISO 8879) allowing the logical structure of electronic documents to be represented rigorously and independent of applications. Proposes a strategy that libraries can consider when implementing SGML applications on top of existing products, or when embedding these in innovative end user services. Discusses experiences of SGML, within the VUBIS-Antwerpen Library Network (Belgium). VUBIS-Antwerpen has adopted SGML as a key standard for the exploitation of its bibliograpical data (union catalogues, document ordering, online contents, current awareness, publishing on the WWW). With the move towards electronic publication and distribution of documents, SGML tends to become a crucial standard for digital libraries. Projects such as TEI, ELSA, DECOMATE and ELVYN now focus on access to and elivery of full text electronic documents, using SGML to manipulate, process and transform documents for the purpose of full text searching or hypertext navigation
