Abstract

Presents a study on hypertext examining the cognitive styles and spatial ability of users; the complexity of tasks; and the strucutre of information organization and the visualization of the structure. Future work on hypertext usability should emphasize task taxonomies along with longitudinal and ethnographic studies for a deep understanding of the interactions between users and hypertext

Abstract

Investigates information-seeking tasks and associated cognitve issues in the context of interacting with an evolving collaborative hypertext. Fishexe view browsers were used to facilitate exploring in a large information space. The fishexe view browser was extended to incorporate word frequencies. The effects of the fisheye view browser and the changing document were tested with 2x2 factorial experiment. Multivariate tests founs a significant interaction between the 2 factors and a significant main effect of the fisheye view browser. The users who had access to the word frequency information performed their tasks more effectively than the users without access to word frequencies. This work implies that several aspects of an evolving hypertext might als be useful incorporated in an associated fishexe view browser

Abstract

Introduces a generic approach to the development of hypermedia information systems. Emphasises the role of intrinsic inter-document relationships in structuring and visualising a large hypermedia information space. Illustrates the use of this approach based on 3 types of similarity measurements: hypertext linkage, content similarity and usage patterns. Salient patterns in these relationships are extracted and visualised in a simle and intuitive associated network. The spatial layout of a visualisation is optimised such that closely related documents are placed near to each other and only those intrinsic connections among them are shown to users as automatically generated virtual links. Supports self-organized information space transformation based on usage patterns and othe feedback such that the visual strucutre of the information space is incrementally tailored to users' search and browsing styles

Abstract

This paper discusses some problems encountered in hypermedia-based collaboration and reuse, and presents a conceptual framework to resolve these problems. Three suggestions are made based on the discussion: (1) extra organizational structures are necessary in shared hypermedia to support collaborative interactions; (2) an abstract schema is a key to capture the dynamic nature of the shared hypermedia; (3) an integration of the schema evolution approach and the workflow approach is recommended for an open system hypermedia teamwork support. The whole authoring environment is divided into several component spaces with particular respect to the Dexter Hypertext Reference Model. Not only can this separation reduce the overall complexitiy of working within such an environment, but it also conforms more closely with human cognitive needs in collaborative authoring and reuse activities
