They are part of a pattern language for hypermedia applications and address the design of healthy navigational structures. They can be applied in stand-alone applications or in dynamic Web sites or Information Systems. 1. Introduction. Designing High Quality Hypermedia Applications. Hypermedia applications provide the user with navigational access...Thu Oct 19 17:52:23 CEST 2006Patterns Systems for Hypermedia1997hypertext patterns The hypermedia domain is currently receiving much attention, mostly due to the new generation of open systems, i.e., those that allow the connection among applications in the same or different machines (intranets) or those that publish the interface of an application in a WWW's browser. However, current applications in this domain are not taking profit of all benefits that characterize hypermedia applications, and maintenance is very difficult to achieve. Building large hypermedia applications...Thu Oct 19 17:52:23 CEST 2006Proceedings of Hypertext '98Bernstein: Patterns of Hypertext1998patterns hypertext The complexity and unruliness of the complex webs of links we create has frequently led to calls for "structured" or otherwise disciplined hypertext. While calls for clearer structure have tried to avoid, consolidate, or minimize links, it is now clear that hypertext cannot easily turn its back on complex link structures. Where it was once feared that the cognitive burdens of large, irregular link networks would overwhelm readers, we find in practice that myriad casual readers flock to the docuverse. The growth of literary and scholarly hypertext, the evolution of the Web, and the economics of link exchange all assure the long-term importance of links.
