Abstract

A small part of Roget's thesaurus was implemented as a hypertext system using HyperCard. A number of issues relating to interface design, structure visualisation and hypertext capabilities were elucidated. Concludes that many of theses issues would be more satisfactorily solved in a 2nd implementation with Supercard

Abstract

Describes a project which modelled the human reading of a printed maintenance manual and designed and implemented a hypertext version of the document using Apple Computer's HyperCard. Since few fully specified hypertext systems have been deployed, the research was undertaken to build a platform on which notions about the efficacy of nonlinear text processing for a specific application could be tried out. Describes a stackware version of a portion of an aircraft maintenance manual and considers issues of data storage models, user interface, and information retrieval methods for online text. These elements - among others - are the essence of the new rhetoric for non-sequential text

Abstract

Defines virtual browsing as serendipity on a computer. Considers whether virtual browsing is a reality. Recommends Wide Area Information Service (WAIS) for finding specific information. WAIS uses the Z39.50 standard for searching text. Documents on WAIS servers are completely indexed and compiled into libraries ranging from the law library of Columbia Univ. to idiosyncratic collections. Discusses HyperWAIS, the Macintosh implementation of HyperCard

Abstract

Reviews Bookends 2 bibliographic database management system for the Macintosh, unique among bibliographic utilities in that it is a HyperCard stack. Describes entering and importing data; searching data, refining and sorting match lists; and formatting bibliographies. Although its imporing features need improvement, Bookends 2 is a relatively easy to use bibliographic management system with some very useful formatting capabilities

Abstract

The MacNOTIS interface development and test used the Apple Macintosh, HyperCard, and MitemView communications Software to develop and test an intuitive interface to NOTIS systems. While the concept and design were viewed favorably by the users, technical and speed issues made the interface too slow for widespread use. MacNOTIS pointed the way to several interface enhancements that should be incorporated in future NOTIS user interfaces

Abstract

Feature on OCLC's SiteSearch suite of software, first introduced in 1992, and how it is helping over 250 libraries integrate and manage their electronic library collections. Describes the new features of version 4.0, released in Apr 1997, which include a new interface, Java based architecture, and an online documentation and training site. Gives an account of how Java is helping the Georgia Library Learning Online (GALILEO) project to keep pace on the WWW; the use of SiteSearch by libraries to customize their interface to electronic resources; and gives details of Project Athena (Assessing Technological Horizons to Educate the Nashville Area), which is using OCLC SiteSearch to allow area library users to search the holdings of public and university libraries simultaneously

Abstract

The Wolverhampton Web Library (WWLib) is a WWW search engine that provides access to UK based information. The experimental version developed in 1995, was a success but highlighted the need for a much higher degree of automation. An interesting feature of the experimental WWLib was that it organised information according to DDC. Discusses the advantages of classification and describes the automatic classifier that is being developed in Java as part of the new, fully automated WWLib

Abstract

Are microcomputers able to support good IRSs? How do they cope with them? What types of IRS are currently available? After explaining the differences between IRSs using micros and IRSs using mainframes, this paper will describe various functions of 'microretrieval' (by which I mean IR on microcomputers) functions, possible criteria for selection, and essential differences between database systems. It will give a short market overview and compare some IRSs currently available (such as LARS, BRS, LIDOS, HYPERCARD, HEUREKA, CICADE, ALLEGRO, etc.) It will also explain how microretrieval could be the kernel of economic, scientific or technical integration and assist in the cooperation between countries with different levels of development

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

Project Jefferson was designed to help new students at the University of Southern California (USC) to acquire skills necessary for writing research papers through the example of research into ethical issues raised by the US Constitution. It runs on Macintosh Computers and is based on Apple Computer's HyperCard, a system wich allows users to browse different sources of information at their own pace and along their own routes while noting down useful discoveries in the notebook part of the system. Access to USC's locally mounted bibliographic data bases is also given without any tedious logging-on routines.

Abstract

Librarians find themselves today in a lively period of the evolution of user interfaces to online information. Most of the newer interfaces incorporate graphics, colour and mouse-supported searching to make intiation for the novics user easier and all searching more productive. Describes the University of Delaware's development of DELCAT MacPAC, a HyperCard-based front-end to the university's OPAC, adapted from Cornell University's MacPAC. The focus is on Delaware's customisation of MacPAC for its environment, including the support of remote users, and the testing, use, and distribution of the product

Abstract

The node size that should be used in a hypermedia system is an important design issue. 3 interpretations of node size are identified: storage (physical size), window size (presentation size), and length (logical size). an experiment in which presentation size and text length are varied in a HyperCard application is described. The experiment involves student subjects performing a fact retrieval task from a reference handbook. No interaction is found between these 2 independent variables. Performance is significantly better for the longer texts, but no significant difference is found for the 2 different window sizes

Abstract

Presents a Guided tour system for the WWW, called Ariadne, which implements the ideas of trails and guided tours, originating from the hypertext field. Ariadne appears as a Java applet to the user and it stores guided tours in a database format separated from the WWW documents included in the tour. Itd main advantages are: an independent user interface which does not affect the layout of the documents being part of the tour, branching tours where the user may follow alternative routes, composition of existing tours into aggregate tours, overview map with indication of which parts of a tour have been visited an support for getting back on track. Ariadne is available as a research prototype, and it has been tested among a group of university students as well as casual users on the Internet

Abstract

Explains how the Intranet (in effect an Internet limited to the computer systems of a single organization) developed out of the Internet, and what its uses and advantages are. Focuses on the Intranet developed in the Glaxo Wellcome organization. Briefly discusses a number of technologies in development, e.g. Java, Real audio, 3D and VRML, and summarizes the issues involved in the successful development of the Intranet, that is, bandwidth, searching tools, security, and legal issues
