The Future of Hypertext

1. Spatial Hypermedia
 e,g, Storyspace, Websquirrel, Tinderbox
 - Tools for supporting emergent structure
 - A visual/spatial metaphor allows people to express the nuances of structure, especially ambiguous or partial
 - Focus on creation of structure / visual and spatial properties (position, colour, border, shape, etc)
 - Spatial Hypertext Systems: Notecards, gIBIS, VNS, Aquanet, VIKI, VKB
 - Structure Parsing in VIKI (Virtual Interactive Kinetic Intelligence)
  * VIKI performs a bottom-up hierarchical parse
  * Recognised Structures: Vertical list / Horizontal list / Stack / Pile
  * Spatial structures and relationships: By spatial arrangement / By object type / By collection / By composite
  * Spatial Parsers: produce explicit structure by interpreting the implicit structure in a space

2. Temporal hypermedia
 : time-based hypertext
 - The business of inserting links into temporal and continuous media
 - Microcosm Sound Viewer (1993): early innovative work on putting jump links into sound files
 - The Amsterdam Hypermedia Model (1994): concerned with provision of systems to author multimedia presentations and synchronise multiple data streams
 - HyTime: Hypermedia/Time-based Structuring Language
 - MPEG-7: a standard for describing features of multimedia content
 - Synchronised Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL): the W3C format for multimedia on the Web

3. Computational Hypermedia
 - issues 4: Computation in (over) hypermedia networks of Halasz's seven issues ( http://gomisol.blog.me/220917262044 )
  => provides APIs to allow cards to be orchestrated and scripts to be executed when certain events occur
 - NoteCards: script cards that orchestrate the display of other cards
 - Trellis: Petri Net-based hypertext
 - ILEX: Dynamic hypertext system that generates both nodes and links at run-time
 - PageRank: Algorithm used by Google to rank search results

4. Conceptual Hypermedia
 : Hypermedia + Ontologies
 => the kind of hypertext whose structure and links are derived from the relationships between objects in the real world

5. Pervasive Hypermedia
 - Pervasive Computing
 - Interactive Spaces
 - Augmented Reality

6. Adaptive Hypermedia
 : Adaptation based on some user model
 - Intelligent Tutoring Systems
 - Adaptive Navigation
 - Adaptive Presentation
