Aim: The field of hypermedia covers a
broad spectrum of systems and
facilities, which makes it possible to
combine heterogeneous media in
advanced information structures with
sound, video, text, graphics, etc. The
basic idea is to organise information
in a network of nodes and links to
form a searchable structure. Links
may represent many different types
of relationships (associations,
actions, etc.) between nodes and
parts of their contents. The course
gives an introduction to the basic
concepts, the history and
state-of-the-art of hypermedia.
Students will learn how to design
and evaluate hypermedia
applications with af specified
functionality.
|
Contents: The course gives an introduction to
several concepts: links,anchors,
organisation of information in
networks, compositional structures,
synchronisation of time-based data
(sound and video), browsing and
navigation. Furthermore, topics like
information retrieval and filtering,
support for cooperation and shared
whiteboards will be discussed. Early
examples of pioneering multimedia
and hypermedia systems (e.g.
Augment, Xanadu, Intermedia,
NoteCards, KMS) will be described.
New developments within
hypermedia on the Internet (WWW,
VRML and HyperWave), distributed
hypermedia and open hypermedia
(e.g. DEVISE Hypermedia,
MicroCosm, SEPIA) will also be
discussed. Students will have the
opportunity to get hands-on
experience with a number of these
systems.
Various principles for
implementation of hypermedia and
their strengths and weaknesses in
different areas of application will be
discussed. Specific areas, where
hypermedia can be applied, will be
mentioned, e.g. product
development, medical applications
and software development.
