Learning to use hypertext systems with metaphors: An interface design perspective
As hypertext systems are becoming more and more powerful and popular, users are faced with the problem of adapting to the innovative style of information retrieval. Because of this, there is a need to articulate strategies which can be applied to hypertext environments to make the transition from …

Effects of Linear, Hypertext, and Hypertext With Advisement Approaches on Computer-Assisted Learning
… with network branching capabilities, learners of hypertext systems are freed from the conventional linear, highly directed flow of presentation, and are allowed to have high level of learner control of instructional sequence. Until very recently, hypertext design has been theory-rich and …

The Effects of Multidimensional Navigational Aids and Individual Differences on WWW Hypertext Navigation
The most common application of hypertext today is found on the World Wide Web, with the numbers of sites and potential users increasing continually. Hypertext systems are characterized by hyperlinks that allow users nonsequential access to the documents contained within them. Because users are not …

Pre-fetch document caching to improve World-Wide Web user response time
… multiple user caches running on cache relay systems. These systems are mostly post-caching systems; they perform no "look ahead," or pre-fetch, functions. This research studies a pre-fetch caching scheme based on Web server access statistics. The scheme employs a least-recently used …

The influence of hypertext linking structures and task-related variables on information retrieval tasks
Hypertext is a method of online information management and/or presentation where textual documents are parsed (modularized) into many nodes and inter-connected using machine-supported links. These systems have become increasingly popular in numerous applications. Unfortunately, few empirical …

An evaluation of methods of indicating active words in hypertext documents
… methods of indicating active (linked) words in hypertext documents were investigated. The Methods consisted of font-manipulation techniques (such as shadowed and outlined text), word-enclosure techniques (variations of a box and pseudo-brackets around the word), and "punctuation-like" icons …

Separation of educational and technical content in educational hypermedia
The creation and development of educational hypermedia by teachers and educational staff is often limited by their lack of computing skills, time and support from the educational institutions. Especially the lack of computing skills is a hinderance to most of today’s educational experts. The …
