Toward an Hypermedia Design Patterns Space

چکیده
Finding hypermedia design patterns is becoming a new trend in hypermedia design. However, as in other domains, especially in software engineering and objectoriented design, too much increase without control in proposing hypermedia design patterns is going against the purpose of design patterns that is to provide easily reusable solutions to identified problems. The reason is that the metaknowledge about hypermedia design patterns is not yet well organized. Since hypermedia engineering is by nature a multidimensional space, hypermedia design patterns may take their meaning according to several dimensions. Thereby this position paper proposes some directions for organizing the space of hypermedia design patterns and analyzing their use, thus promoting their effective use during design and possibly identifying not yet known design patterns. Our aim is to provide a basis of discussion for hypermedia design patterns description and use.

Towards a Pattern Language for Hypermedia Applications
This paper presents two design patterns for the hypermedia domain: ‘Navigational Contexts’ and ‘Information on Demand’. They are applied in two different aspects of hypermedia applications design: the design of healthy navigational structures and the design of understandable and usable hypermedia interfaces, respectively. These two patterns are part of an effort for developing a Pattern Languag...

متن کاملThree Hypermedia Design Patterns
Hypermedia authors are now acquiring experience to build good hypermedia systems and assess their quality, and this experience should be compiled and organized in order to be shared with other authors. We propose three hypermedia design patterns for hypermedia publishing: hyper-book, hyper-map and virtual product.
متن کاملDesign Patterns in an Object-Oriented Framework for Hypermedia
In this paper we analyze design patterns generating the architecture of an object-oriented framework for hypermedia. We briefly discuss our problem: building a software substrate for seamlessly extending object-oriented applications with a hypermedia interface and navigational styles; we next present the outstanding components of an object-oriented framework providing the desired functionality....
متن کاملDesign Patterns for Object-Oriented Hypermedia Applications
This chapter proposes design patterns for object-oriented applications enhanced with hypermedia functionality. We briefly discuss our problem: building a software architecture for seamlessly extending object-oriented applications with hypermedia interface and navigational styles. Two new design patterns named ‘Navigation Strategy’ and ‘Navigation Observer’ are presented, showing how they are us...
