SGML ist eine Metasprache die geeignet ist Texte in natürlicher Sprache mit zusätzlichen Strukturen zu versehen und somit die Voraussetzung zu schaffen Volltextindexierungen in einer Weise vorzunehmen, wie dies bislang nicht möglich war. Der rasant zunehmende Bekanntheitsgrad der SGML liegt zweifellos an der bekanntesten Document Type Definition (DTD) im Rahmen der SGML, der Hypertext Markup La...

It is always a challenge to present Web applications at a facility with no Internet connection. Traditional presentation methods such as transparencies or slides are inadequate for demonstrating dynamic Web applications. Currently, virtual-live demonstrations of Web applications are created with static HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) files. However, preparing such presentations is tedious and ...

The surge of interest in the World-Wide-Web (WWW) with its potential commercial payoff has resulted in an explosion of information as organizations join in the bandwagon to publish and do business on the Internet. A related development, Intranet, which basically uses the same Internet technology to building private corporate WWW-based networks, has emerged to provide cost-effective and efficien...

The following paper presents a computer based learning strategy to assist in introducing and teaching water quality modelling to undergraduate civil engineering students. As part of the learning strategy, an interactive computer-based instructional (CBI) aid was specifically developed to assist students to set up, run and analyse the output from a commercially available water quality model (WQM...

We present a tool that enables complex, unfixed temporal structures in digital narrative and also facilitates the creation of works that are a hybrid of human authorship, structural design, and machine writing. The system has basic similarities with other tools for the development of non-linear and interactive narrative, but it is unique in its form and visual/textual behavior because it takes ...

This paper describes a Reusable Software Library (RSL) interface and search tool implemented using Mosaic. Mosaic provides a simple, easy-to-use method to nd and extract reusable assets from a RSL, allows distributed access to assets from a variety of platforms, and can support most of the features of formal RSLs without any modiications. Through the use of HyperText Markup Language (HTML) form...

By design, mobile computing aims to support numerous expressions of varying interfaces, contexts, and automation. Thus, as mobile computing becomes more prevalent, it is important that designers build systems in support of as many as possible unique, in-use, and user-defined characteristics. We explore these requirements and propose to support them with two existing standardized technologies: H...

This paper discusses emerging problems of VHML – the Virtual Human Markup Language. VHML is XML based and allows interactive Virtual Humans to be directed so that human-virtual human interaction is more effective. The language addresses issues related to Facial and Body Animation, Dialogue Management, Text to Speech production, Emotional Representation plus Hyper / Multi Media information. Vari...

In this paper we describe the Prague Markup Language (PML), a generic and open XMLbased format intended to define format of linguistic resources, mainly annotated corpora. We also provide an overview of existing tools supporting PML, including annotation editors, a corpus query system, software libraries, etc.

The Web is an open and free environment for people to publish and get information. Everyone on the Web can be either an author, a reader, or both. The language of the Web, HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), is mainly designed for information display, not for semantic representation. Therefore, current Web search engines usually treat Web pages as unstructured documents, and traditional informati...
