We present an adaptive hypermedia architecture based on Golog and conceptual graphs. We propose a conceptual graph model for the description of the hypermedia structure and the use of Golog, a logic programming language, for the generation of the personalized hypermedia. This approach has been validated by a prototype and two examples based on different domains.

A number of studies in traditional class based education show that students whose learning styles match with the instructional approach “tend to retain information longer, apply it more effectively, and have more effective post course attitudes towards the subject than do their counterparts who experience learning/teaching mismatch. Thus, the goals of a “good instructor” should be both to adapt...

The GAIA framework prototype, described herein, explores the possibilities and problems that arise when combining versioning and open hypermedia paradigms. It will be argued that it by adding versioning as a separate service in the hypermedia architecture – is possible to build consistent versioning of both documents and hyperstructure. This approach eases some of the problems inherent in separ...

The emergence of Web technologies has made widespread the use of hypermedia systems as the underlying support for Information Systems in organizations. Hypermedia elements and their associated functionality in this context become organizational assets that are created, improved and delivered to users in an attempt to increase the overall value of the system. Semantic Web approaches to Informati...

A challenge of the semantic web is provision of distributed information with well defined meaning, understandable for different parties. The aim of open hypermedia research has been to support such understanding on hypertext structures since several years. In this paper we show how the semantic web resource description formats can be utilized for automatic generation of hypertext structures fro...

The World Wide Web has not only revolutionized the area of traditional hypermedia, it is also starting to influence adaptive hypermedia research. The main feature of the World Wide Web has been simplicity, standards based protocols and formats, and open environments and systems. In this paper we will investigate the potential of these aspects for adaptive hypermedia systems, based on a discussi...

The data used by physicians in patient care is hypermedia in true sense of the word. We propose a Distributed Hypermedia Model(DHM) to logically integrate distributed, multimedia patient data, and provide friendly user interface to give authorized physicians transparent access to these data across the network. This article discusses the architecture of DHM, which can serve as a model for defini...

In this paper, we discuss an approach that tries to blur the distinction between adaptive hypermedia and dynamic hypermedia. The approach aims at finding an optimal trade-off between resource reuse and flexibility: existing atomic pieces of data are collected and properly annotated; at the interaction time, the system dynamically builds the nodes of the hypermedia composing different pieces tog...

Many issues central to the success of distributed hypermedia systems exist aside from the actual content provided. One is the ability of information providers to easily present their services to their potential customers. Another is the ability of consumers to efficiently locate desired information. The wide acceptance of hypermedia information systems by the users will ultimately depend on the...
