.... Proxies are usually used for network infrastructure reasons (such as caching and controlled access to the Internet) and pass content verbatim, although it is possible for them to alter content as it passes through[5] 7] Systems based on this principle already exist, e.g. DLS[4] 8] and Webvise[3] although they differ from Goate in that they aim to use the browser as one viewer in a larger hypertext system, the proxy being one method of adding links to documents. Goate is a purely proxy only solution, focused on being high level linking to the browser. 3.4 Presentation Underlining as a ....

....the addition of hypermedia functionality to any document without changing the original format of the document or embedding mark up information within it. Open hypermedia also incorporates some other concepts such as link maintenance and reuse, as demonstrated by the research in the field [7] 13] [17] [http: www.cs.aue.auc.dk ohswg ] As far as interoperability is concerned, a protocol [9] has been proposed towards allowing the interchange of information among applications. The overall approach is supported on the Dexter Reference Model [22] This discussion demonstrates how the areas of ....

....have been identified, links should be created to allow hypertext based navigation. One attractive way of supporting hypertext links is exploring open hypermedia concepts to provide hypermedia functionalities to applications. Systems such as Distributed Link Service (DLS) 7] and Webvise [17] were designed to bring the open hypermedia philosophy to the web. Webvise is an open hypermedia service which, integrated with Microsoft products, supports the creation and the maintenance of di#erent types of open hypermedia structures such as contexts, links, annotations, collections and guided ....

WebAnn, the system I wrote, extends the Internet Explorer web browser and will be described in detail in Chapter 3. Two early research prototypes, WebVise [GS99] and ComMentor [RMW97] both supported annotations by extending the browser. WebVise extended a number of Microsoft applications to support adding notes that look similar to post its and creating links from text in a 15 document to other web pages. The annotations could also be viewed using a Java ....

....this paper aims at paving the path for the adoption of XLink and its full support by browsers. We believe that in order to be successful for the Web, open hypermedia must be really open. Existing systems supporting third party links such as the Distributed Link Service (DLS) 9] or Webvise [23,24], implement OHS, but make it hard for independent software developers to create components which could be used in conjunction with the prototypes, because they are based on their own proprietary data and link models. While the applications scenarios of these systems were very inspiring, they also ....

However, the first description of a device that through electric or mechanical means provided what we today understand as hypermedia functionality was the hypothetical Memex, invented by Vannevar Bush in his landmark article As We May Think [23] published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1945. The Memex allowed the reader to speedily transverse a vast corpus of literature, to annotate pages, and to store the trails taken through this landscape of text. The Memex had near infinite storage capacity using microfilm, and new collections of texts ....

A plethora of web based research annotation systems has been developed to explore the issues [1] 6] 7][12][13] 20] and a few commercial systems have been brought to market [11] 19] 21] 24] In addition, a number of standards exist which support annotations to some degree [8] 9] 10] 15] 18] But to the best of our knowledge, no one has attempted to establish a single foundational standard for ....

The Annotator [20] and WebVise [12] systems support more flexible non HTML methods for anchoring their annotation items, however the annotations they support have a constrained structure. None of these systems offer a model as powerful, flexible, and extensible as CAF for annotating diverse digital resources. 9.4 Commercial ....

The generated guided tours can be used by readers in plain browsers without using Java or any plug in.

The Webvise system is a full blown open hypermedia system, which has been extended with an integrated guided tour editor and viewer as well as a generator to export guided tours in plain HTML and PNG formats for access through a browser only.
