....vital for the description of hyperdocuments by using an object oriented approach, which contrasts very much to the common HTML XML implementation of hyperdocuments. The construction of hyperdocuments is generally not limited to structuring the media objects involved and their link structure (c.f. [Lowe and Hall, 1999], Chapter 9) Moreover, an overall view on hypermedia systems has to be taken into account including usability and presentation of hyperdocuments. For the time being, we restrict ourselves to the development of hyperlink structures. Hence, the visual appearance of media objects, i.e. their layout, ....

....on softwaretechnical methods and principles employed for usual object oriented software construction. We discuss a process that covers design, specification, implementation, testing and maintenance of hyperdocuments. The lack of testability and maintenance lowers the quality of a hyperdocument [Lowe and Hall, 1999]. Our approach supports these tasks and hence contributes to product quality. The paper is organized as follows. First, we briefly mention some related work in [Section 2] To comprehend the basic correlations between usual software development and hyperdocument development, we proceed backwards ....

The construction of hyperdocuments is generally not limited to structuring the media objects involved and their link structure (c.f.

....the department index would be included in the navigation tree on the left side while the right frame could include, for instance, some additional general information on all departments. 6 Related Work During the last few years many methods for hypermedia and Web design have been proposed; see [10] for an overview. Most of them are not based on the UML, like RMM (Relationship Management Methodology) 5] and OOHDM (ObjectOriented Hypermedia Design Method) 13] They utilise entity relationship diagrams, OMT or their own notation and techniques. Recently, some new approaches propose UML ....

....learning environments are software systems and as such they should be developed according to accepted software engineering practices. Although accepted design principles and operational guidelines in Webbased learning application development are still lacking, the book Hyper media the Web [LH99] represents the first serious attempt to overcome this deficit for the more general field of hypermedia engineering. This book defines principle concepts, quality attributes of hypermedia, and defines a development process in analogy to software engineering processes. We are not going to review ....

....of hypermedia engineering. This book defines principle concepts, quality attributes of hypermedia, and defines a development process in analogy to software engineering processes. We are not going to review this work and neither report on well known software engineering practices in the sequel. [LH99] also discusses a number of further hypermedia research developments including Microcosm [HDH96] and Hyperwave [Mau96] which both separate management of content from management of links and provide rich data models similar to HDM. The book authors conclusion about the state of development is ....

....the apparent clash of practice. It also covers a wider issue: many authors have extended the goto link analogy by likening the authorship of a hyperdocument to the task of writing programs, or, at a higher level, have mapped out a discipline of hypermedia engineering to match software engineering [13]. These comparisons can be valuable because hyperdocument authoring is a young discipline compared with the discipline of producing programs; if, by drawing parallels with programming, we can gain new insights into hyperdocument authoring, there are big potential gains. We must ensure, however, ....
