....structure being de ned through a declarative speci cation [15] For a programming language, this would be the language grammar) A collection of rich device independent presentation services is provided on top of the document model, facilitating device dependent views of the presentation. Munson [31] describes a model of presentation based on attribute propagation, box layout, tree elaboration, and interface functions. Maverick [29] presents a di erent model based on tree transformations. Both presentation models are designed to be applied to a diverse array of documents drawn from many ....

The first version of the presentation system is summarized in a conference paper [11] a later version is described in Munson s dissertation [19]. 6.2 Annotation One common language feature intended for human comprehension is the comment. In most text based languages, comments are text as well, and are separated from other constructs in the language by delimiters. Comments are normally ignored by language translators or interpreters. ....

Alternatively, we considered Munson s approach in the Proteus system [31] and Murata s more general approach [32] which is based on tree automata. Murata s approach is the closest technique to ours, although more traditional and quite different. But, we were faced with an additional constraint that changed our thinking.

....environments, software management environ ments and alternate program representations. Programming environments are systems that integrate program analysis into the editing environment. The Cornell Program Synthesizer (CPS) 21] introduced the syntaxdirected editing approach. Ensemble [13], and its predecessor Pan [22] sought to provide novel presentation and user interface features. Ensemble added support for informal multimedia documents and style sheets, but lacked a uniform document model encompassing source code. Neither Ensemble or Pan could support fine grained hypermedia ....

....parsing algorithm is still not general for all structural units of a program. The contextual information of a structural unit needs to be considered in the incremental parsing process. The style sheet and presentation systems are very simple. A more powerful style sheet system such as Proteus [13] or Constraint CSS [2] would be preferable so that users can have more control over the presentation of programs and XML documents. Finally, a usability study is necessary to evaluate this new environment systematically. 5 Conclusion The Software Concordance is an IDE exploring the use of ....

The author s dissertation research [28] investigated a more general approach to presentation. This research showed there exists a core set of presentation services which can be shared by independent modules for different media within a larger system. This work produced a portable style sheet system, Proteus [12, 26] that can be ....

....Toolkit (Mayer Patel Rowe 1997) We are interested the use of explicit, declarative models of media to control the behavior of multimedia authoring systems. Our interest in this topic began with the development of a style sheet 1 system, called Proteus (Graham, Harrison, Munson 1992; Munson 1994), which could be adapted to serve different media through declarative media descriptions. Initially, these descriptions were made in the form of C objects, but they are now written in a small specification language called MSPEC (Munson 1997) Using this approach, Proteus has been adapted to work ....

.... use a constraint based model of layout, because constraints are better suited to non textual media than the flow models used in text oriented style sheet systems [3, 6, 12] Some multimedia style sheet systems [14] only use constraints for layout, but in our work on the Proteus style sheet system [2, 11] and the PSL style sheet language [9] we use constraints as the foundation of the entire style management process. This approach gives the PSL language uniform and relatively simple semantics and the runtime system of Proteus exhibits a similar uniformity in its underlying mechanisms. We have ....

....there is no particular sign that this imprecision is stifling intellectual or commercial innovation. This paper counters such arguments by showing how the more rigorous definition for the concept of a medium is used to configure Proteus, a presentation specification for multimedia documents [8, 13]. Proteus provides a set of generic presentation services which can be adapted to serve a variety of clients via descriptions of media that are based on the operational model. The next section describes a widely held, but naive, model of media based on data types and its limitations. Section 3 ....

Section 4 shows how the model can be applied to discriminate between media and to configure the Proteus presentation system [8, 13]. Section 5 describes a number of issues that require further research. Section 6 discusses related work including the independently developed AHV model of media [2] The final section of the article presents some conclusions. 2 The Data Type Model Buford s definition of multimedia given in the ....
