....user has to do to keep track of their location in hyperspace. Much research has attempted to address these potential problems, and proposed solutions include the use of navigational metaphors (for example the book and newspaper like metaphors presented to the user by the OpenBook [40] and VOIR [35] systems) sophisticated overview maps ( 33, 46, 61, 13, 70] link reduction algorithms (Walden s Paths [32] and recommender systems (MEMOIR [67] Lynch and Horton [51] the authors of the influential Yale CLAIM Web Style Guide, express strong concern about associative linking on the WWW, ....

....these links implicitly through other means. Even accepting the limited nature of the research Web, hypertext systems may pose problems of disorientation, as well as cognitive and information overload [12, 55] A number of solutions have been suggested, including the use of navigational metaphors [24, 35], sophisticated overview maps [22, 36, 40] link reduction algorithms [18] and collaborative systems [43] although none have been implemented on a large scale. Although others have argued that these concerns for the hypertext reader are exaggerated [4, 13] the scholar as a hypertext writer ....

....segments of the retrieved articles. The clustering process, which is the core of the hypertext construction, is done on the fly and only for the set of the retrieved articles. A recent proposal of integrating hypertext and information retrieval especially for the newspaper domain can be found in [Golovchinsky and Chignell, 1997], in which the VOIR system is described. In this work, the link construction is based on feedback from users. Query terms that distinguish well among articles become candidate nodes for hypertext. However, despite the usage of structural links and term links, the temporal aspect is still ignored. ....

....the database. Thus users could specify a topic, use VOIR to retrieve a collection of articles matching the topic, and then browse the underlying structure of the corresponding domain objects. This interface was also integrated with an automatic visualization algorithm (Riechenberger et al., 1995; Golovchinsky et al., 1995) that synthesized graphical representations of the data associated with the retrieved articles. The visualization could be imbedded in the newspaper layout as a visual summary of the text. 75 6.6.2 HCI Bibliography The abstracts comprising the HCI Bibliography (Perlman, 1991) were converted from ....

....of underlying text, constructs queries from this text, runs the queries against a full text database, and presents links to retrieved documents. This is a form of queryless information retrieval, where the system hides the query syntax from the user; another example may be found in VOIR [5], 4] In the following sections, we briefly compare queries derived from annotations with relevance feedback queries, and then describe an experiment based loosely on the TREC interactive track that compared them. 3. QUERY EXPANSION Relevance feedback and annotation based queries are automatic ....

....the different topics. Annotations. We recorded the sentences annotated by each subject, and measured the pairwise overlap for each topic. A one way ANOVA on sentence overlap (normalized by the geometric means) with topic as the independent variable revealed significant differences among topics (F[5,264]=13.4, P 0.01) post hoc pairwise comparisons of means indicated that topics 104 and 149 topics with less overlap were consistently grouped together (showed no reliable differences in means) as were topics 103, 126, 127 and 143. The partitioning was not perfect, however: the means for topic ....

....Thus, although it may be possible to open each node in a separate window and to let the user manage their layout, the large number of windows created in this manner would quickly overwhelm the user. One solution to this problem is to use the newspaper metaphor to organize search results [13] [10]. Newspapers are designed to organize large numbers of loosely related units of internally coherent text. Articles may also be grouped by topic, related articles appearing together. Finally, the amount of space allocated to an article and its position on the page provide the reader with cues to ....

....space is allocated to them. These layout features serve to alert the reader to potentially useful information, and to structure interaction with a text that does not possess an overall narrative. 1 These features of a newspaper make it an appropriate vehicle for displaying hypertext information [18]. Users can capitalize on their familiarity with newspapers to browse hypertext collections. In addition to providing similarity based structure, the newspaper metaphor can support the notion of landmark nodes [29] and hypertext links. The front page of a newspaper serves as a landmark around ....
