Also, developers may not have sufficient working knowledge of hypertext and hypermedia to augment currently available systems. For many of these systems, hypertext must be integrated so seamlessly that users are unaware of its presence. Incorporating hypertext functionality should result in new ways to view a system's knowledge and processes conceptually, to navigate among items of interest and development steps, to enhance system knowledge with comments and relationships, and to target information displays to individual users and their tasks. This workshop focuses on the value added to a system by hypertext and hypermedia support capabilities as well as the actual process of embedding hypertext functions into non-hypertext information systems. The main theme for this workshop is engineering hypertext functionality , i.e., various aspects of constructing hypertext capabilities.
Participation is by invitation, based on submission of a position paper to the program chairs.
Selection for participation will be based primarily on the quality and relevance of submitted position statements, as recommended by the program committee. Electronic submission of papers is required, preferably as HTML or by electronic mail. All submissions must be accompanied with an email message to alert both program chairs. It is intended for all position papers to be made available on the WWW in advance as well as distributed in binders at the workshop. HTML versions of accepted papers are therefore required.
