Specialized systems aiming at o ering hypertext functionality in users' computing have been discussed since the early days of hypertext. However, with the claim to also support other structure domains than node-link structures, hypertext systems had to overcome some challenges. Researchers came up with component-based approaches and low level structure services. Due to the raising omnipresence of the Web, research on traditional hypertext systems has been fading out over the past decade. is paper focuses again on hypertext infrastructures and goes beyond ongoing Web discussions. Based on lessons learned from well thought through previous work, we present a novel design for multi-structure supporting, general purpose hypertext systems that can be used in a series of application domains. e system provides intelligence analysis which is needed for sophisticated user support. We argue that this lets us use the hypertext system also as a visual analytics tool. Furthermore, for demonstration purposes we describe the use of the system in combination with a Web-based so ware engineering platform, which is part of the ongoing project ODIN.

Emerging structures change frequently and therefore require continuous structuring and restructuring of their representation.…”

“…Emerging structures change frequently and therefore require continuous structuring and restructuring of their representation. Recurring restructuring of networks of nodes and links, however, can be cognitively difficult and therefore time consuming [6]. Due to that overhead, traditional hypertext is poorly suited for many kinds of information analysis and design tasks [2].…”

“…Informal Spatial hypertext permits users to express implicit knowledge in visual information spaces. It thereby supports intuitive interaction with a visual medium and allows for direct manipulation of structure [6]. In spatial hypertext, modification of information happens immediately by changing spatial and visual properties and does not require formalisms [11].…”

Spatial Hypertext represents associations between chunks of information by spatial or visual attributes (such as proximity, color, shape etc.). This allows expressing information structures implicitly and in an intuitive way. However, automatic recognition of such informal, implicitly encoded structures by a machine (a so-called spatial parser) is still a challenge. One reason is, that conventional (non-adaptive) parsers are conceptually restricted by their underlying source of information (i. e., the spatial hypertext). Due to this limitation there are several types of structures that cannot be recognized properly. This inevitably limits both quality of parser output and parser performance. We claim that considering temporal aspects in addition to spatial and visual properties in spatial parser design will lead to significant increase in parsing accuracy, detection of richer structures and thus higher parser performance.For the purpose of providing evidence, parsers for recognizing spatial, visual and temporal object relations have been implemented and tested in a series of user surveys. It turned out, that in none of the test cases pure spatial or visual parser could outperform the spatio-temporal parser. Instead, the spatiotemporal parser was able to compensate limitations of conventional parsers. Furthermore, differences in parsing accuracy were successfully tested for statistical significance. The results indicate a non-trivial effect that is recognizable by humans. We have shown that the addition of a temporal parser shifts machine detected structures significantly closer to what knowledge workers intend to express.iii ResuméSpatial Hypertext repraesenterer associationer mellem informationsdele fra spatiale eller visuelle attributter (såsom naerhed, farve, form osv.) Dette gør det muligt at udtrykke informationsstrukturer implicit og på en intuitiv måde. Men automatisk genkendelse af sådanne uformelle, implicit kodede strukturer (ved anvendelse af en såkaldt spatial parser) er stadig en udfordring. En af grundene er, at konventionelle (ikke-adaptive) parsere begrebsmaessigt er begraenset af deres underliggende informationskilde (dvs. den spatiale hypertekst). På grund af denne begraensning, er der flere typer af konstruktioner, der ikke kan genkendes korrekt. Dette begraenser uundgåeligt både parser output kvaliteten og parser ydeevnen. Vi haevder, at inddragelse af temporale aspekter i tillaeg til spatiale og visuelle egenskaber i spatial parser design vil føre til betydelig øgning af parsing nøjagtighed samt detektering af rigere strukturer og dermed højere parser ydeevne.Med henblik på at vise dette, er parsere for genkendelse spatiale, visuelle og temporale objekt relationer implementeret og testet i en raekke brugerundersøgelser. Det viste sig, at i ingen af testcasene var en ren rumlig eller visuel parser mere effektiv end den spatio-temporale parser. I stedet var den spatiotemporale parser i stand til at kompensere for de konventionelle parseres begraensninger. Endvidere blev forskelle i parsing nøja...
