Longpradit, Panchit, Hall, Wendy, Walters, Robert J., Gilbert, Lester, Gee, Quintin and Wills, Gary B. (2008): An Inquiry-led Personalised Navigation System (IPNS) using multi-dimensional linkbases. In New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia, 14 (1) pp. 33-55
The simplicity of the hypertext model behind the World Wide Web is a factor in its success, but this simplicity brings limitations. One of these limitations is embedding links in documents. Open Hypermedia addresses this by instead storing them in separate link databases. Meanwhile, the Adaptive Hypermedia approach seeks to enhance a user's experience by inserting personalised additional content and links on the web page. However, these techniques do not offer the user any control over the adaptation. In this paper, we propose the concept of a multi-dimensional linkbase for adaptive links presentation. Links are created and stored in a single, multi-dimensional, linkbase that provides presentation links based on the user's preferences and profile. We present a web-based system Inquiry-led Personalised Navigation System that implements this multi-dimensional concept for controlling its personalisation of hyperlinks. We give the results of our evaluation, which confirm that user-controlled adaptation is a satisfactory approach to providing users with control over personalisation, and can alleviate the link overload problem.

Wills, Gary B., Abbas, Noura, Chandrasekharan, Rakhi, Crowder, Richard M., Gilbert, Lester, Howard, Yvonne M., Millard, David E., Wong, Sylvia C. and Walters, Robert J. (2007): An agile hypertext design methodology. In: Proceedings of the Eighteenth ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia 2007. pp. 181-184. Available online
Customers are driving down lead times for software, especially for Web applications, to only a few months. While a number of hypertext design models exist, they do not address the issue of the requirements and analysis process that normally feeds the design process. In this paper we present an agile approach to developing hypertext applications, which focuses on the requirements and analysis stages, something that is largely ignored in current methodologies.
