... there are no simple 'right' answers for most web design questions (at least not for the important ones). What works is good, integrated design that fills a need--carefully thought out, well executed, and tested.

Webb, T. and Jameson, D. G. (1988): Flexible Intelligent Interactive-Video. In: Jones, Dylan M. and Winder, R. (eds.) Proceedings of the Fourth Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers IV August 5-9, 1988, University of Manchester, UK. pp. 465-475.

University College and Middlesex School of Medicine are producing two interactive video (IV) discs for use in teaching Clinical and Surgical management. The system is designed to provide three modes of interaction and will have as its core an expert system on the domain covered by the disc. The combination of a knowledge-based system and video is very rich in information. The interface for such a system requires a format familiar enough for the user to assimilate it rapidly, but flexible enough to deal with the range of possible situations and combinations of information formats. Some lessons learnt from a previous IV project are discussed and some problems raised by the new system are aired. The authors have found like many before them, that paper-based information systems provide useful guidelines for effective presentation.
