Abstract
Using Topic Maps in Establishing Compatibility of Semantically Structured Hypertext Contents
Highlights
The growing use of hypertext systems through the Web has triggered a series of changes in information organization, storage, and retrieval concepts
With their non-linear associative structure, hypertext documents offer a number of innovations in relation to traditional printed documents, mainly in regard to research and learning processes, since hypertextual reading is predominantly based on navigation
Hypertext systems have some disadvantages for users, including cognitive overload and disorientation during navigation
Summary
The growing use of hypertext systems through the Web has triggered a series of changes in information organization, storage, and retrieval concepts. Considering the terminological and conceptual models, the author identified six possible correspondence types between elements from distinct vocabularies: (1) exact correspondence, (2) synonyms, (3) generic to specific, (4), mappable to a different pre-coordination level, (6) semantic factoring, and (6) antonyms.
