Hyper-G Client-Server Architecture
- Object manager maintains links, attributes (meta-data), and
structure.
- Document manager stores local documents, serves them to clients,
and fetches and caches remote documents.
- Full text server maintains full text inverted index
(incrementally) and services search requests.
- Web clients can speak HTTP or Gopher protocol to the server (Z39.50 planned).
- Hyper-G authoring tools speak HG-CSP.
- Hyper-G server can access remote Hyper-G, WWW, Gopher, FTP servers,
and external databases using SQL back-end.
