Links in Hyper-G
- Links in text, image, audio, video, PostScript, and 3D model
documents (-> real hypermedia).
- Links stored in separate database:
- bidirectional (followable backwards)
- graphical link map
- automatic link maintenance
- creating a link does not necessitate editing a document
- Link types: standard (reference), annotation, inline, texture, ...
- Link rights: private and group links.
- Links in HTML and VRML documents are extracted at
upload time and merged in again on retrieval (and during document
editing).
- Links are implemented internally as anchor-anchor relations.
