An Overview of Hypertext

  • Chapter
Information Retrieval and Hypertext

Part of the book series: Information Retrieval and Hypertext ((EPUB))

Abstract

In the late eighties, the first generation of hypertext systems started to become widely available [17, 29, 36, 38]. Right from the beginning of their availability, these systems have been a topic of great attention from the information retrieval research community as potential tools to be used to implement new information retrieval ideas and capabilities.
