TLDR
The versatility of the HAM can be illustrated by showing how Guide buttons, intermedia webs, and NoteCard FileBoxes can be implemented using its storage model.Abstract:
The HAM is a transaction-based server for a hyper text storage system. The server is designed to handle multiple users in a networked environment. The storage system consists of a collection of contexts, nodes, links, and attributes that make up a hypertext graph. The versatility of the HAM can be illustrated by showing how Guide buttons, intermedia webs, and NoteCard FileBoxes can be implemented using its storage model.read more

The Dexter hypertext reference model
TL;DR: The Dexter hypertext reference model as mentioned in this paper is an attempt to capture, both formally and informally, the important abstractions found in a wide range of existing and future hypertext systems, providing a principled basis for comparing systems as well as for developing interchange and interoperability standards.
Information Management: A Proposal
TL;DR: A hand conversion to HTML of the original MacWord (or Word for Mac?) document written in March 1989 and later redistributed unchanged apart from the date added in May 1990 is provided.
Patent
Hypermedia link marker abstract and search services
TL;DR: In this article, a set of hypermedia linking services enable client applications to incorporate hypermedia capabilities in an open system architecture, and the users are provided with a consistent hypermedia interface completely managed by the hypermedia services and not by the client application itself.

Petri-net-based hypertext: document structure with browsing semantics
P. David Stotts,Richard Furuta +1 more
TL;DR: A formal definition of the Trellis model of hypertext is presented and an authoring and browsing prototype called αTrellis that is based on the model is described, which is a generalization of existing directed graph-based forms ofhypertext.
Synthesis Lectures on Information Concepts, Retrieval, and Services
TL;DR: This book describes and evaluates a range of webicators for aspects of societal or scholarly impact, discusses the theory and practice of using and evaluating web indicators for research assessment and outlines practical strategies for obtaining many web indicators.
