TLDR
NoteCards is presented as a foil against which to explore some of the major limitations of the current generation of hypermedia systems, and characterizes the issues that must be addressed in designing the next generation systems.
Abstract
NoteCards, developed by a team at Xerox PARC, was designed to support the task of transforming a chaotic collection of unrelated thoughts into an integrated, orderly interpretation of ideas and their interconnections. This article presents NoteCards as a foil against which to explore some of the major limitations of the current generation of hypermedia systems, and characterizes the issues that must be addressed in designing the next generation systems.

The effects of menu design on information-seeking performance and user's attitude on the world wide web

TL;DR: The results showed different effect of menu design on both searching performance and browsing performance, and participants' searching performance was superior in the pull-down menu condition compared to the global and local navigation menu and the simple selection menu conditions.

Searching for the missing link: discovering implicit structure in spatial hypertext

TL;DR: This paper examines implicit structures that rely on the interpretation of node’s spatial context and indicates that recognition of implicit structures in spatial hypertext is feasible, interaction will be important in guiding such recognition, and the hypertext system can provide layout facilities that will render later systematic interpretation much easier.

Hyperdocuments as automata: verification of trace-based browsing properties by model checking

TL;DR: A view of hyperdocuments is presented in which each document encodes its own browsing semantics in its links, which requires a mental shift in how a hyperdocument is thought of abstractly.

Conversation in the museum: experiments in dynamic hypermedia with the intelligent labelling explorer

TL;DR: This work outlines experience with the Intelligent Labelling Explorer, a dynamic hypertext system developed at the University of Edinburgh, in collaboration with the National Museums of Scotland, and sketches the general architecture of the system.

Generalized fisheye views

TL;DR: This paper explores fisheye views presenting, in turn, naturalistic studies, a general formalism, a specific instantiation, a resulting computer program, example displays and an evaluation.
