TLDR
Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.Abstract:
Medicine is an ideal domain for hypertext applications and research. Implementing a popular medical handbook in hypertext underscores the need to study hypertext in the context of full-text document retrieval, machine learning, and user interface issues.read more

The Impact of Learning Style on Problem-Solving Performance in a Hypertext Environment
TL;DR: Experiential learning theory, introduced by Kolb, suggests that people develop different learning styles as discussed by the authors, and a study was conducted to determine whether or not individuals who exhibit certain learning styles tend to be different learners.

Hypertext-based relationship management for dss
Tomas Isakowitz,Edward A. Stohr +1 more
TL;DR: The kinds of information and relationships that arise during the development and use of a DSS are discussed, there are requirements for an independent subsystem to manage this information base, and the use of an extended hypertext software system, H+, is proposed to simultaneously handle relationship management and provide an interesting and useful interface to users.
The Social Dimension of Information Ranking: A Discussion of Research Challenges and Approaches.
TL;DR: This chapter argues that, due to the fact that information systems are increasingly interwoven with the social systems into which they are embedded, the ranking and filtering of information is effectively a socio-technical problem.

Refreshing cached documents and storing differential document content
TL;DR: In this paper, a server identifies whether certain preconditions have been met for a document in a cache from freshness parameters associated with a document identifier for the document, and when the precondition have been reached, a first document content is retrieved from a remote host.

Translating phrases from one language into another using an order-based set of declarative rules
TL;DR: In this paper, an ordered set of rules is applied to generate a representation that expresses the information in a manner that embodies applicable communication system rules of a target symbolic communication system in which the information is to be communicated.

Fusion, propagation, and structuring in belief networks
TL;DR: It is shown that if the network is singly connected (e.g. tree-structured), then probabilities can be updated by local propagation in an isomorphic network of parallel and autonomous processors and that the impact of new information can be imparted to all propositions in time proportional to the longest path in the network.

Information needs in office practice: are they being met?
TL;DR: The self-reported information needs of 47 physicians during a half day of typical office practice were studied, and physicians raised 269 questions about patient management, related to all medical specialties and were highly specific to the individual patient's problem.

Connectionist expert systems
TL;DR: Connectionist networks can be used as expert system knowledge bases and can be constructed from training examples by machine learning techniques, giving a way to automate the generation of expert systems for classification problems.
