| Abstract | : The http protocol is a fundamental component of the current design of WWW. It provides a bulk transfer mode of operation, suitable for today's networks of limited bandwidth. The protocol for Hyper-G is similar, with important extensions for Hyper-G concepts of links, anchors, search and collections. We discuss a bulk transfer hyperdocument protocol for a distributed hypermedia system which permits an open document model architecture. This protocol is intended to support the hypermedia semantics of HyTime. We discuss the implications of these semantics on the protocol design, and compare this work with other approaches. We discuss implementation work in developing a distributed HyTime server. 1 Introduction A basic constraint in existing distributed hypermedia systems such as WWW and Hyper-G is that the document model is fixed. In the case of WWW, the native document model is HTML. In the case of Hyper-G, the native document model is HTF. Of course both systems support other document... |
