Summary
Consider viewing a subset of hypertext instead of considering the whole structure. The immediate neighborhood of a page is visible in its links. These links help define its context.A search or profile can further restrict the pages of interest.
In the Web, each web site defines its own subset of the web. (cbb 4/07)
Subtopic: web as a subset
Quote: Hypertext can filter information to reduce the level of complexity and detail [»conkJ9_1987] Quote: Hypertext users only interested in some aspect of knowledge; subsets of a Hypertext then shorten the access paths [»nanaJ12_1988] Quote: a conceptual document is a linear or hypertext document synthesized from a semantic web [»nanaJ12_1988]
Subtopic: HAM context
Quote: an Intermedia web is a context that defines a set of related blocks, links, keywords, and paths for a set of documents [»yankN10_1985] Quote: Hypertext webs define the links between nodes; these can be predefined or created [»carlPA_1988] Quote: each Intermedia link belongs to a set of webs and is visible only when a containing web is active [»conkJ9_1987] Quote: must open an Intermedia web to see link and block information while browsing [»yankN1_1988] Quote: the web object in Intermedia is the interface to the block and link database [»smitKE10_1987] Quote: only markers in the current Intermedia web are displayed [»smitKE10_1987]
Quote: a HAM context is a group of nodes and links [»bigeJ3_1988] Quote: HAM contexts can be merged; this does not convey node and link histories [»bigeJ3_1988] Quote: attribute-value pairs in HAM organize nodes and links into a subgraph, i.e., a context
