Abstract

Our overall research goal is to provide hypermedia functionality to information systems (IS) through the WWW with minimal or no change to the IS itself. We feel that the systems should be able to generate links dynamically using a mapping mechanism to generate the hypermedia constructs instead of the links being hard-coded. This paper provides a systematic procedure for analyzing IS and building mapping rules to supplement them with a rich layer of links and other navigation, structuring, and annotation tools, resulting in new ways to view and manage knowledge and information relationships.
