Presenting HyTime Documents with HTML

چکیده
HTML has become widely used as a format for hypermedia documents. It specifies a model for text documents with hypertext links and non-text media objects. While HTML has served the needs of current hypertextual usage, it falls short of answering the anticipated demands of hypermedia environments. In particular, HTML enforces a single document that is closely tied to its presentation. As such, HTML is an inappropriate format for the long-term storage of hypertext documents that may be presented by means other than HTML browsers.

متن کاملIntegrating Object-Oriented Scripting Languages with HyTime
HyTime provides a comprehensive set of primitives for composing hypermedia documents, but does not provide facilities for representing interaction or dynamic behavior, areas which are required in commercial multimedia authoring environments. In previous work we have developed and implemented a prototype HyTime engine called HyOctane in which HyTime interactive multimedia documents can be stored...
