To achieve the kind of diversity of association required for todays Web applications, documents need to be linked in many dimensions based on the content. Constructing such links manually is inconsistent and error-prone. Conceptual hypermedia systems explicitly represent the metadata describing the content of documents and can act, for example, as a classification structure to classify the documents; documents which share metadata are deemed to be similar in some way. Authoring links between documents becomes an activity of authoring with concepts. However, previous conceptual hypermedia systems have failed to use conceptual models of sufficient descriptive and reasoning power to be scalable, and have been implemented as bespoke closed monolithic systems. This project aims to improve significantly the quality, consistency and breadth of linking of WWW documents at retrieval time (as the investigation and development of documents) and authoring time (as authors create the documents) by the investigation and development of scalable ontology driven hypermedia link services within an open hypermedia framework. The result would be an infrastructure capable of supporting the design, deployment and maintenance of ontology-based conceptual hypermedia systems. The integration will be evaluated and refined with two real case study applications drawn from commercial collaborators.
