Abstract
Hypertext links play an important role in tracking the relationships within and among sets of documents. In our paper we discuss two approaches to creating dynamic workflow charts with time-sensitive linking and navigation support for training time-based project management in distributed Web-based environments. A bottom-up approach is based on the XML Linking Language (XLink) and the top-down approach is based on the XML Topic Maps (XTM) 1.0 specification.
