Abstract
As hypermedia publications keep on growing in volume and complexity, sophisticated means for accessing and presenting their information content becomes increasingly crucial. Not only are powerful and flexible search mechanisms required, it is equally important to have retrieved information rendered in an appealing and comprehensible manner, considerate of the user’s query context and the gist of his information interest. It is our belief that a combination of improved search techniques and dynamic generation of search results in graphic as well as in text form will be needed to produce successful electronic publications.
