Abstract

This paper introduces the design and architecture of the Hypermedia Presentation Composer, a knowledge-based tool for automatic hyperdocument delivery. The Hypermedia Presentation Composer follows the general design principle of an integrated publishing environment: the logical document structure is separated from all kinds of semantics. In doing so, the Hypermedia Presentation Composer serves as a vehicle to experiment with the presentation and delivery of electronic documents to different hypermedia systems.
