    KMEDIA-UNIX: An Object-Oriented Hypermedia System Based on the Dexter Reference Model and the MHEG Standard

    No full text
    In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a hypermedia system that has the following characteristics. First, being designed according to the Dexter hypertext reference model, it has a layered architecture and thus maintains commonality with other hypermedia systems based on the Dexter model. Second, being designed based on the MHEG standard, it has data structures that are inherently suitable for data interchange and synchronization. Third, adopting the MIME protocol, it provides multimedia mail services. Finally, being built on top of an object-oriented DBMS, it makes it easy to represent Dexter and MHEG models and also provides efficient storage and search capabilities. The contribution of this paper is combining these characteristics to build an integrated hypermedia system reflecting reference architectures and international standard efforts. Keywords: hypermedia systems, object-oriented model, Dexter hypertext reference model, MHEG standard, multimedia mail 1 In..
