Orchestrate: A System Demonstrating Easy Substitution of Browsing Semantics Engines
Abstract
The Orchestrate project explored the separation of a browsing semantics engine from the other user-visible components of a hypertext or other linking system. This allows more flexibility in the semantics of the links themselves, enabling more variety with regards to conditionals behind links, and ultimately will greatly help the implementation of new and different linking semantics. The project builds upon much previous work in hypertext and linking semantics. The Orchestrate platform was designed and implemented to model several new and novel linking semantics and behaviors. It was built with the goal of enabling further work and development to take place from within or without the program, and will very probably be used in future studies and enable future academic papers for submission to scholarly venues. Once initial review, improvements and testing of the initial build of the Orchestrate platform was completed, additional features and tests using various browsing semantics methods were undertaken.
