Assessing the quality of hypertext views
Peter Bruza, Th.P. van der Weide · ACM SIGIR Forum · 1990
In this article the problem of assessing the quality of hypertext views is considered. This is done in terms of a formal model of hypertext in which the view is a central aspect. The objects in a view are described in terms of so called index expressions which are a powerful object characterization mechanism. These characterizations are manipulated by a calculus, which allows quantification of notions such as cohesion and relevance. These latter are useful criteria for judging the quality of a view.
