XML and Hypermedia Applications

There has been a lot of criticism on the World Wide Web and its incapacity of properly representing hypermedia content. On the other hand, new standardization efforts are being carried out by the WWW Consortium to enrich the semantics of the Web and provide better hypermedia and structure awareness. Notably, the Extensible Markup Language (XML) has received considerable attention from both researchers and application developers. In this paper we present an example of a Web site developed in XML and point out some advantages of using this new technology. We focus our attention in authoring Web sites and in data integration applications. We point out the main problems faced by hypermedia authors using current HTML technology and how those problems are addressed in the XML framework. We also outline briefly how traditional hypermedia design methods can be tailored to use XML as underlying markup language.
