This work explores the design space of user interfaces for large-scale full-text database retrieval systems. Research suggests that elements of hypertext interfaces may be merged with traditional...
Hypertext interfaces are considered appropriate for information exploration tasks. The prohibitively expensive link creation effort, however, prevents traditional hypertext interfaces from being used...
ABSTRACT From Reading to Retrieval: Freeform Ink Annotations as Queries (2007)
Gene Golovchinsky, Morgan N. Price, Bill N. Schilit
User interfaces for digital libraries tend to focus on retrieval: users retrieve documents online, but then print them out and work with them on paper. One reason for printing documents is to...

Bridging paradigms: Spatial hypertext in the document world (2001)
Spatial hypertext has arisen from overview “map ” representations of conventional nodeand-link hypertexts (Shipman and Marshall, 1999). These spatial representations (e.g., Streitz et al., 1989;...
Hypertext Interaction Revisited (2000)
Gene Golovchinsky, Catherine C. Marshall
Much of hypertext narrative relies on links to shape a reader's interaction with the text. But links may be too limited to express ambiguity, imprecision, and entropy, or to admit new modes of...
An Interactive Comic Book Presentation for Exploring Video (2000)
John Boreczky, Andreas Girgensohn, Gene Golovchinsky, Shingo Uchihashi
This paper presents a method for generating compact pictorial summarizations of video. We developed a novel approach for selecting still images from a video suitable for summarizing the video and for...
Printertainment: Printing with Interactive Cover Sheets (1999)
