ADDING NEW LINK TYPES TO RMM

• It is important to extend RMM and other model-based approaches to hypermedia design by incorporating a broader set of link types.

• Needs to consider not only the influence of information elements, but also the influence of computational elements.

PRESENT LINK TYPES IN RMM

• What presently is found in most of the hypermedia systems are static, Persistent and explicit links, defined over content, and that influences proposals for link type categorization.

• There are links that can initiate a process such as email, a video exhibition, an audio exhibition, or a file download.
