“…An interesting idea that can be adopted to realise such a link service is the proposal of the general open cross-media annotation and link architecture by Signer and Norrie [24]. Similar to FAST, its basic idea is the separation of linking and annotation functionality from the annotated media.…”

“…In addition, the RSL model offers other features such as user management and support for overlapping hyperlinks via layering. To the best of our knowledge, the cross-media annotation and link architecture by Signer and Norrie [24] was the first to propose the concept of "extensibility on the visualisation layer" of a link service. Normally, when a link or annotation service is extended to support a new media type, also the user interface has to be extended to support the visualisation of the new media type.…”

“…In this paper, we outline a number of requirements for open cross-document linking solutions. We then present our prototype of a cross-document link service and browser which is based on the open cross-media link service architecture by Signer and Norrie [24]. We paid attention to the aspect of openness as defined by Signer and Norrie and provide a cross-document link solution that does not only provide extensibility on the model layer but also on the application layer by further investigating the concept of visual plug-ins introduced by Signer and Norrie [23].…”

“…Annotations can be done in many ways either manually coding the annotations into a text file or by using several annotation tools such as Greasemonkey scripts 2 and open annotation services [21]. We consider that annotation should be done by web developers, but since the use of annotation tools require little training they can be also mastered by experienced Web users.…”

Currently, many tasks performed on the Web prompt users to provide personal information through forms. Despite the fact that most users are familiarized with this kind of interaction technique, the use of Web forms is not always straightforward. Indeed, some users might need assistance to understand labels and complex data format required to fill in form fields that, quite often, vary from a Web site to another even when requesting similar data. Filling in forms can be tedious and repetitive as many Web sites request similar information. In this work we analyze user's interactions with Web forms and propose an approach for enhancing Web forms using client-side adaptation techniques in order to assist users to fill in Web forms. As the use of Web forms is closely related to the management of personal information our approach includes the support for data exchange between user's personal information management systems (PIMs) and third-party Web forms. The approach is illustrated by a set of client-side adaptation tools and a pervasive Personal Information Management Systems called PIMI.

Web forms are massively used as a very effective way for user interaction with information systems. Notwithstanding, filling in forms with personal data can be tedious and repetitive. Due to legal and technical constraints, full interoperability of information systems is not a straightforward solution. So that several clientside techniques have been developed in the last years to automate the task of filling in forms; for example, auto-filling and autocomplete are very well-known techniques that employ contextual information to fill in automatically Web forms. However, the accuracy of these techniques is limited by the contextual information available on the Web browser. Some information systems can record users' personal information on the server side and use them to provide pre-filled forms to returning users. The problem with such as an approach is that users must keep updated records of personal information in remote servers; legal and technical issues prevent from sharing personal data among different applications, thus users must maintain multiple accounts. Interestingly enough, the analysis of data requested in forms reveal a pattern in the set of pieces of personal information that are often required (e.g. names, affiliations, billing address, home address, bank account, etc). In this paper we propose a new approach for automating filling in form that relies on these patterns of personal information. Our ultimate goal is to provide means for supporting the exchange of data between user's Personal Information Management Systems (PIMS) and Web forms. The approach is supported by a tool called PIAFF (which stands for Personal Information Assistant for Filling Forms) and illustrated by a case study concerning forms used for student applications.
