“…computer programs, card catalogues) [Drakos 1994]. Interestingly, it would appear that paper-based documents can belong to this class providing they contain adequate and detectable representational structures to inform later transformations [Mamrak et al 1987[Mamrak et al , 1989.…”

Autonomous authoring tools are routinely used to expedite the translation of large document collections into functioning hypertexts. They are also used to add hyperlinks to pre-existing hypertext structures. In this survey we describe a taxonomy of autonomous hypertext authoring tools. The classification of any given system is determined by the type and nature of the document analysis it performs.

“…The practical limits of the translation architecture make the ICA system only able to handle context-free grammars, and it is not possible to generate data converters automatically for languages with markups which are implicit or context-sensitive [19,15]. However, a hypertext grammar may have contextsensitive productions.…”

“…A somewhat more specialized pattern-matching program (based, for example, on attribute grammars rather than finite state machines) would require more effort to build, but would be able to process conforming documents with relatively little human intervention. (This was the approach used in the Chameleon document translation system) [14].…”

SUMMARYSGML and ODA are international standards for the markup and interchange of electronic documents. These standards are incompatible, in the sense that in general a document encoded using SGML cannot be used directly in an ODA-based system, and vice versa. We first describe these two standards, and suggest criteria under which a bridge between the two standards could be evaluated. We then evaluate the Office Document Language (ODL), an SGML application specifically designed for ODA documents, with respect to these criteria. We describe conditions under which reliable automatic translation between SGML and ODA can be achieved, and describe a translation program that converts SGML documents to ODA and back.
