Recently: shift in interest; awareness: implementation-oriented approach would forever keep adaptive hypermedia away from the ‘layman’ author.

It is therefore necessary to research and establish the components of an adaptive hypermedia system from an authoring perspective, catering for the different author personas that are required.It is therefore necessary to research and establish the components of an adaptive hypermedia system from an authoring perspective, catering for the different author personas that are required. http://www.win.tue.nl/~acristea/A3H/
