Context perception in video-based hypermedia spaces

ABSTRACT

Multimedia hypertext has grown from the basic addition of dynamic media only at "leaf" nodes of the hypertext, to higher structured attempts to compose and integrate the different media. One of the core problems in this evolution has been, and still is, the construction and perception of context, making explicit which part of a presentation is relevant when media elements are integrated. The search for contextualized integration of video material with other sources of information has emerged from the work in several domains and from mutually reinforcing needs. The work presented here is centered on this problem: how to provide the perception of context to users or readers, when navigating through a space of heterogeneous media elements, where video plays an important role.

            When processing data obtained from a survey, one must consider both the entered data and the survey itself. The interpretation of the results can be improved by examining the process used when filling out the survey. This paper reports on an experiment using a Web-based survey, with JavaScript programs running while the survey was being filled out. These programs collected paradata: information about the process used in filling in the survey itself. This paradata, which can be anything a JavaScript program is capable of processing, can be sent to the server along with the data from the actual survey. The experiment collected paradata on the response times and changes made to items within the survey. This allowed the authors to verify results from an earlier, non-Web based survey. The techniques illustrated in this paper do not require a great deal of computing expertise, but would probably be somewhat beyond the skill level of a beginning programmer. The paper represents new possibilities for social scientists who wish to easily gather data using a broad base of respondents. Using a Web-based form is an obvious answer to this, and using JavaScript to gather paradata adds a useful tool. This paper is interesting, and the computing details are kept to a relatively simple level, and should therefore be accessible to most social scientists. Online Computing Reviews Service
