New interfaces to access the structured pieces of information

 

The next generation of Web navigators will take into account XLink (Xml Linking Language). The hypertext links become intelligent.

 

Whereas the html tags only describe how the page must graphically enter into the Web navigator, xml makes it possible to qualify the content in a page. Xlink, developed by the W3C consortium, makes evolve the notion of hypertext link invented with the Web. Links can become bidirectional, can be organized in family and can contain a definition. All pieces of information related to links so qualified are saved out of the pages containing these links. An information research becomes possible through the definition of millions of links, with no need to access the pages themselves. The fuzzy interfaces allow the users to easily manipulate this structured information.
