Situated Multimodal Documents

—The choices made by user in processing a set of documents is related, in a broad sense, to the sum of influences coming from the documents in the user situation, which does not include only physical or technical context parameters, but also the user goal and a set of personal components related to the user goal and to the effect on the user of the document. We use the term situated document to denote such influence. In this paper we propose a model for situated documents and propose a functional architecture for their management.
