Partitioning the Navigational Model: A Component-Driven Approach

Abstract. This paper proposes using a Component Approach to model navigation in a hypertext application. It proposes Navigational Semantic Units (NSUs), which are component-oriented units that describe some meaning of navigation user’s perspective. The NSUs are an abstraction of a navigational model and are the basis for a methodology to design hypermedia applications based on the Model View Controller Architecture.
