Part 2: Recollections (10 of 12)
Like any self-respecting hypermedia researcher receiving a
challenge like that, I ran away. In fact, I left the country. But of
course, there is no escape. There on the other side of the ocean in a
city called Aarhus, Kaj
Grønbæk and his colleagues
were running
into the same problem. This time we agreed to take it up as a central
driving design goal (as were the Microcosm folks at
Southampton
among others). Kaj's studies of engineering work at Great Belt had
shown an overriding need for linking across diverse third-party
applications as well as a need for support for multiple
platforms.[11] Integration agendas were
the order of the day. We
chose Dexter as the basis of our framework,[12] but that's another
story.
