This document outlines the innovative concepts of Superimposed Information (SI) developed at Portland State University. Presenting a new interpretation of existing information, SI focuses on providing granular access to varied sources through annotations, bookmarks, and concept maps. The proposed SI framework enables users to navigate and manipulate information seamlessly, allowing for enhanced multimedia presentations. This proposal also introduces relevant tools like Sidepad and SIMPEL, emphasizing their roles in improving information access and presentation.

Superimposed Information By Uma Murthy and Edward Fox Source: NSF/NSDL project proposal # 0405396 CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
Outline for Today • Presentation • Introduction, basic concepts • Demonstrations CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
Background • SI concept and software developed by people at Portland State University, including • Lois M. Delcambre • David Maier • Sudarshan Murthy CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
What is Superimposed Information (SI)? • New interpretation of existing information • Comments, new structures • Focuses on • Information at sub-document granularity • Information from heterogeneous sources • Working with information insitu CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
SI Examples • Annotations • Bookmarks • Comments • Concept Maps • Concordances • Previews CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
Components of SI Architecture * Source: ICDE04 presentation by Murthy, et al. CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
What is a Mark? • An abstraction • Represents a selection of information inside a base layer • Includes address information • May be used to retrieve contextual information CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
SI and Hypertext • Marks may be considered as a deeper (higher/lower) level abstraction of hypertext. • Marks represented as URIs CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
Superimposed Applications • Sidepad • Concept mapping/note taking tool • SIMPEL • Multimedia presentation editor and player • Marks as URIs • Marks in HTML documents CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
SIMPEL: A SuperImposed Multimedia Presentation Editor and pLayer • Select and reference multimedia information (text, audio, video) at varying granularity • Create a presentation - arrange selections (references) in a time-synchronized manner • “Play” presentation CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
Demonstrations • Creating marks. • Using marks in an HTML document. • Using marks in a Sidepad document. • Creating and playing SIMPEL presentations. CS4624: Multimedia, Hypertext, and Information Access
