Theme
Submissions are sought for a special edition for the Hypermedia
Systems theme of JoDI on Spatial Hypermedia.
Spatial hypertext emerged due to the limitations of expression and
communication of relationships between documents via explicit links.
Since then, numerous spatial hypertext systems, applications, and
analyses have been presented in the four workshops on spatial hypertext
and in the spatial hypertext track at ACM Hypertext Conferences.
This special issue will bring together papers on spatial hypertext
theories, design, systems, applications, and experiences.
Expected topics include:
- Spatial hypertext systems
- User experience with spatial hypertext
- Spatial hypertext applications
- Collaboration and spatial hypertext
- Multimedia in spatial hypertext
- Adaptive spatial hypertext
- Integrating spatial hypertext with other hypertext frameworks and other software environments generally.
- Communication and expression in spatial hypertext
- Rhetoric issues posed by spatial hypertext
Submission
Authors should submit their papers electronically using the submission form.

Before submitting please take note of the journal's Guidelines
for submission: notes for authors.
There is no fixed length for submissions, but papers should be
self-contained. Authors are encouraged to leverage the online nature of
JoDI in developing submissions that optimally illustrate the issues
raised in
papers. Authors who wish to submit a paper with unusual features are
requested to contact the Special issue Editors prior to submission.
All submissions will be subject to peer review. Authors of
accepted papers will be notified in July, 2005 and they will then be

final version of the paper by 5th August, 2005.
