The subject of this article is Intermedia, one of the hypermedia systems. The article's authors were part of a team that developed Intermedia at Providence, Rhode Island-based Brown University's Institute for Research in Information and Scholarship (IRIS), between 1985 and 1990. Intermedia is distinct as it is intended to model a multiuser hypermedia framework. It presents the user with a graphical file system browser, a set of direct manipulation editors manipulation editors for text, graphics, timelines, animations, and videodisc data, a browser for link information, a set of linguistic tools and the ability to create and traverse links between any two selections in any document in the system. Information about selections called anchors and links between these selections is maintained in a database management system. The IRIS Hypermedia serves is comprised of three parts.
