Abstract: The daunting task of designing hypermedia applications for multi-channel access by heterogeneous devices has been the target of great attention by the academia and the practitioners community. The plethora of client platforms poses many challenges, due to the diversity of the available capabilities and restrictions of these platforms. This paper presents an attempt for designing a conceptual model for hypermedia applications that allows for easy update and alteration of its content as well as its presentation and also allows for deployment in various mobile platforms.

Keywords: hypertext; hypermedia; hypermedia architectures; hypermedia models; multi-channel access to hypermedia; mobile internet; wireless World Wide Web; mobile communications; mobile computing.
