Difficulties with navigation are common in hypertext documents. Many studies have examined techniques and design strategies to find the proper structure of a hyperdocument whereas others have investigated navigational tools such as overview diagrams, maps, menus, and/or tables of contents that help users navigate through complex hyperdocuments. This study has investigated the effects of table of contents and frames as user interface on user performance and user satisfaction. The result suggests several guidelines for designing complex hypertext information retrieval systems and creating on-line documentation.

Abstract The Centre de Données astronomiques de Strasbourg (CDS) has dealt with bibliographic information for many years. References of publications, published observational data related to objects, data tables, nomenclature, have been homogenized and organized into information retrieval systems: SIMBAD, the reference database for the identification and bibliography of astronomical objects; the catalogue service and the VizieR catalogue Browser, for data tables; the Dictionary of Nomenclature of Astronomical objects, which is now maintained by the CDS. Evolution in recent years has brought the Data Centers closer to the publishing process. General standards for astronomy, for the description of references and of data tables, have been proposed and implemented. Data tables from papers are now directly published in electronic form, and distributed on-line by the Data Centers. The emergence of fully electronic publication paves the way to innovative new services, linking the journals to other sources of informations (data bases, tables, then images, data archives), and making use of new methods for information retrieval. This also has an effect on the publishing process, with the possibility to implement new checks and links from text to other kinds of information (from objects names, positions, etc.). The CDS will bring some of thekey features in the evolution towards a fully linked astronomy information system, in close collaboration with the journal editors, the ADS, the other Data Centers, and the data providers.
