Abstract :
A design for a hypertext system that manages software documentation for maintenance purposes is presented. A brief overview of hypertext is given, followed by a model of a software maintenance documentation system based on the hypertext concept. This is accomplished in three steps: the software process is reviewed, the essential information required for maintenance is identified, and the data model is described. Experience with this documentation model in a nonhypertext implementation is examined
