Abstract :
Recent developments within the World Wide Web (WWW) and attendant user interfaces (e.g. Mosaic, Netscape) have produced well defined protocols for describing, communicating, and viewing hypertext information. This ability to uniformly handle different types of information has created tremendous opportunities for re-engineering the means by which disparate information is managed and communicated among individuals and organizations. In the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology, this technology is being used as the building block for integrating administrative, instructional, and research services. The paper describes some of our experiences as well lessons that we have learned while migrating our services to this technology
