Using hypertext to facilitate information sharing in biomedical research groups

As part of an effort to create an integrated academic information management system, the authors are developing information technology to support the efforts of scientific work groups. Many of their ideas in this regard are embodied in a system called the virtual notebook, which is intended to facilitate information sharing and management in such groups. The authors discuss the foundations of that system--a hypertext system that they have developed using a relational database and the distributable interface that they have written in the X Window System.
