The CASCADE system is designed to support research on augmenting authoring,
editorial, and other document processes through agents using the information
available from structured electronic documents. Specifically, CASCADE
research is directed toward three goals :
- To reduce the cognitive overhead in the authoring of structured documents
by employing a variety of information streams, augmented processes and software
agents,
- To reduce the complexity of document management by using an SQL-compliant
DBMS as a repository for work group and document hypertext information based
upon structured document data.
- To assure document integrity and availability via database management of
critical document controls and information.
