Organisations have invested considerable resources in developing intranets that attempt to capture aspects of �corporate knowledge�. When writing new documents, trying to find and reuse the intrinsic knowledge held in other documents amongst an ever-rising mountain of documentation, is at best impractical. The aim of this project is therefore, to produce a novel writing tool, which is underpinned by an enhanced knowledge structure and hypermedia design model. As a result we aim to help authors improve the coherence and consistency of documents they are creating by helping to assimilate key knowledge in each new document.
