Theorists have proposed many changes to the familiar node-link view of hypertext, yet the methods for defining anchors have remained largely unchanged. The anchoring techniques seen in the majority of hypertext applications have a number of disadvantages which can limit the value of hypertext for complex applications. This paper introduces the idea of fuzzy anchors which use the idea of fuzzy set theory to refine the notion of hypertext anchors. This provides a more flexible and expressive way of defining anchors in hypertext systems, and offers additional benefits to the authors and users of hypertext applications. The discussion introduces the idea of adaptive anchors, and shows how fuzzy anchors can be used to respond to user interaction to provide a less static notion of hypertext.
