As a part of this research, we have developed a software library, Storm
(STORage Module),
for storing and retrieving data as immutable byte sequences, which are
identified by cryptographic
content hashes. This allows for studying two important issues

Objectives of the research
--------------------------
-We investigate hyperstructure, flexible user interfaces and custom controllers
-together as a solution to the information flood from the net. A free software
-framework to base further research on gradually forms from our production
-quality subsystems.
-
-Our goals include:
-
- 1) Interactive hyperstructure: the user is able to connect any two
"data items"
- which will then be "near" each other in hyperspace, easily visible and
- accessible from one to the other.
-
- 3) Novel interfaces taking advantage of modern graphics capabilities
- as well as new types of controllers, all built from commodity parts
-
- 2) Teamwork: Ad hoc and non-centralized Peer-to-Peer version control of
- structured data. Two or more persons can form a small team to change an
object
- and subsequently submit those changes for consideration by a larger
- group. The software will manage all versioning.
