Abstract: Flexibility, adaptability, modularity, and extensibility in the context of a collaborative system are critical features for multi-user hypertext systems. In addition to facilitating acceptance and increasing reusability, these features simplify development cycles and enable a larger range of application areas. However, especially in virtual 3D hypertext systems, many of the features are only partially available or not available at all. To fill this gap, we present an approach to virtual hypertext systems for the realization of dynamic event systems. Such an event system can be created and serialized simultaneously at run time regarding the modification of situational, environmental parameters. This includes informing users and allowing them to participate in the environmental dynamics of the system. We present Va.Si.Li-ES as a module of Va.Si.Li-Lab, describe several environmental scenarios that can be adapted, and provide use cases in the context of 3D hypertext systems.
