Abstract
Prestructuring disparate content data types prior to receiving any access requests to provide fast retrieval, assembly, and delivery of content data. Source content data are obtained from a source data structure that is readily created and editable by an author who does not have programming skills. The source content data are transformed into a predefined output structure that enables efficient access to the content data over a network. Predefined classes and entities of metadata indicate subsets of the content data that are deliverable and indicate relationships between elements of the content data. The content data and controlling metadata are preformatted for display and stored in fields of the output structure. The content data are also cross referenced by a plurality of categories within various areas of interest to create a hierarchical structure of interrelationships that is stored in the output structure, enabling a user to browse through related content data.
