Abstract: In this paper we describe the proposed framework for representation and presentation of evolving information. As an example we use administrative information about an educational module. Evolution is expressed by a set of scenarios and is used for adaptive presentation of information represented as hypermedia. Representation of meta-information is based on the XML (eXtensible Markup Language). We experimented with the proposed approach and implemented a software prototype, which enables the time view and the user view of the educational module information. All presented data are stored in the database. Each element has associated constraints at the level of presentation, intended group of readers and presentation time.
