This proposal, which we are calling “Articulated System to Analyse Cybermedia” (ASAC) consists of a set of concepts presented through specific terminology, and of a group of articulated elements allowing to determine what we call the what (parameters) and how (indicators) of any future study regarding cybermedia. Thus, we obtain an operative analysis protocol as a deliverable. In between, we characterize the typical context of the sort of studies that constitute the context for our proposal.
