Synchronization control in hypermedia applications is one of the most important requirements in the presentation of these applications. To assure highquality presentations, it is necessary to know when events, produced during an application execution, occur in time. By means of this information, it is possible to predict undesirable delays and to forestall actions needed to avoid presentation adjustments. This thesis discusses how event occurrences can be predicted in the course of an application presentation. In order to assist this goal, a temporal graph, built up from the application specification, is proposed. This graph, called Hypermedia Temporal Graph - HTG, can be used in the temporal control of hypermedia applications, from the media transport system up to their presentation at client sides. Besides the quality of service control, this thesis elucidates other advantages that come from the synchronization management. Among them is allowing for presentations to be started at any moment in time of their life cycle, and allowing for presentations to be moved backward and forward up to a desirable presentation moment in time. Another advantage, also dealt with in this thesis, is the support to distributing parts of an application to different devices in charge of their presentations, without causing any hazard to the whole application temporal synchronism. Finally, this thesis also proposes how editions can be made over the HTG, and, therefore, how application control can be modified during runtime.
