Keyword-based search engines are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and yet navigating the ever-increasing collection of academic knowledge remains an arduous task. Keeping abreast of relevant scientific literature is often a fragmented process that breaks the workflow of academic writing.
Web archives preserve the fast changing Web, yet are highly incomplete due to crawling restrictions, crawling depth and frequency, or restrictive selection policies—most of the Web is unarchived and therefore lost to posterity. In this paper, we propose an approach to recover significant parts of the unarchived Web, by reconstructing descriptions of these pages based on links and anchors in the set...
Most information seeking and retrieval systems are designed for individual use, and prototype collaborative systems are too limited to support use in heterogeneous environments. Easy Access to Digital Libraries (ezDL) attempts to bridge this gap by integrating familiar information sharing and management functions with communication tools into a flexible, scalable network in which individuals and groups...
Research consistently indicates that professionals rely heavily on oral information. However, our understanding of orality as a mode to convey information remains limited. One approach to remedying this knowledge gap lies in exploring whether oral information may be approached in a manner consistent with approaches to non-oral information, specifically information in documents. This paper explores...
Business documents exchanged in a service-oriented context play a crucial role in the definition of service interfaces. Only if both partners have a common agreement on the data exchanged, automated business interactions are possible. The United Nations Center for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business (UN/CEFACT) provides a reliable and interoperable solution for conceptual business document...
Every modern portal ships with some form of internal document library portlet tools that can be used to enable groups to share files. Unfortunately, certain limitations - that the portlet can only view data managed directly by the portal and that document and data files are the only resource that can be browsed - make these tools less valuable in many real-world collaborations. This paper describes...
This article presents a concept model, and the associated tool to help advanced learners to find adapted bibliography. The purpose is the use of an IT representation as educational research software for newcomers in research. We use an ontology based on the ACM's Computing Classification System in order to find scientific articles directly related to the new researcher's domain without any formal...
Thesaurus alignments play an important role in realizing efficient access to heterogeneous cultural-heritage data. Current technology, however, provides only limited value for such access because it fails to bridge the gap between theoretical study and practical application requirements. This article explores common real-world library problems and identifies solutions that focus on the application-embedded...
This paper describes implementation of web-based hotel reservation system which enables users to book hotel rooms by means of a web browser. The system is based on JavaServer Faces technology in the presentation layer, Spring Framework in the service layer and iBatis library for the data access layer.
