چکیده

We study the problem of navigating through a database of similar objects using comparisons under heterogeneous demand, a problem closely related to small-world network design. We show that, under heterogeneous demand, the small-world network design problem is NPhard. Given the above negative result, we propose a novel mechanism for small-world network design and provide an upper bound on its performance under heterogeneous demand. The above mechanism has a natural equivalent in the context of content search through comparisons, again under heterogeneous demand; we use this to establish both upper and lower bounds on content search through comparisons.

Recommendation for an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Based on Ontological Models

This paper presents a system of recommendations for an enterprise content manager (ECM) based on ontological models. In many occasions the results of a search are not accurate enough, so the user of the ECM system must check them and discard those not related to the search. In order to make recommendations, a proposal where it is necessary to review the instances of the ontological model is pre...
