چکیده
The support of effective interaction of the user with the other components of the system is a central problem for information retrieval. In this paper, we present a theory of such interactions taking place within a space of information-seeking strategies, and discuss how such a concept can be used to design for effective interaction. In particular, we propose a model of information retrieval system design based on the ideas of: a multi-dimensional space of information-seeking strategies; dialogue structures for information seeking; cases of specific information-seeking dialogues; and, scripts as distinguished prototypical cases. We demonstrate the use of this model by discussing in some detail the MERIT system, a prototype information retrieval system which incorporates these design principles. 4 Belkin, Cool, Stein, Thiel Cases, Scripts, and Information-Seeking Strategies

The successful use of hypermedia systems is often impeded by user disorientation or cognitive overhead caused by the non-linear arrangement of hypertext nodes. In this paper, we address the related problem how a user can be supported in his/her construction of coherence during the navigation through a hyperdocument. Instead of leaving this task to the hypertext author or designer alone, we prop...

Groupware applications used in distributed office environments are characterized by several users accessing and manipulating a shared document pool in a collaborative context. Supporting such application with relational database persistence and object technology requires two main features: (1) a sound and generic mapping from the object-oriented application schema to the relational data model, ...
