    Abstract
    Demonstrates that a mode of interaction, analogous to the optomechanical principles applied in the Peek-a-Boo system, can be applied in computerized retrieval systems to enhance the quality of human-computer interaction radically and increase effectiveness. The MenUSE (Menu based User Search Engine) software has evolved from constructing explicit Boolean combinations of concepts automatically to using an implicit Boolean searching approach, similar to Peek-a-Boo. Thesauri and classification schemes, together with other searchable values, provide the user with views of a database and a means for the recognition and selection of concepts and other parameters by the end user. The resulting filtering model has been implemented for searching the European Parliament's EPOQUE database and for INSPEC. This second application provides illustrations of the technique for this paper

    Abstract
    Presents EuroMenUSE, a PC-based front-end system developed to improve access to EPOQUE, the major document database of the European Parliament. EuroMenUSEe is an exemplar and the first commercial product to result from the application of the Multilingual MenUSE software shell; in this system it uses the EUROVOC thesaurus. This Common Query interface replaces the Common command Language and provides a more effectve way for end-users to access document databases

    Abstract
    The HIBROWSE design offers improved searching functionality for users of bibliographic databases. The interface provides a multi windowed view of data stored on a relational database management system, using layered attribute value aggregation and classification. The user interrogates the database by invoking automatically formulated SQL queries that filter the contents of each window according to user selected attribute values. The interface is described using 'hand crafted' screens to create realistic examples of HIBROWSE systems for EPOQUE, INSPEC, MEDLINE and EMBASE

    Abstract
    This paper describes the coming together of two independent programmes developing interfaces which improves access to databases. MenUSE - Menu-based User Search Engine - has been developed to search bibliographic databases whilst HIBROWSE - High Resolution Interface for Database Specific BROWsing and SEarching - is a front-end for searching information stored on structured relational database management systems. Combining the 2 approaches affords the user much greater access capabilities than is possible using traditional retrieval systems. The implications of this are explored in the context of EPOQUE (the European Parliament Online QUEry system) and INSPEC
