    Abstract
    The WilsonDisc user interface for CD-ROM searching was evaluated using heuristic evaluation and observation of experienced users and used 2 Wilson Disc databases: MLA International Bibliography and Humanities Index. The heuristic evaluations identified 51 different problems, while observations found only 8. However, the major problem encountered by users: changing of the databases, was not found through heuristic evaluation. Suggests that expert evaluators explicitely consider the user interface environment, the context in which users elect to use the system

    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

    Abstract
    Examines the growing and diverse full text CD-ROM marketplace. Attempts to discover the extent of fragmentation within this marketplace. Discusses the conflict between the design of such CD-ROMs for end user searching and the proliferation and diversification of retrieval software which bring into question the ease of use of CD-ROMs. identifies areas of expansion in this marketplace, including the home and schools' markets and specific subject areas, e.g. law, business and commerce and news information. Suggests that it will be interesting to see which search interface survive as the markets develops

    Abstract
    Users uf multiple CD-ROM databases face variations between interfaces which causes libraries to spend a great deal of wasted time in installation, training, creation of documentation, and user assistance. Presents guidelines identifying 13 basic functions that every CD-ROM interface, whether command driven or graphical, should have

    Abstract
    The study assessed the ability of children to categorise concepts that will be used to organise an information retrieval interface. The work was done of Project SEED (Science for Early Educational Development), a project to develop hands-on science programmes for elementary schools. Aims to tailor an interface to the particular skills of children in organising science knowledge. The results are promising for the design of IR interfaces based on children's abilities to manipulate information.

    Abstract
    Librarians find themselves today in a lively period of the evolution of user interfaces to online information. Most of the newer interfaces incorporate graphics, colour and mouse-supported searching to make intiation for the novics user easier and all searching more productive. Describes the University of Delaware's development of DELCAT MacPAC, a HyperCard-based front-end to the university's OPAC, adapted from Cornell University's MacPAC. The focus is on Delaware's customisation of MacPAC for its environment, including the support of remote users, and the testing, use, and distribution of the product

    Abstract
    Browse searching of online catalogs and electronic indexes is a popular means of retrieving information, but some subject heading lists are so extensive that browsing them can be difficult and time-consuming. This resaerch tested one way of presenting a browse interface to reduce the amount of scanning of subject headings required. It found that a hierarchical presentation of headings reduced the amount of scanning required by more than 50% without any reduction in the effectiveness of the search. Better browsable displays of this sort can improve the efficiency of searching but appear not to alter effectivenenss

    Abstract
    The presence of different interfaces to use online catalogues has caused difficulties, particularly for remote users. To tackle this problem 13 university campuses in New South Wales linked their online catalogues together to form a network called LIBLINK (a subnet of the Australian Academic Research Network, AARNET). The key to the success of the network is the user searching software, PINS (Practical Interface to Network System), a set of fourth generation language software tools. Suggests that LIBLINK can be a simple solution for other libraries around the world

    Abstract
    Proposes a model for integrating hypermedia and expert systems and describes an implementation. The proposed model consists of an expert system with a hypermedia user interface module and hypermedia output explanation module. Describes implementation based on the proposed model, and expert system named the Tourist Hyper-Expert Consultant (THECO). The results showed that the proposed model and structure, which employ hypermedia features, can enhance the user interface and output explanation modules of expert systems. Incorporating hypermedia into the user interface module enhances the flexibility of the expert system application in acquiring inputs from the users. Hypermedia also improved the ability of the output explanation module to give more comprehensive recommendations

    Abstract
    We describe a prototype Information Retrieval system; SENTINEL, under development at Harris Corporation's Information Systems Division. SENTINEL is a fusion of multiple information retrieval technologies, integrating n-grams, a vector space model, and a neural network training rule. One of the primary advantages of SENTINEL is its 3-dimensional visualization capability that is based fully upon the mathematical representation of information with SENTINEL. The 3-dimensional visualization capability provides users with an intuitive understanding, with relevance/query refinement techniques athat can be better utilized, resulting in higher retrieval precision

    Abstract
    Science mapping is discussed in the general context of information visualization. Attempts to construct maps of science using citation data are reviewed, focusing on the use of co-citation clusters. New work is reported on a dataset of about 36.000 documents using simplified methods for ordination, and nesting maps hierarchically. an overall map of the dataset shows the multidisciplinary breadth of the document sample, and submaps allow drilling down the document level. An effort to visualize these data using advanced virtual reality software is described, and the creation of document pathways through the map is seen as a realization of Bush's associative trails

    Abstract
    Proposes a method of organizing documents based on the concepts of aggregation and hierarchies and a graphical user interface to provide a more intuitive form of Boolean query. The design is based on mapping the nodes of the aggregation hierarchy to Boolean intersection operations, mapping the nodes of the generalization hierarchy Boolean intersection operations (?), and providing a concrete, graphical, manipulable representation of both these node types. A working prototype interface was constructed and evaluated experimentally using 16 subjects against a classical command-line Boolean query interface. The graphical interface produced less than one-tenth of the errors of the textual interface, on average. Significant differences in time spent specifying queries were not found. Makes observations and comments to provide guidance for designers

    Abstract
    This study explores an image-based retrieval interface for drug information, focusing on usability for a specific population - seniors. Qualitative, task-based interviews examined participants' health information behaviors and documented search strategies using an existing database (www.drugs.com) and a new prototype that uses similarity-based clustering of pill images for retrieval. Twelve participants (aged 65 and older), reflecting a diversity of backgrounds and experience with Web-based resources, located pill information using the interfaces and discussed navigational and other search preferences. Findings point to design features (e.g., image enlargement) that meet seniors' needs in the context of other health-related information-seeking strategies (e.g., contacting pharmacists).

    Abstract
    The recent explosion of the Internet and the WWW has made digital libraries popular. Easy access to a digital library is provided by commercially available Web browsers, which provide a user-friendly interface. To retrieve documents of interest, the user is provided with a search interface that may only consist of one input field and one push button. Most users type in a single keyword, click the button, and hope for the best. The result of a query using this kind of search interface can consist of a large unordered set of documents, or a ranked list of documents based on the freuqency of the keywords. Both lists can contain articles unrelated to the user's inquiry unless a sophisticated search was performed and the user knows exactly what to look for. More sophisticated algorithms for ranking the search results according to how well they meet the users needs as expressed in the search input may help. However, what is desperately needed are software tools that can analyze the search result and manipulate large hierarchies of data graphically. In this article we describe the design of a language-independent document classification systems being developed to help users of the Florida Center for Library Automation analyze search query results. Easy access through the Web is provided, as well as a graphical user interface to display the classification results. We also describe the use of this system to retrieve and analyze sets of documents from public Web sites

    Abstract
    Assesses the appropriateness of graphic user interfaces (GUI), and more specifically the Windows based interfaces used for CD-ROM database applications. An evaluation model was devised to carry out an expert evaluation of the interfaces of 7 CD-ROM databases: Economist on CD-ROM; ADMYTE (Digital Archive of Spanish Texts and Manuscripts); English Poetry (Chadwyck-Healey); Oxford English Dictionary 2nd ed. on CD-ROM; Perinorm; OVID Medline and WinSPIRS Medline. The model identified 2 levels of interaction, the dialogue level aand the task level, and focused on general interface features, search and retrieval tasks, and output and processing options as well as the help facilities. Results are discussed in the light of HCI Usability Criteria and design guidelines (including general interface design guidelines, specific Windows design guidelines and the CD-ROM Consistent Interface Guidelines) to assess to what extent the applications comply and appropriate recommendations make

    Abstract
    This paper discusses constraints in knowledge organisation for information retrieval introduced by the difficulty of separating logical views of data, information, concepts and their relationships, from the physical means by which we seek to implement retrieval systems. A parallel is drawn between the move from enumerated to faceted classification and the emergence of relational database management systems to replace those adopting a hierarchical structure. This parallel suggests a convergence of ideas which have been, to a large extent, developed independently. The role of post-coordinated retrieval systems and thesauri is then examined before an interface design (HIBROWSE - a High resolution Interface for BROWsing and SEarching databases), is described which brings together the principles of faceted classification and increases the bandwidth of interaction through view-based searching.

    Abstract
    Clustering is an effective way of organizing documents into collections for ease of browsing. Recently with the growth of WWW, clustering has become a paradigm for organizing search results. Online systems face many new challenges, including the need for fast response time, generating high quality clusters with simple descriptions for novice users, and working with document distributions that violates many traditional assumptions. How do different clustering algorithms trade off quality of clusters and speed? What modifications are necessary to adapt traditional clustering algorithm to the WWW? How do these system scale to larger document collection? How do these systems evaluate the quality of the cluster they generate? How are the clusters generated in each case, and are there any processing after cluster generation to improve on the cluster quality?

    Abstract
    This paper reports the results of a study that investigated Arabic-speaking children's interaction with the International Children's Digital Library (ICDL) to find Arabic books on four tasks. Children's information seeking activities was captured by using HyperCam software. Children's success was assessed based on a measure the researchers developed. Children's perceptions of and affective experience in using the ICDL was gathered through group interviews. Findings revealed that children's information seeking behavior was characterized by browsing using a single function; that is, looking under "Arabic" from the Simple interface pull-down menu. Children were more successful on the fully self-generated, open-ended task than on the assigned and semi-assigned tasks. Children made suggestions for improving the Arabic collection and the design of the ICDL. The findings have implications for practitioners, researchers, and system designers.
