摘要:Over the past 10 years we have been carrying out a series of experiments in rich-prospect browsing, where some meaningful representation of every item in a collection is combined with tools for manipulating the display [1]. Example projects include the Mandala Browser for the visual construction of complex Boolean queries of XML documents [2], the Texttiles browser for visual grouping of items in RSS feeds and the structured surfaces interfaces for the Just in Time Research (JiTR) project [3]. What these interfaces each provide is an environment for people to explore digital materials where some combination of grouping and searching supports both information access and information exploration.
