We describe a new approach to information retrieval: algorithmic mediation for intentional, synchronous collaborative exploratory search. Using our system, two or more users with ...

The probability that a term appears in relevant documents ( ) is a fundamental quantity in several probabilistic retrieval models, however it is difficult to estimate without rele...
Abstract. We propose an interaction technique called “gripping” to improve the operation of input with pen-based interfaces. This operation involves a strong grip when holding ...
We describe efficient techniques for construction of large term co-occurrence graphs, and investigate an application to the discovery of numerous fine-grained (specific) topics. A...
Although there is tremendous interest in designing improved networks for data centers, very little is known about the network-level traffic characteristics of current data centers...
