Advantage of using Web 2.0 applications in class
(ACM, 2010)In this study the advantage of using Web 2.0 applications in terms of increasing student attention and enthusiasm will be emphasized by presenting the example of community service activities which were supported by the ... -
Architecture of a grid-enabled Web search engine
(Elsevier Ltd, 2007)Search Engine for South-East Europe (SE4SEE) is a socio-cultural search engine running on the grid infrastructure. It offers a personalized, on-demand, country-specific, category-based Web search facility. The main goal ... -
Automated web services composition with the event calculus
(Springer, 2007-10)As the web services proliferate and complicate it is becoming an overwhelming job to manually prepare the web service compositions which describe the communication and integration between web services. This paper analyzes ... -
An automatic approach to construct domain-specific web portals
(ACM, 2007-11)We describe the architecture of an automatic domain-specific Web portal construction system. The system has three major components: i) a focused crawler that collects the domain-specific pages on the Web, ii) an information ... -
Automatic performance evaluation of Web search engines
(Elsevier, 2004)Measuring the information retrieval effectiveness of World Wide Web search engines is costly because of human relevance judgments involved. However, both for business enterprises and people it is important to know the most ... -
Automatic Ranking of Retrieval Systems in Imperfect Environments
(ACM, 2003-07-08)The empirical investigation of the effectiveness of information retrieval (IR) systems requires a test collection, a set of query topics, and a set of relevance judgments made by human assessors for each query. Previous ... -
Detecting user types in object ranking decisions
(ACM, 2009-10)With the emergence of Web 2.0 applications, where information is not only shared across the internet, but also syndicated, evaluated, selected, recombined, edited, etc., quality emergence by collaborative effort from many ... -
E-museum: web-based tour and information system for museums
(IEEE, 2006)A web-based system - consisting of data entrance, access and retrieval modules - is constructed for museums. Internet users that visit the e-museum, are able to view the written and visual information belonging to the ... -
eBay in the economic literature: analysis of an auction marketplace
(Springer New York LLC, 2010)This survey brings together theoretical and empirical questions that have been addressed in the economic literature on eBay, focusing on understanding the behavior of buyers and sellers. We discuss several puzzles of bidder ... -
Energy-price-driven query processing in multi-center web search engines
(IEEE, 2011-07)Concurrently processing thousands of web queries, each with a response time under a fraction of a second, necessitates maintaining and operating massive data centers. For large-scale web search engines, this translates ... -
Evolution of web search results within years
(ACM, 2011-07)We provide a first large-scale analysis of the evolution of query results obtained from a real search engine at two distant points in time, namely, in 2007 and 2010, for a set of 630,000 real queries. -
Exploiting data mining techniques for broadcasting data in mobile computing environments
(IEEE, 2002)Mobile computers can be equipped with wireless communication devices that enable users to access data services from any location. In wireless communication, the server-to-client (downlink) communication bandwidth is much ... -
Exploiting query views for static index pruning in web search engines
(ACM, 2009-11)We propose incorporating query views in a number of static pruning strategies, namely term-centric, document-centric and access-based approaches. These query-view based strategies considerably outperform their counterparts ... -
Issues in the design and implementation of Web-based language courses
(Bilkent University, 2003)This study explored the factors that course designers have taken into account in the design and implementation of web-based courses, how the design and implementation of the web-based courses were effected, and course ... -
Metadata extraction from text in soccer domain
(IEEE, 2008-10)Event detection is a crucial part for soccer video searching and querying. The event detection could be done by video content itself or from a structured or semi structured text files gathered from sports web sites. In ... -
Metadata-based modeling of information resources on the web
(Wiley, 2004)This paper deals with the problem of modeling Web information resources using expert knowledge and personalized user information for improved Web searching capabilities. We propose a "Web information space" model, which ... -
A new approach to search result clustering and labeling
(Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2011)Search engines present query results as a long ordered list of web snippets divided into several pages. Post-processing of retrieval results for easier access of desired information is an important research problem. In ... -
Re-ranking of web image search results using a graph algorithm
(IEEE, 2008-12)We propose a method to improve the results of image search engines on the Internet to satisfy users who desire to see relevant images in the first few pages. The method re-ranks the results of text based systems by ... -
Recognizing faces in news photographs on the web
(IEEE, 2009-09)We propose a graph based method in order to recognize the faces that appear on the web using a small training set. First, relevant pictures of the desired people are collected by querying the name in a text based search ... -
