Graph-based models for Visualisation and Interaction with the WWW

Funding and Staffing Details

This project was originally funded by King's College Research Strategy Funds. Alex Poulovassilis was the Principal Investigator and Petros Demetriades the PhD student working on the project.

Project Outline and Aims

This project is developing new techniques to aid presentation, navigation, querying and update of the WWW. Our techniques aim to work alongside traditional browsers and search engines but to extend their functionality in various ways, including:

maintaining local databases about WWW pages of interest
allowing new semantic links to be generated in these databases, thus creating user "views" of the WWW
providing visual querying and update facilities for these views
visualising the browsing history also as a graph.
