Research Topic: Automatic bookmarks as personalized folders

With the development of Internet/Web Technology, the volume of web documents increases dramatically. Effective management of the documents is becoming an important issue. Information subscribers need to access information of interest more efficiently. Popular search Engines like Google retrieve documents upon users 's search queries but do not organize the search results. As a consequence, the Internet search tools are used mainly for gathering purpose only. Users need to manage their own bookmarks according to their needs and preferences. This can be time consuming especially if the information needs to be updated frequently.

This project is aimed at building a system that gathers, organizes tracks and disseminates online information. The system will help, the user to build information folders by gathering and organizing on-line information according to his or her needs and preferences. Using Web page clustering techniques, a user can personalize his/her folders in terms of the content and information structure. The personalized folders can be constantly updated by tracking relevant information and new information can be organized into appropriate folders automatically.
