Tsai, Bor-sheng – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1992
Discussion of the development of a knowledge navigation system to assist users in searching a large database in a local/wide-area network environment considers the construction of navigation maps, the use of DOS and Windows, connection with electronic mail, and parallel operation with other systems such as BITNET. (28 references) (MES)

Janes, Joseph W.; Rosenfeld, Louis B. – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1992
Examines historical and current difficulties in information retrieval, including the tendency of technology, because of the problems of scale and distribution, to make information invisible to users. Attempts to organize networked resources are described, and serendipity is proposed as a model for future retrieval. (two references) (MES)

Shepherd, Michael A.; Watters, Carolyn – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1992
Characterizes information retrieval systems in a network environment from a user's perspective along two axes: query and presentation. Several examples of early, current, and developing information retrieval systems are considered within this framework, and Daltext, a prototype system to support research on text-based retrieval systems, is…

Murray, Arthur J. – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1992
Discusses knowledge acquisition and dissemination in a network environment. Obstacles to the electronic exchange of knowledge and functional requirements for knowledge acquisition, dissemination, and management are summarized. A prototype intelligent Internet interface that mediates knowledge acquisition and dissemination and preliminary test…

Frost, Carolyn O.; Janes, Joseph – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1994
Describes plans for an investigation of gopher protocol use for browsing and searching for information available via the Internet. Use of classification schemes based on traditional library models will be compared to the use of an existing gopher. Research questions, literature on related issues, construction of the classification schemes, and the…

Larson, Ray R. – Proceedings of the ASIS Mid-Year Meeting, 1994
Describes collaboration between the University of California at Berkeley and four other universities to develop interoperable servers containing each participant's Computer Science Technical Reports and to make them available over the Internet using standard protocols. The proposed library architecture, approaches to indexing and retrieval, and…
