Peer reviewedCraven, Timothy C. – Information Processing and Management, 1980
Proposes a single underlying structure for the production of a variety of computer index displays, using a networking system which represents both concepts and links by nodes. Desirable characteristics of index displays are outlined, and algorithmic extraction of subnetworks for local use is discussed. References are included. (Author/BK)

Adaptive Man-Machine Interaction in Information Retrieval; A Dissertation in Electrical Engineering.
Edwards, John S. – 1967
Three specific contributions to the field of information retrieval are presented. The first two describe the establishment of an adaptive, interactive man-machine dialogue that produces a form of unsolicited librarian-like assistance for the user in his selection of index terms to characterize an indexing function. The data set upon which the…
