Personal Information Management, Personal Information Retrieval? (2008)

Michael Bernstein, Max Van Kleek, David R. Karger

Traditional information retrieval has focused on the task of finding information or documents in a largely unknown space such as the Web or a library collection. In this paper we propose that the...

Simplifying knowledge creation and access for end-users on the SW (2008)

Van Kleek, Max, Bernstein, Michael, André, Paul, Perttunen, Mikko, Karger, David, Schraefel, Mc

In this position paper, we argue that improved mechanisms for knowledge acquisition and access on the semantic web (SW) will be necessary before it will be adopted widely by end-users. In particular,...
