ISiM Special Lecture Series (6) by Dr. Ed Cutrell- 8th May, 2009
by Angrosh 06 May '09

06 May '09

International School of Information Management University of Mysore Special Lecture (6) "Making a better Web Snippet" by Dr. Ed Cutrell Researcher Microsoft Research Redmond, USA Date and Time May 08, 2009: 3:30 PM Venue ISiM Lecture Hall-1 You are cordially invited --------------- Speaker Bio: Dr. Ed. Cutrell is currently a Research Scientist at Microsoft Research in the Adaptive Systems Interaction Focus Group. Cutrell is a cognitive psychologist with a strong background in cognitive neurosciences. In 2000 he joined the Adaptive Systems and Interaction group at Microsoft Research, working to improve the "impedance match" between humans and their technologies. His research consists of the exploration and measurement of human interaction with information technology. Over the years, he has been working on a broad range of HCI topics, ranging from input technologies to visual perception to brain-computer interfaces to intelligent notifications and disruptions. These days he is spending much of his time thinking about information interaction. Abstract of the Talk In this talk, Dr. Ed Cutrell will be describing the work his group has been doing on new ways to represent Web pages for search and re-finding. People regularly interact with a number of different representations of Web pages. A person looking for new information may initially find a Web page represented as a short snippet rendered by a search engine. When s/he wants to return to the same page the next day, the page may instead be represented by a link in his/her browser history. The research is based on asking a few questions: . What is it about Web pages that people actually remember when they want to return to a page? . What is important for finding new information? . How do people explore new or re-visited Web pages? A new compact representation of pages (called "visual snippets") that supports both the identification of new, relevant web pages and the re-finding of previously viewed pages is created and a study exploring how different representations are used in a variety of contexts is carried out. Next, eye-tracking technologies are used to understand how people visually interrogate Web pages. Then, this information is used to build a predictive model of "attentional salience" for Web pages. The research hopes to connect up these models of visual salience to build visual snippets that are informed by these models.

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Documentation Research and Training Centre 8TH Mile, Mysore Road Bangalore 560059 DRTC Colloquium (4) 2008-2010 The Importance of Open Access, Open Source, and Open Standards for Libraries Abstract Open access facilitates the availability and distribution of scholarly communication freely, as a means and effort to solve the problem of inaccessibility, primarily due to financial constraints, particularly in the developing countries. Studies suggest that the articles which are published in open access journals are more cited. In spite of all these, there are still many issues not completely resolved such as pricing models, peer reviewing, indexing, impact factor, archiving, and the stability of this new publishing model for scientific literature. The use of open standards can assure interoperability of diverse systems and long lasting preservation. This colloquium will discuss some important ways to achieve open access by exploiting open source software and open standards in creating institutional repositories. The colloquium will further discusses some light on major issues in achieving this. Facets Speaker Overview Ali Raza (Leader) Open access initiative Babar Raees Institutional Repository Binit Kiran Standards and Tools Shion Ghuha Open source software Nilesh Shewale Implications Priyanki Sinha Conclusions Tarun Kumar Venue: DRTC Classroom Date: 6th May 2009 Time: 2.00pm All are cordially invited (M.Krishnamurthy) Colloquium Coordinator -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Be Careful of such kind of Databases
by Pawan Agrawal 01 May '09

01 May '09

*Dear Professional regards,* Now as the trend going on. We all are looking for e-journal and e-databases for our library to improve our services to the user. But in this trend, there are many professional or i will call them as ill-minded people who are taking benefit of OPEN ACCESS journals to earn money. These people are selling their databases purely contained open access journals only. They collects open access jounals and other literature from the net and selling it to the libraries for higher cost. And We are paying for the content what is already free. So I Request you not to be trapped by such databases and enquire before subscribing such databases and their catagory whether these are subscription based journals or open access journals. So we can use that amount to provide better services to our users in stead vesting money for such kind of databases. -- Thanks and Regards Pawan R.
