“…For instance, we can use it to link to not only one, but multiple documents, or to link to a set of Document objects and have the link know which object comes next and which object was the previous in a set, or build a link to be able to search for more recent resources, or set up an abstract series of paths that a link could follow depending on a user's context. Further exploration of the implementation of XLink technology will be taken in the next stage of this research, which will concentrate on virtual document assembly [44] .…”

Engineers often need to look for the right pieces of information by sifting through long engineering documents. It is a very tiring and time-consuming job. To address this issue, researchers are increasingly devoting their attention to new ways to help information users, including engineers, to access and retrieve document content. The research reported in this paper explores how to use the key technologies of document decomposition (study of document structure), document mark-up (with EXtensible Markup Language (XML), HyperText Mark-up Language (HTML), and Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)), and a facetted classification mechanism. Document content extraction is implemented via computer programming (with Java). An Engineering Document Content Management System (EDCMS) developed in this research demonstrates that as information providers we can make document content in a more accessible manner for information users including engineers.The main features of the EDCMS system are: 1) EDCMS is a system that enables users, especially engineers, to access and retrieve information at content rather than document level. In other words, it provides the right pieces of information that answer specific questions so that engineers don't need to waste time sifting through the whole document to obtain the required piece of information.2) Users can use the EDCMS via both the data and metadata of a document to access engineering document content.3) Users can use the EDCMS to access and retrieve content objects, i.e. text, images and graphics (including engineering drawings) via multiple views and at different granularities based on decomposition schemes.Experiments with the EDCMS have been conducted on semi-structured documents, a textbook of CADCAM, and a set of project posters in the Engineering Design domain. Experimental results show that the system provides information users with a powerful solution to access document content.

“…The result is a multilingual ER containing a pivot core (each concept is identified by a unique identifier and denoted by a specific term in each language). Our concept alignment algorithm [19] [20] is based on the similarity of concept descriptions (both structural and linguistic) and the similarity of the documents associated to the concepts (definition, description, examples, etc. )…”

Abstract-We present a precise search engine adapted to professional environments which are characterized by a domain (e.g. medicine, law, sport, and so on). In our approach, each domain has its own terminology (i.e. a set of terms that denote its concepts: team, player, etc.) and it is organized along dimensions, such as person, location, etc. The dimensions, as described below, are made of concepts and semantic relationships that represent a particular perspective or point of view on the domain. We mainly use the notion of domain dimension to: i) precisely index document content, and ii) develop an interactive interface which allows the user to precisely describe his or her information need and therefore precisely access the document collection.Index Terms-Information retrieval, domain dimensions, user interface.
