“…Since the widespread of information over the web, in particular XML-based data, researchers have been working on controlling and managing this data such as in [3][4][5]. In particular, regarding XML data, two main approaches have emerged aiming at providing non-expert programmers with tools allowing them to define their own control or manipulation operators for XML data: Mashups and XML-oriented visual languages.…”

“…In the WIL approach, e-documents are assumed to be presented with their components, called Information Objects (IOs), organized in such a way as to provide suggestions about the document's semantics [3]. The retrieval activity is therefore performed by letting users indicate the IOs of the documents they are interested in, their relationships and their spatial location.…”

“…Towards this objective, this paper proposes the methodology and the architecture of the Web Indexing Language (WIL) system for editing, annotating, indexing and retrieving e-documents. This approach starts from the Human Computer Interaction (HCI) model developed in [2] and capitalizes on the description of the logical structure of a document as presented in [3].…”

Complex organizations need to manage a large amount of information that their employees produce and use in the form of documents: therefore, information systems are adopted to access these documents in electronic format (e-documents) through Intranet or Internet. These documents are composed, organized and annotated in different ways according to the rules adopted by specific professional communities. Such rules reflect the different and peculiar culture and skills of the communities producing them. The large amount of information available today can be potentially accessed in real time. This has increased the need for syntactic and semantic characterization of documents and for tools that allow their effective access and exploitation on the Net, their easy retrieval and management, their annotation to adapt and personalize them on the base of users' characteristics and diversities. This paper describes the approach adopted for the Web Indexing Language (WIL) system, a system conceived for supporting users interactivity during editing, indexing, and annotating e-documents on the basis of conventions adopted for their production and distribution. In particular, the approach capitalizes on the notion that the document layout reflects the relationships among the different semantic components of the document. The model and the architecture of the WIL system aim at improving e-document indexing, searching, editing and annotating, and at exploiting the description of the logical structure of the document itself to squeeze the information about the document content which are usually grasped by a reader at a glance.

Retrieval and content management are assumed to be mutually exclusive. In this paper we suggest that they need not be so. In the usual information retrieval scenario, some information about queries leading to a website (due to 'hits' or 'visits') is available to the server administrator of the concerned website. This information can used to better present the content on the website. Further, we suggest that some more information can be shared by the retrieval system with the content provider. This will enable the content provider (any website) to have a more dynamic presentation of the content that is in tune with the query trends, without violating the privacy of the querying user. The result will be a better synchronization between retrieval systems and content providers, with the purpose of improving the user's web search experience. This will also give the content provider a say in this process, given that the content provider is the one who knows much more about the content than the retrieval system. It also means that the content presentation may change in response to a query. In the end, the user will be able to find the relevant content more easily and quickly.
