  • Publication number: 20100306307
    Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for social bookmarking and tagging documents is provided. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method comprises receiving a new document in a tagging server having a storage unit with stored tags associated with a preexisting document and comparing the new document with the tags using a processor to find matching instances between parts of the new document and the tags. Each matching instance in the new document is marked with tag information. The marked up new document is delivered for display on a display unit.

  • Publication number: 20060129538
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for electronic Information Retrieval (IR) applied for an electronic search in a search environment. At indexing time, a searched document is mapped to at least one element of an organizational structure of an enterprise associated with the search environment. At query time, a querying user is associated with at least one element of the organizational structure of the enterprise. The organizational information of the searched document and that of the querying user are compared. A higher rank is provided to the searched document when the searched document has a closer organizational relation to the querying user compared to other searched documents with a less close relation to the querying user based on the compared organizational information.

  • Publication number: 20040243556
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system architecture, components and a searching technique for an Unstructured Information Management System (UIMS). The UIMS may be provided as middleware for the effective management and interchange of unstructured information over a wide array of information sources. The architecture generally includes a search engine, data storage, analysis engines containing pipelined document annotators and various adapters. The searching technique makes use of a two-level searching technique. A data structure includes an application program interface specifying a type system, an index repository and workflow composition. The type system specifies inheritance relationships between elements and attribute and features of the elements, and functions to specify constraints on an execution sequence of the document annotators. The index repository records results of processing of the document annotators.
