| Abstract | The "Information Superhighway" (Internet) enables a computer user to be connected to virtually endless numbers of sites on the network. Massive amount of information (such as news, stock price quotes) is being pumped into the superhighway at a great rate around the clock. Octopus, CHAT, and SIFT are three prototypes being developed at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) for effective information retrieval over the World Wide Web. Based on keywords (Chinese and English) supplied by users, these systems automatically retrieve relevant and up-to-date documents located around the world. |
