Judith Winter’s Summary
Current Research:
XML has become a widely accepted standard for modeling, storing, and exchanging structured documents. Taking advantage of the document structure can result in improving the retrieval performance of XML-documents notably. A growing number of these documents are stored in Peer-to-Peer networks, which are promising self-organizing infrastructures. Documents are distributed over the Peer-to-Peer network by either being stored locally on individual peers or by being assigned to collections such as Digital Libraries. Current XML search engines for P2P-networks lack the use of such methods.
My work aims for the development of a search engine for XML-documents, where Information Retrieval methods are enhanced by using structural information.
