Supporting user-specific views via multidimensional trees

Hartmut Obendorf, Sven Bertel, Kai‐Florian Richter · 2001

Large sets of information need to be structured in order to be usable. Users often build hierarchical representations of information that are both user- and task-specific. Traditional structuring techniques used in information systems often fail to support these hierarchies. We try to support the use of individual concepts of the information space with a general structure. We also try to minimize the number of forced decisions in the user's decision tree.
