Cha-Ra Park, Taesoo Lim, Woo-Key Lee · 2007
Rich Internet Application(RIA) is one of the Web 2.0 technologies and is expected to be a next generation user interface technique which allows flexible and dynamic manipulation for Web searches. This paper addresses a personalization mechanism for advanced Web search using RIA for abundant user interactions. We devised a dynamic and graphical user interface instead of previous text-based searches and a client side application for storing personal preference information. In this research, we implemented the graphical personalized search manager using Yahoo web search API and widget, and demonstrated its effectiveness by performing some experiments with various query terms and representative predicates.
