An Information Retrieval System Based on Multiple Portlets
Glauber José Vaz, Jayme Garcia Arnal Barbedo · International Journal of Web Portals · 2021
Information retrieval systems built with a service-oriented architecture have numerous advantages, and portlets are a key technology to implement services which interact with each other in the presentation layer. This work presents an efficient approach for the communication between the components of an information retrieval system based on multiple portlets in a single user interface. It also presents the architecture and the main methods of the system implemented as a case of use for this approach. It is shown that the proposed solution yields the best inter-portlet communication mechanism in each situation, while possessing the ability to deliver aggregated search and superior user experience.
