The shark-search algorithm. An application: Tailored Web site mapping

This paper introduces the "shark search" algorithm, a refined version of one of the first dynamic Web search algorithms, the "fish search". The shark-search has been embodied into a dynamic Web site mapping that enables users to tailor Web maps to their interests. Preliminary experiments show significant improvements over the original fish-search algorithm. © 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
