A Just-In-Time Information Retrieval Agent that Provides Context Aware Support of Text Creation

Abstract

Finding relevant resources and supplemental information that support the process of text creation is time consuming and often distracting for the author. With the increase of digitally stored information, accessing diverse information resources is easier but at the same time it gets harder and harder to find the relevant information giving you full view on the subject you write or read about. We propose a solution for getting the needed contextual view over the relevant accessible resources - an autonomous just-in-time information retrieval agent for automatic context information finding. The agent extracts keywords, searches and suggests relevant resources. Having the process of gathering relevant information automated greatly improves the user’s productivity and saves up her/his time.
