Abstract. Intelligent filtering of multimedia documents such as World Wide Web (WWW) pages is an extremely difficult task to automate. However, the determination of a page's relevance to one's interests is a skill that comes with ease to most humans. This paper outlines a system architecture, developed using Agent Oriented Design (AOD), aimed at providing page filtering within a limited domain. This domain is specified via an explicit taxonomy. A prototype system was built using this architecture, which draws upon a user's innate ability to determine the relevance of web pages to their own information needs. It is argued that the resulting system incorporates the best aspects of existing Automated Collaborative Filtering (ACF) systems, whilst still retaining the benefits of the more traditional, feature based approach. In support of this claim and the general success of these systems, initial evaluation of the system is also reported.
The dismounted close combat soldier is of particular relevance to the UK MoD research community at present due to the nature of conflicts both current and foreseen. In this paper an analysis of the information needs of a junior dismounted close combat(DCC) officer is presented based upon the combat estimate process analysed in the context of selected use-cases. Building upon the developed information needs, an analysis of technologies is presented showing how in current and near future timeframes, technology can assist in the provision of information to a dismounted commander in a physically and cognitively efficient manner.
