Paper Abstract:
|
Building unified higher-level services for a set of heterogeneous digital libraries (structured data) is a challenging task, and particularly when digital libraries are not amenable to modifications (non-cooperating). In this paper, we provide a lightweight, user centered approach based on LFDL and post-processing techniques. Specifically, we provide a metadata retrieval mechanism from non-cooperating DLs. This allows a user to search seamlessly across a large domain of hidden web pages and obtain a complete set of metadata for the results. In addition, this allows metadata to be stored in a local repository to create an intelligent cache for better performance and efficiency. |
