Dan Chudnov and I have just posted a draft paper which is currently entitled "Service Autodiscovery for Rapid Information Movement". It is available at http://curtis.med.yale.edu/dchud/writings/sa4rim.html. It's summary reads: "In this informal paper we review several exciting recent advances in online information services, and how users navigate through and move information between a multitude of resource types. We consider ways in which those advances bring us closer to, but still fall short of, meeting the ultimate user requirements of simplicity and coherence. We propose expanding on the model of "autodiscovery" as a means to enable both users and machines to move more freely between human and machine interfaces." Any comments or feedback folks have would be greatly appreciated! -- jf =================================== Jeremy Frumkin The Gray Family Chair for Innovative Library Services 121 The Valley Library, Oregon State University Corvallis OR 97330-4501 [log in to unmask] 541.737.9928 541.737.3453 (Fax) 541.230.4483 (Cell) =================================== " Without ambition one starts nothing.
