In this paper the task of Information Foraging (IF) is considered as a useful paradigm to address Exploratory Search. In the context of IF, a Web navigation strategy is introduced and formalized, and a multi-Agent based model is proposed to exploit a collaborative approach to Information Foraging. A system based on this model has been developed, and its preliminary evaluations on the ACM and DBLP repositories are reported. The results are promising and show the ability of the proposed Web Information Foraging system to find relevant Web pages.

Abstract
In this paper the task of Information Foraging (IF) is considered as a useful paradigm to address Exploratory Search. In the context of IF, a Web navigation strategy is introduced and formalized, and a multi-Agent based model is proposed to exploit a collaborative approach to Information Foraging. A system based on this model has been developed, and its preliminary evaluations on the ACM and DBLP repositories are reported. The results are promising and show the ability of the proposed Web Information Foraging system to find relevant Web pages.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
