We have developed a new Active Portal web page on Science - Biology - Immunology It has links to hundreds of pages. Please check it out! Thanks. The address is: http://www.active-portal.com/cgi-bin/genpage?cat=1000316 This page has been developed as part of the Active Portal Project in the Computer Science Department at the University of Wisconsin, an ongoing research project. An active portal is a page devoted to a particular topic but with a difference. The active portal is seeded with a number of a pages known to be about a topic. A search agent then learns the characteristics of those pages and then seeks out similar pages. This search agent runs automatically and continuously. Thus the active portal, unlike manually-compiled portals like Yahoo, continually discovers new pages about a topic. In addition, it ranks a page based on a combined measure of its popularity and content level. The active portal also features a sign-up box for a mailing list that is used to alert its members to new pages that the search agent discovers. Please feel free to reply to this message with any comments. Best regards, Matt Zeidenberg University of Wisconsin Computer Science Dept.
