Using Contextual Queries

Search engines generally treat search requests in isolation. The results for a given query are identical, independent of the user, or the context in which the user made the request. An approach is demonstrated that explores implicit contexts as obtained from a document the user is reading. The approach inserts into an original (web) document functionality to directly activate context driven queries that yield related articles obtained from various information sources.
