VINETA: navigation through virtual information spaces

Vineta is a system prototype allowing navigation through bibliographic data without the typing and revising of keyword-based queries. Our approach to visualizing documents and terms in navigational retrieval includes the representation of documents and terms as graphical objects, and dynamic positioning of these objects in the 3D virtual navigation space. Users can navigate through this virtual navigation space examining individual documents and clusters of documents at various levels of detail. Users can utilize their natural sense of space to interact with the system.
