Client-Side Revisitation Support with Contextual and Dynamic Suggestions for the Speed Dial's Thumbnail

Recurrent behavior is common in web navigation and users find many problems in re-accessing the useful resources and relevant content. A variety of approaches are being introduced to support in re-finding through various features. Among all, back and forward buttons are specific to the current session, while history and browser search is generic to all the links visited throughout. Contextual tabs need a keyword to suggest options of possible pages. Furthermore, implicit bookmarks need less human intervention and empower revisitation through intelligent automatic techniques. Popular implicit bookmarks in browsers are New-Tab speed dials. These thumbnails are few in number, less attractive, usually not ranked as per user interests. They don't provide true support for the fluctuating activity of a user at different times of the day. This paper represents some issues and changeless in existing methods. Moreover, this paper proposed a novel model for making these New-Tab speed dials thumbnails more useful to use. We design a new ranking formula for the thumbnails including temporal and visual context to the layout. Results show that the proposed model improves user satisfaction, relevance to the resources for revisitation.
