A Context-Driven Integrated Framework for Research on Interactive IR 1

This paper discusses the Integrated Research Framework for Information Seeking and Retrieval (ISR) originating from (Ingwersen & Jarvelin, 2005) by comparing it to the Laboratory Research Framework for IR and two nested models of contexts involved in ISR: that of Kekalainen & Jarvelin (2002), based on work task activities, and the model by Ingwersen (2007) focusing on contexts to information objects. In addition the relevance model by Cosijn (2004), also of nested nature, is discussed, leading forward to the nine dimensions of research variables, potentially influencing ISR processes and evaluation.
