A light-weight Web-at-a-Glance system for intelligent information retrieval

Web-at-a-Glance (WAG) is a system to assist the user in information retrieval and discovery by gleaning the most relevant information from a web site or several web sites. This paper presents this new approach for intelligent information retrieval from web sites, and describes the prototyping of the light-weight WAG system as an active index system.
