Unique Knowledge Discovery and Exploration Tools


  • Based on both explicit and implicit metadata, as well as fulltext; lexical work all based on ASCII
  • Active Skim View of every chapter, to ease online browsing
  • Discovery Engine, an integrated search results set with intrinsic further-exploration tools (FMLT, etc)
  • Web Search Builder, a means of using the key terms of any chapter to build targeted searches of Google, etc., as well as the National Academies Press.
  • Reference Finder, a Web form into which one can drop a rough draft or an article to "find more like" it.
