Thematic World Wide Web Visualization System
Abstract
WebTheme is a system designed to facilitate world wide web information access and retrieval through visualization. It consists of two principal pieces, a WebTheme Server which allows users to enter in a query and automatocally harvest and process information of interest, and a WebTheme browser, which allows users to work with both Galaxies and Themescape visualizations of their data within a JAVA capable world wide web browser. WebTheme is an Internet solution, meaning that access to the server and the resulting visualizations can all be performed through the use of a WWW browser. This allows users to access and interact with SPIRE (Spatial Paradigm for Information Retrieval and Exploration) based visualizations through a web browser regardless of what computer platforms they are running on. WebTheme is specifically designed to create databases by harvesting and processing WWW home pages available on the Internet.

- WebTheme utilizes SID, a text engine developed to characterize the contents of textual documents for the purpose of visualiztion. SID was developed on internal LDRD funds at PNNL. As WebTheme is an Internet based application, it requires the use of a JAVA enabled WWW browser to access the server and interact with the visualizations. Both the Netscape and Internet Explorer browser have been tested.
