Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona / The NSF/DARPA/NASA Digital Libraries Initiative (DLI) project at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), 1994-1998, had the goal of developing widely usable Web technology to effectively search technical documents on the Internet. The DLI testbed focused on using the document structure to provide federated searches across publisher collections. Our sociology research included the evaluation of its effectiveness under use by over 1,000 UIUC faculty and students, a user community an order of magnitude bigger than the last generation of research projects centered on searching scientific literature. Our technology research developed indexing
of the contents of text documents to enable a federated search across multiple sources, testing this on millions of documents for semantic federation. This article will discuss the achievements and difficulties we experienced
over the past four years.
