Abstract

Faceted browsers offer an effective way to explore relationships and build new knowledge across data sets. So far, web-based faceted browsers have been hampered by limited feature performance and scale. QWIC, Quick Web Interface Control, describes a set of design heuristics to address performance speed both at the interface and the backend to operate on large-scale sources.
