Abstract

Custom made domain-specific query interfaces can provide substantially greater search power than single-field keyword search interfaces. However while there are tools available to automatically build single-field search systems for a given repository of documents there is currently no way to automatically generate multifielded domain-specific query interfaces and systems. In this paper we propose a technique that given an object-oriented conceptual model of data as input can automatically generate a complex domain-specific navigable query interface and search system for that data. Such techniques can have significant impact in making it easier to build e-Commerce Web sites or in rapidly developing query interfaces for integrating data systems as is typically required by the dynamically changing business partners in Extended Enterprise scenarios.
