Abstract

This research introduces the use of animation in retrieval results presentation as the next step in the evolution of information retrieval visualisation. Some of the issues of using animation in this context are discussed. An implemented Java workbench called WebTree will be used as a framework for the design, development and evaluation of the visualisation interface.
