Abstract

This paper discusses the use of usage information to enhance cooperative behaviour from query answering systems. A user can pose a query to the system by providing (at query time) update and preference information. Updates allow us to model dynamically evolving worlds and preferences allow us to facilitate the retrieval of information by targeting the answers of the system with respect to users' interests in a given context.
