Finding a previously visited page during a Web navigation is avery common and important kind of interaction. Most commercialbrowsers incorporate history mechanisms, which typically aresimple indexes of visited pages, sorted according to the timedimension. Such mechanisms are not very effective and are quitefar from giving users the impression of a semantically aware,long-term memory, as it is available to the human brain. Inparticular they lack associative, semantic-based mechanisms thatare essential for supporting information retrieval. This paperintroduces xMem (eXtended Memory Navigation) as a new method toaccess users' navigation history, based upon semantic andassociative access. Its aim is to emulate some of the features ofthe human memory, so as to give users a better understanding ofthe context of their searches, by exploiting semantic cuescharacterizing contents of visited pages.
