LAU, City University of Hong Kong DAWEI SONG, The Robert Gordon University XUE LI, University of Queensland JIAN MA, City University of Hong Kong Both similarity-based and popularity-based document ranking functions have been successfully applied to information retrieval (IR) in general. However, the dimension of semantic granularity also should be considered for effective retrieval. In this paper, we propose a semantic granularity based IR model which takes into account the three dimensions, namely similarity, popularity, and semantic granularity, to improve domain-specific search. In particular, a concept-based computational model is developed to estimate the semantic granularity of documents with reference to a domain ontology.

  • LIRG :Tkentyyears On!
    LIRG :TkentyYears On! The Library and Information Research Group (LIRG) was formed in 1977 .Its formation followed informal discussions between researchers who felt it was important to link LIS research with practice and who believed that existing professional organizations were not adequately fulfilling this task. The Group remains active in its central mission of bringing together those with an interest in library and information research and its application. The Group publishes Library and Information Research News (LIRN). it organizes meetings and conferences, and it has a range of awards and prizes. The liveliness of the Group, despite its small membership, is a tribute to the efforts of a succession of people who have participated actively in it over the years. The Group has had many successful activities over the last few years incuding a major conference on quality, some excellent seminars, the continued production of LIRN, and the establishment of the LIRG StudentPrizes. However, thetwentiethanniversaryoftheestablishmentoftheGroupisanopportunetime to review what we are doing and how we operate. We cannot ignore that the research environment has changed markedly over the last twenty years and that the needs of our members and potential members are likely to have evolved and changed. The Group needs to move towards agreement on our future mission, aims, operation, activities, and priorities. A new Committee came into office at the last Annual General Meeting in April. It is a pleasure that we have some new Committee Members who wish to become fully involved with the Group. They join a strong core of existing Committee Members who wish to continue their work for the Group.

CONVENER’S REPORT Professor Maehle reported on four items, as undernoted. SPSO’s Complaints Handling Procedure Like all other HEIs, the university was required to adopt the Scottish Public Services Ombudsman’s (SPSO’s) Complaints Handling Procedure (CHP). To date, considerable work had been undertaken on this matter by the Academic Regulations Sub-Committee and further consideration had been given to this by the Quality Assurance and Enhancement Committee and Academic Council. Going forward, the key challenge would be in training staff across the university on this new process, which would replace all existing complaints processes/procedures.
