- The generic clearinghouse technologies developed can provide efficiency in all government and corporate procurement
- National tourism would now be able to distribute into the new global electronic economy
- The clearinghouse could even be used in case of national disaster/terrorism attack to relocate large numbers of a metro population
- The Commonwealth could use this data for things such as setting proper benchmark rates for government travel
- State and regional tourism authorities who would gain huge efficiencies in distribution for their member hotels.
- The project would also help distributors, wholesalers, e-tailers etc.

Accurate Context-Aware Search for Managed Document Collections. Search is a key component of a vast range of computing applications. However, while search on large collections of general-purpose text is well-understood, and the best systems are highly effective, search on smaller or special-purpose collections is much less reliable and has attracted relatively little research. By identifying general ways of using context such as user history or prior page usefulness, the quality of search in s ....Accurate Context-Aware Search for Managed Document Collections. Search is a key component of a vast range of computing applications. However, while search on large collections of general-purpose text is well-understood, and the best systems are highly effective, search on smaller or special-purpose collections is much less reliable and has attracted relatively little research. By identifying general ways of using context such as user history or prior page usefulness, the quality of search in such cases can be greatly improved. Products that make use of these principles will provide greater workplace efficiency and be able to locate information that other search tools cannot identify.Read moreRead less
