Inspired by the actual trend of empowering traditional Web search methodologies by means of novel computational paradigms, in this paper we propose and experimentally assess WebClustCube, a novel system that allows OLAP-enabled Web search of complex objects, thus adding new value to the potentialities of current Web search paradigms. In particular, WebClustCube supports the building and the interactive manipulation of OLAP-enabled Web views over complex objects extracted from distributed databases. The data management, OLAP-like support of WebClustCube is provided by ClustCube, a state-of-the-art framework for coupling OLAP methodologies and clustering algorithms with the goal of analyzing and mining of complex database objects. A case study that clearly shows the potentialities of WebClustCube in the context of next-generation Web search environments is provided. We complement of analytical contribution by means of an experimental assessment and analysis of WebClustCube according to several metric perspectives.

Abstract
Inspired by the actual trend of empowering traditional Web search methodologies by means of novel computational paradigms, in this paper we propose and experimentally assess WebClustCube, a novel system that allows OLAP-enabled Web search of complex objects, thus adding new value to the potentialities of current Web search paradigms. In particular, WebClustCube supports the building and the interactive manipulation of OLAP-enabled Web views over complex objects extracted from distributed databases. The data management, OLAP-like support of WebClustCube is provided by ClustCube, a state-of-the-art framework for coupling OLAP methodologies and clustering algorithms with the goal of analyzing and mining of complex database objects. A case study that clearly shows the potentialities of WebClustCube in the context of next-generation Web search environments is provided. We complement of analytical contribution by means of an experimental assessment and analysis of WebClustCube according to several metric perspectives.Pubblicazioni consigliate
