Abstract

The general problem we address in this paper is the automatic generation of structural overview maps of large collections of unstructured data to aid in the navigation of collections such as the Web and data retrieved from search engines. We present the theoretical foundations of such a generator, CyberMap, as well as the algorithms used for its implementation. We will detail a series of actual prototype implementations of CyberMap in HyperCard on the Macintosh, in C*on the massively parallel Connection Machine CM-2, as well as in C and Java for the World Wide Web.
