Abstract
Utilizing transactional log data taken from digital journal libraries and attitudinal and demographic data derived from a questionnaire survey, the article pieces together evidence concerning the use, users, and role of abstracts in a digital environment. It shows that abstracts are used in large quantities, even when full-text viewing facilities are available. The `popularity' of abstracts is partly a function of how users navigate towards content in cyberspace, through search engines and gateways, and partly because they provide a quick and effective means of assessing relevance of content (AU)

Abstract
Discusses the basic elements of a global cognitive theory for information retrieval (IR) interaction from a cognitive point of view.

Abstract
Professional summarizers often reuse original documents to generate summaries. The task of summary sentence decomposition is to deduce whether a summary sentence is constructed by reusing the original text and to identify reused phrases. Specifically, the decomposition program needs to answer three questions for a given summary sentence: (1) Is this summary sentence constructed by reusing the text in the original document? (2) If so, what phrases in the sentence come from the original document? and (3) From where in the document do the phrases come? Solving the decomposition problem can lead to better text generation techniques for summarization. Decomposition can also provide large training and testing corpora for extraction-based summarizers. We propose a hidden Markov model solution to the decomposition problem. Evaluations show that the proposed algorithm performs well. (AU)
