Open Source Tools and Metasearch Findings of the Emory MetaCombine Project

Home / Project Briefing Pages / CNI Spring 2006 Project Briefings / Open Source Tools and Metasearch Findings of the Emory MetaCombine Project

April 2, 2006

Martin Halbert
Director for Digital Programs
Emory University

The MetaCombine Project has developed: 1) search techniques for combinations of OAI-PMH and Web resources, 2) semantic clustering and taxonomy assignment for metadata and content, and 3) frameworks for combining digital library components acting as a whole (hence the project name: MetaCombine). The project (funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation) has developed twenty separate software modules as enhancements to the Heretrix web crawler and other digital library tools, and has evaluated these tools with cooperation from the Universities of Illinois and Michigan.
