Abstract
An examination of the roles and dimensions of collaborative search reveals new opportunities for information-seeking support tools.

IEEE Internet ComputingAmazon.com recommendations: item-to-item collaborative filtering
5,369 Citations2003Greg Linden, Brent Smith +1 more
This work compares three common approaches to solving the recommendation problem: traditional collaborative filtering, cluster models, and search-based methods, and their algorithm, which is called item-to-item collaborative filtering.
SearchTogether
421 Citations2007Meredith Ringel Morris, Eric Horvitz
This work introduces SearchTogether, a prototype that enables groups of remote users to synchronously or asynchronously collaborate when searching the Web, and discusses the ways SearchTogether facilitates collaboration by supporting awareness, division of labor, and persistence.
A survey of collaborative web search practices
258 Citations2008Meredith Ringel Morris
A survey of knowledge workers at a large technology company has revealed that a large proportion of users engage in searches that include collaborative activities, and the implications for designing new Web search interfaces that provide tools for sharing are reviewed.
Algorithmic mediation for collaborative exploratory search
178 Citations2008Jeremy Pickens, Gene Golovchinsky +3 more
Algorithmic mediation improved both collaborative search (allowing a team of searchers to find relevant information more efficiently and effectively), and exploratory search (discovering relevant information that cannot be found while working individually).
arXiv (Cornell University)A Taxonomy of Collaboration in Online Information Seeking
80 Citations2009Gene Golovchinsky, Jeremy Pickens +1 more
A model of possible kinds of collaboration is proposed, which contains four dimensions: intent, depth, concurrency and location, and can be used to classify existing systems and to suggest possible opportunities for design in this space.
Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIEFíschlár-DiamondTouch: collaborative video searching on a table
21 Citations2006Alan F. Smeaton, Hyowon Lee +3 more
This work is evaluating collaborative, team-based search among groups of users working together, and that it is using a novel touch-sensitive tabletop interface and interaction device known as the DiamondTouch to support this collaborative search.

The study and discussion presented here are driven by two dissatisfactions: (1) the majority of IR systems today do not facilitate collaboration directly, and (2) the concept of collaboration itself is not well-understood.
Trusted search communities
5 Citations2007Peter Briggs, Barry Smyth
A dynamic model of trust as a way to coordinate collaboration is described, and experimental results are provided to show that search performance improves as the network evolves.
