Coagmento 2.0: A system for capturing individual and group information seeking behavior

摘要

In this demo, we present Coagmento 2.0, a Web-based, open-source platform that provides support for one working in individual or group projects spanning multiple sessions that involve looking for, collecting, and synthesizing information. The system also provides a highly customizable platform for researchers who want to investigate individual and group information seeking behaviors in a lab or a field setting. The demo not only shows back-end components and front-end interaction elements of the system, but also how one could easily configure Coagmento for user studies involving information seeking/retrieval with digital libraries (including the Web).
