Scope of the Issue/Significance of Web information retrieval

The amount of available information on the Web is continuously increasing.
Web search techniques were initially based on the analysis of the Web
structure, as well as the documents' textual content. Recent applications,
such as the retrieval from blogs, enterprise and intranet searching, or
context-dependent searching, require new retrieval techniques.

This special issue of the Journal of Digital Information Management will
address recent and original developments in the Web information retrieval
field, including those described above. We welcome high-quality papers
addressing the theoretical and/or the practical issues underlying the
retrieval of information from the Web. 

Submissions to the special issue should not be under consideration in any
other journal or conference and will be evaluated according to the Journal
of Digital Information Management reviewing criteria and appropriateness to
