For articles that provide different ideas from David Ellis' information
seeking behavior model, this one may be helpful:

Foster, A. (2004). A non-linear model of information-seeking behavior. *Journal
of the American Society for Information Science and Technology. *55(3),
228-237

You may also find some useful articles from its references.

Hope it helps...

> and multimedia data to traditional structured data and semi-structured data
> found in the web.
>
> SITIS spans two inter-related research domains that increasingly play a key

> distributed computing and information sharing.
>
> SITIS 2011 aims to provide a forum for high quality presentations on
> research activities centered on two main tracks:
>
>    - The focus of the first track "Internet-Based Computing and Systems"
> (IBCS) focuses on emerging and novel concepts, architectures and
> methodologies for information management. The Internet and the related
> technologies have created an interconnected world in which information can
> be exchanged easily, tasks can be processed collaboratively, communities of
> users with similarly interests can be formed to achieve efficiency and
> improve performance.
>    - The second track titled "Signal & Image Technologies" (SIT) focuses on
> recent developments in digital signal processing and pays particular
> attention to evolutions in audiovisual signal processing, analysis, coding
> and authentication, and retrieval techniques.
>
> Submission and publication
> --------------------------
>
> The conference will include keynote addresses, tutorials, and regular and
> workshop sessions. SITIS 2011 invites submission of high quality and
> original papers on the topics of the major tracks described below.   All
> submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers for
> technical merit, originality, significance and relevance to track topics.
>
> Papers must be up to 8 pages and follow IEEE double columns publication
> format. Accepted papers will be included in the   conference proceedings and
> published by IEEE Computer Society and referenced in IEEE explore and major
> indexes.

> Important dates
