perception and user (dis)satisfaction tracking;


9) Design of meta-data structures (e.g. XMLs) for intuitive
referencing in content classification, computer-aided navigation
models e.g. contextually-aware agent/interface logics and layers
to suit various navigation contexts, client-based /ISP-based
