Multi-Dimensional Indexing

[Gerry Mckiernan]

                               _Multi-Dimensional Indexing_

   I am greatly interested in learning about Any and All e-journals or e-books that have implemented 'Multi-Dimensioning Indexing'  or 'Concept Maps' to access the publication content.

  'Multi-Dimensional Indexing' and Concept Maps are well-described and illustrated in an excellent recent article by Jan Ross entitled "A New Way of Information Retrieval: 3-D Indexing and Concept Mapping" in _Learned  Publishing_ (2000) 13, 119-123

   An example of a 'Multi-Dimensional Index' given by Ross of a 'Multi-Dimensional Index' is that being developed for the forthcoming  Web-based _Encyclopedia of Life Sciences_ [ http://www.els.net/ ]

   As Always, Any and All contributions, suggestions, comments, critiques, 
cosmic insights, etc., etc., etc. are Most Welcome.
