[WEB4LIB] TopicMap Feature in HighWire

[Jose de Albuquerque Moreira]

Greetings! 
I need to inform to all, the following one: 

So that the initiative of company INXIGTH has greater 
value, I advise to a consultation the page: 

http://www.udcc.org/mrf.htm. 

Is about the Universal Decimal Classification - UDC.The 
structure of scientific, cultural, artistic and 
technological knowledge. An initiative of Paul Otlet 
and Henry La Fontaine, since 188?. 

I think that TopicMap, must call UDC-TopicMap. 

The Universal Collective Initiatives are recommended! 

They accept my emotions, between brothers! 
Happinesses to the all! The World is one!

>             Browse using TopicMap, a graphical viewer

>     An explanation (what's this?) is also available:
>
> "TopicMap" is a special Java applet designed to help 
you navigate topics on
> HighWire in a graphical form. The intent is to give 
you a sense of context
> while navigating a large, tree-structured database.
>
> When TopicMap is launched, it appears in a separate 
window. As it may take
> 60 seconds or more to load, you will want to keep 
this separate window open
> to avoid having to reload frequently.
>
> When results are selected (by double-clicking on a 
topic with more than
> zero documents), the results show up in the original 
browser window from
> which TopicMap was launched. "
