ABSTRACT

In this paper we present metadata based recommendation algorithms addressing two scenarios within social desktop communities: a) recommendation of resources from the co-worker's desktop, and b) recommendation of metadata for enriching the own annotation layer. Together with the algorithms we present first evaluation results as well as empirical evaluations showing that metadata based recommendations can be used in such distributed social desktop communities.
