The effect of folder structure on personal file navigation
2010
Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology
Preserved Fulltext
Finally, we used a predictive model to formulate the effect of folder depth and folder size on retrieval time, and suggested an optimization point in this trade-off. 3 Personal file navigation (navigation ...
In contrast to previous research that focused on file structure alone, our study also quantitatively investigated file navigation retrieval in a natural setting, and examined the effect of structure on ...

Despite much discussion in HCI research about how individual differences likely determine computer users' personal information management (PIM) practices, the extent of the influence of several important ...
We therefore analyse data from prior CHI work to explore (1) associations of people's file collections with personality and spatial ability, and (2) differences between collections managed with different ...

Although desktop search engines are now widely available on the computers of typical users, navigation through folder hierarchies is still the dominant mode of information access. ...
This paper describes TagTree, a new concept for storing and retrieving files and folders using tagging and automatically maintained navigational hierarchies. ...
Instead of providing a special search interface, TagTree provides an alternative navigational folder structure based on user-supplied tags. ...
