Abstract :
The prototype O system seamlessly integrates Web searching and browsing on touch-enabled tablets using two-handed gesture interaction, much like handling and marking content on a piece of paper. The system also leverages contextual information to infer user intent and significantly improve search results over traditional keyword-based approaches, enabling users to go beyond websites\´ "walled garden"\´ and more fully explore information objects.
