Topic maps and graphical structures

Interesting webpage that explores the potential for adding probabilistic measures and operators to topic maps.

Moreover, it points out the lack of benchmarks for topic maps.

You might want to make note the last update was 4 November 2000.

Anyone care to point out any work on benchmarks for topic maps?

Suggestions for how to formulate benchmarks for topic maps?

Questions to myself would include:

  • Is the topic map being generated from source or is this a pre-created topic map being loaded into a topic map engine?
  • If a pre-created topic map, what syntax and/or data model is being tested?
  • What information items in the topic map will meet merging requirements? (by overall percentage and per item)
  • If created from source, what set of subjects need to result in items?
  • Use a common memory size/setting for comparisons.
  • Can we use existing corpora and tests to bootstrap topic map benchmarks?

What others would you ask?
