Abstract

The explosion of information on the World Wide Web (WWW) and on corporate Intranets has made it increasingly important to have methods of organizing and understanding the available content. One method being used to facilitate both the location of specific Web content and the assessment of its quality is metadata. This paper focuses on verifying a metadata model designed for distributing decision support systems (DSS) on the Web. The verification utilizes an experiment to assess end-users' understanding of specific DSS.
