Users are able to add multiple documents for the MEAD toolkit to summarize and display (see Figures 14). null The Demo allows users to add documents by: selecting files from their computer, adding text in the text box or by supplying a URL to a specified web document. Documents can be plain text, HTML files or Microsoft Word files.</Paragraph> <Paragraph position="1"> vice. WapMead has two modes: a mailbox view, in which a user can search for an email message and a summary view, in which a summary of a message is displayed. Summaries are displayed hierarchically, first showing the most salient sentences in the entire message and then (on a need basis) showing in greater detail particular areas of the message.</Paragraph> </Section> <Section position="3" start_page="28" end_page="28" type="metho"> <SectionTitle> 4 Other interfaces </SectionTitle> <Paragraph position="0"> We will be also showing the Java-MEAD interface (Figure 7) implemented in Nutch (a public-domain search engine from www.nutch.org), an older interface, NewsInEssence (Radev et al., 2001; Radev et al., 2002) (Figure 6), as well as the MEAD command-line interface.</Paragraph> </Section> <Section position="4" start_page="28" end_page="28" type="metho"> <SectionTitle> 5 Acknowledgements </SectionTitle> <Paragraph position="0"> This work is partially supported by grant ITR 0082884 from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
