Abstract
Leveraging interconnections across stored personal information is a novel concept to find desired information by context and structure. This paper introduces a combined navigation and search interface for homogeneous knowledge representations based on path and set calculation. It uses graph theory to provide a more intuitive way of supplying search criteria and retrieving related information.
