Abstract :
Locating digital documents in modern organisations with the aid of metadata is a challenging area of research in document management systems. In order to investigate this, we have built an AWOCADO (adaptive workflow controller and document organiser) prototype system. AWOCADO provides a framework for defining and managing document attributes as well as looking up documents by using their attributes. An evaluation study was conducted to observe information retrieval using metadata in our system
