Abstract. The InfoHarness ^TM system is aimed at providing integrated and rapid access to huge amounts of heterogeneous information independent of its type, representation, and location. InfoHarness is intended to provide advanced search and browsing capabilities without imposing the burden of restructuring, reformatting, or relocating information on information suppliers. This is achieved through creating metadata entries (e.g., type, location, access rights, owner, creation date, etc.) and associating them with the original information. The metadata extraction methods ensure rapid and largely automatic creation of information repositories. A stable hierarchy of abstract classes is proposed to organize the processing and representation needs of different types of information. An extensible hierarchy of terminal classes simplifies support for new information types and utilization of new indexing technologies. InfoHarness repositories may be accessed through Mosaic or any other HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) compliant browser.
