Abstract
IR research is now conducted in multi-media, multi-lingual, and multi-modal environments but largely in a context-free manner (Ingwersen & Järvelin, 2005). However, the retrieval of such information depends on time, place, history of interaction, task in hand, and a range of other factors that are not given explicitly but are implicit in the interaction and ambient environment, namely the context. Such contextual data can be used effectively to constrain retrieval of information thereby reducing the complexity of the retrieval process.
