Abstract

Information in a database collection of knowledge resources is evaluated by collecting a plurality of documents having non-unique values on a shared attribute into an information aggregate; assigning to each document an usefulness value; and calculating and visualizing the acceleration of the aggregate as a ratio of a sum of the usefulness values for documents recently included in the information aggregate to a sum of the usefulness values for all documents in the aggregate.
