Abstract
Improved usability and efficiency of organizational information systems brings economical benefits to the organization and time benefits to the users. We present a browsing assistance service suitable for the organizational intranet environments. It helps users to shorten their browsing interactions and achieve their goals faster. These benefits are accomplished by providing relevant suggestions on the potential navigation targets of interest to the users. The system design employs the analytics of user browsing behavior and its appropriate segmentation. It efficiently utilizes the initial and the terminal navigation points for providing recommendations. The performance of the system has been evaluated on the real world data of a large scale intranet portal.
