Abstract

In this paper we consider information exchange via the Web to be an information market. The notion of quality plays an important role on this information market. We present a model of quality and discuss how this model can be operationalized.

This leads us to quality measurement, interpretation of measurements and the associated accuracy. An illustration in the form of a basic quality assessment system is presented.

The investigations were partly supported by the Dutch Organization for Scientific Research (NWO).
