Abstract
The purpose of an information retrieval (IR) system is to help
users accomplish a task. IR system evaluation should consider
both task success and the value of support given over the entire
information seeking episode. Relevance-based measurements fail
to address these requirements. In this paper, usefulness is
proposed as a basis for IR evaluation.
