The study will merge measures of exposure to televised anti-smoking advertising, press coverage about tobacco issues and other tobacco control policies with (a) an annually interviewed cohort of 2,000 adult smokers from 2002-2008 and (b) triennial surveys of smoking among adolescents 1993-2008 (n-150,000).

The project aims to design a search engine that monitors and retrieves over multiple social media and micro-blogging platforms. The engine presents search results in a personalised continuously updated summary. An inverted index structure systematically captures and provides easy access to all monitored content, including text, linked and relational data. The structure enables a continuous search paradigm that tracks updates on both the content and popularity of search results. This is expected to help organisations and governments track, understand and exploit social media.Read moreRead less
