Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Preserved Fulltext
Finally, we present recent results that can help to partially solve the challenges posed. ¡ Distributed data: due to the intrinsic nature of the Web, data spans over many computers and platforms. ...
In this article we analyze the problem of searching the WWW, giving some insight and models to understand its complexity. Then we survey the two main current techniques used to search the WWW. ...
Acknowledgments We thanks the helpful comments of Gonzalo Navarro, in particular his contribution to Section 2. ...

For instance, many such search engines return to users both images and web documents as answers to the query "flower". Aggregated search has become a very popular paradigm. ...
Compared with three baselines (traditional "general web only" ranking, federated search ranking and aggregated search), our evaluation results demonstrate significant performance improvement for a highly ...

Available open data can be exploited to dramatically improve the design of local search engines and their content. ...
Those issues come for example from the lack of information about local events and actors, or the specific form taken by the indexable data. ...
For all of those reasons, the development of local search engines and related data architecture designs -including usage of open data -is an important topic of investigation for the World Wide Web community ...

In this paper, we study a new information-access paradigm, called "interactive, fuzzy search," in which the system searches the underlying data "on the fly" as the user types in query keywords. ...
One of them has been deployed to support interactive search on the UC Irvine people directory, which has been used regularly and well received by users due to its friendly interface and high efficiency ...
We materialized the union lists of all the query keywords and their prefixes, and computed an intersection by using the record IDs of the shortest list to probe the other union lists. ...

SnakeT is the first complete and open-source system in the literature that offers both hierarchical clustering and folder labeling with variable-length sentences. ...
However search engines do not provide a cheap access to the web graph thus making the link retrieval efficient if limited to a local (partial) copy available at the clustering engine site. ...
