Past research has identified many different types of relevance in information retrieval (IR). So far, however, most evaluation of IR systems has been through batch experiments cond...
Searching very large collections can be costly in both computation and storage. To reduce this cost, recent research has focused on reducing the size (pruning) of the inverted ind...
Several decades of software engineering research confirm that effective reuse is the only realistic approach to meeting the ever-increasing demands on the software industry. Over ...
