This work addresses two common problems in search, frequently occurring with underspecified user queries: the top-ranked results for such queries may not contain documents relevan...
The number of documents that are indexed by a search engine is referred to as the size of the search engine. The information about the size of each underlying search engine is ess...
A distributed concurrent search algorithm for distributed constraint satisfaction problems (DisCSPs) is presented. Concurrent search algorithms are composed of multiple search proc...
We introduce a new search problem motivated by computational metrology. The problem is as follows: we would like to locate two unknown numbers x, y [0, 1] with as little uncertain...
We present an improvement to Harvey and Ginsberg's limited discrepancy search algorithm, which eliminates much of the redundancy in the original, by generating each path from...
