Prior research into search system scalability has primarily addressed query processing efficiency [1, 2, 3] or indexing efficiency [3], or has presented some arbitrary system arch...
Abstract: Among other things, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are very useful for managing large amounts of widely distributed data. Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) offer a highly scalabl...
In some retrieval situations, a system must search across multiple collections. This task, referred to as federated search, occurs for example when searching a distributed index o...
In order to search corpora written in two or more languages, the simplest and most efficient approach is to translate the query submitted into the required language(s). To achieve...
