When you type in a query the search engine will produce a list of Web pages that best match the search words you have used. Search engines differ both in the way that they gather and store information, and in the algorithm they use to match and rank the results. They also vary in the level of sophistication that they permit when you are constructing a search: some allow only relatively simple searches while others offer full Boolean searching and more.

Extractions: The problem is to search through this database to locate entries that contain a C-N-C(C)2 substructure. This could be a simple yes or no for each entry, or a metric can be used to determine how close or far an entry is from having the needed substructure. The latter method is used since it leaves open the possibility of a "fuzzy" search that locates entries that have, or almost have, a given substructure. This metric is a variation of the chemical distance, and it will be described in the next section. The object is to find the minimum if this chemical distance. If an entry contains the desired substructure, this MCD should be zero. As this MCD gets further from zero, the entry is further from having the requested substructure. The MCD from each entry can be determined by examining all possible combinations of one nitrogen and four carbons, as would be the case in a 5-fold DO-loop. Though this may be reasonably efficient for a small substructure like the one given above, if it is enlarged slightly to H-C-N-C(C)-C-H, the CPU time needed by this brute-force method will increase many times since it is now a 7-fold DO-loop. A method is needed that scales well as the size of the substructure, or database entry, increases.

There is no one single index or tool to find everything and anything. However, there are some resources out there to make it a little easier. We've tried to organize the various search engines into similar categories for the ways in which they search and the scope of what they search.

The architecture is also described. Based on a key project of Chinese Academy of Sciences which has been accomplished in June,1998, this paper provides our solution to the above problems. The language accepted are simplified Chinese and English, Traditional Chinese (Big5) and Traditional Chinese (EUC) will be added in the near future. Our established system consists of two subsystems: organization based subsystem and Web-page based subsystem. Organization based subsystem is developed specially for users to find whether a certain organization in China has its own Web-site and some detail information about that organization. Web-page based subsystem is developed for users to searching information in Web documents.

Extractions: jiliu@indiana.edu URL: http://www.indiana.edu/~librcsd/search/meta.html Last Update: June 1999 By now it is fairly safe to assume that most World Wide Web surfers have used one of the Web search engines (such as AltaVista or Northern Light) or Web directories (such as Yahoo! or eBLAST). These resources collect Web pages and create databases for people to browse or search. They can be quite comprehensive (AltaVista claims to have 150 million web pages in its database), or fairly specialized (The Internet Movie Database is for movies). Each of them has its unique content and presents a unique interface, requires a unique set of rules for searching and displays search results differently. To exhaust a search, one often has to use several of them and has to be familiar with the different interfaces and searching rules. It would be highly desirable to have a central place with a uniform interface, where a query can be entered and the search can be conducted simultaneously in as many search engines and directories as necessary, and search results can be brought back and displayed in a consistent format. Tools with these features have come to be called meta-search engines. Unlike the individual search engines and directories, meta-search engines do not have their own databases; they do not collect web pages; they do not accept URL additions; and they do not classify or review web sites. Instead, they send queries simultaneously to multiple Web search engines and/or Web directories. Many of the meta-search engines integrate search results: duplicate findings are merged into one entry; some rank the results according to various criteria; some allow selection of search engines to be searched.
