Towards a highly-scalable and effective metasearch engine [PDF]

open access: closedProceedings of the 10th international conference on World Wide Web, 2001
A metasearch engine is a system that supports uni ed access to multiple local search engines. Database selection is one of the main challenges in building a large-scale metasearch engine. The problem is to eAEciently and accurately determine a small number of potentially useful local search engines to invoke for each user query.

A Metasearch Engine with Automatic Resource Binding Ability

open access: closed, 2004
Metasearch has been proved to be a quite effective method to integrate information spaces provided by underlying search engines. But how to admit new resources dynamically was almost neglected. Current solutions include software recoding or resource rebinding by metasearch engine developers.

Advanced metasearch engines

open access: closedProceedings of the 18th ACM conference on Information and knowledge management, 2009
A metasearch engine is a system, which is connected to different search engines. In response to a user query, it invokes suitable search engines for the query, merges the information returned by these search engines and output the merged result. There are two types of metasearch engines: one type for unstructured data (mostly text) and the other for ...

Intelligent metasearch engine for knowledge management

open access: closedProceedings of the twelfth international conference on Information and knowledge management - CIKM '03, 2003
The explosive growth of available information sources and the resulting information overload pose several problems for users in many business organizations and educational institutions. First, searching through several information sources, one at a time, is a source of enormous frustration for users.

Metasearch engine result optimization using reformed genetic algorithm

open access: closed2019 9th International Conference on Computer and Knowledge Engineering (ICCKE), 2019
Metasearch engine is a system that applies several different search engines, merges the returned results from the search engines and presents the best results. Principal component of the metasearch engine is the method applied for merging the given results. The most of existing merging algorithms are relied on the information achieved by ranking scores

Myriad- a Novel User Feedback Based Metasearch Engine

open access: closedAdvanced Materials Research, 2012
Metasearch engine is a system that provides unified access to multiple existing search engines. After the results returned from all used component search engines are collected, the metasearch system merges the results into a single ranked list which is expected to be better than the results of the best of the participating search systems.

Building efficient and effective metasearch engines

ACM Computing Surveys, 2002
Frequently a user's information needs are stored in the databases of multiple search engines. It is inconvenient and inefficient for an ordinary user to invoke multiple search engines and identify useful documents from the returned results. To support unified access to multiple search engines, a metasearch engine can be constructed.

Classification and fusion results in metasearch engines

2012 Next Generation Networks and Services (NGNS), 2012
Searching for information on the Internet is not only an essential way to get information, but also a strategic tool to obtain a wide variety of information. Unfortunately, Web is so huge and so unstructured that the collection of specific, fair and useful information becomes a daunting ant time-wasting task.
