A visual sonificated web search clustering engine

Cognitive Processing, 2009
This work aimed at expanding the architecture of WhatsOnWeb (WoW; Di Giacomo et al. 2007) following accessibility and usability state-of-the-art criteria. WoW is a visual Web search engine that conveys the indexed dataset using graph-drawing methods on semantically clustered data.

A Specialized Search Engine for Web Service Discovery

IEEE International Conference on Web Services, 2012
Web service discovery on the web is not a trivial task as the number of available web service descriptions continuously increases, and global UDDI registries are no longer available.

Rethinking gaming: The ethical work of optimization in web search engines

Social Studies of Science, 2019
When measures come to matter, those measured find themselves in a precarious situation. On the one hand, they have a strong incentive to respond to measurement so as to score a favourable rating. On the other hand, too much of an adjustment runs the risk

Web Search Studies: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Web Search Engines

2009
Perhaps the most significant tool of our internet age is the web search engine, providing a powerful interface for accessing the vast amount of information available on the world wide web and beyond. While still in its infancy compared to the knowledge tools that precede it – such as the dictionary or encyclopedia – the impact of web search engines on ...

Defining the Web: the politics of search engines

Computer, 2000
Although the Web itself might truthfully claim a sovereign disinterested and unbiased attitude toward the people who use it, the authors claim that search engines, the tools that navigate the astronomical number of pages (800 million and counting), favor popular, wealthy, and powerful sites at the expense of others. Some researchers have estimated that,

Evaluation of Web Search Engines

2011
Using the proper search engine is crucial for efficient and effective web search. The objective of this paper is to develop methodologies to evaluate search engines in a systematic and reliable manner. A new model for evaluation and comparison of search engines is proposed.

Defining a session on Web search engines

Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2007
AbstractDetecting query reformulations within a session by a Web searcher is an important area of research for designing more helpful searching systems and targeting content to particular users. Methods explored by other researchers include both qualitative (i.e., the use of human judges to manually analyze query patterns on usually small samples) and ...

Overview of Mondou Web search engine using text mining and information visualizing technologies

Proceedings 2000 Kyoto International Conference on Digital Libraries: Research and Practice, 2000
As the volume of Web pages on the Internet is increasing rapidly, it is becoming hard for users to discover valuable Web resources. It is especially difficult for naive users to discover informative pages by popular Web search engines, since they don't ...

Searching the Web with an FPGA Based Search Engine

2007
In this paper we describe an FPGA implementation for solving Internet ranking algorithms. Sparse Matrix by Vector multiplication forms a major part of these algorithms. Due to memory bandwidth problems, general purpose processors only achieve a fraction of peak processing power when dealing with sparse matrices.
