Use the form below to search for documents
in this web containing specific words or combinations of words. The
text search engine will display a weighted list of matching documents,
with better matches shown first. Each list item is a link to a matching
document; if the document has a title it will be shown, otherwise only
the document's file name is displayed. A brief
explanation
of the query language is available, along with examples.
The text search engine allows queries
to be formed from arbitrary Boolean expressions containing the keywords
AND, OR, and NOT, and grouped with parentheses. For example:
- information retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information'
or
- 'retrieval'
- information or retrieval
- same as above
- information
and retrieval
- finds documents containing both
'information'
- and 'retrieval'
- information not retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information'
but
- not 'retrieval'
- (information not
retrieval) and WAIS
- finds documents containing 'WAIS',
plus 'information' but not 'retrieval'
- web*
- finds documents containing
words starting
- with 'web'
