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'
