Text Search

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.

Query Language

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'
