| Publisher Description: Revision with unchanged content. In order to obtain an acceptable quality of filtering services in real time con-di-tions a trade-off between relevance of results and response time has to be addressed while searching for needed information in numerous distributed re-positories. Unfortunately, ignoring a necessity to address information re-trie-val in distributed and resource-aware manner is usually a serious drawback for many existing search engines that try to survive an ongoing information ex-plosion. The essence of a proposed distributed approach for information re-trieval is in comprehensive coordination and cooperation mechanisms which both take care of current availability of resources and try to improve them-selves during runtime. Additionally, they are able to guarantee delivery of results by combining multiple filtering strategies with very different ca-pa-bi-lities and by using inbuilt self-healing for recovery after failures. As the re-a-li-za-tion of the proposed mechanisms is described in details and experimentally pro-ven, this book is mainly addressed to professionals in distributed in-for-ma-tion retrieval and advanced search engine technologies. It is also directed to-wards researches in filtering strategies and agent technologies. |
