Abstract

We examine the search of partitioned Inverted Files with particular emphasis on issues which arise from different types of partitioning methods. Two types of Index Partitions are investigated: namely TermId and DocId. We describe the search operators implemented in order to support partitioned search. We also describe higher level features such as search topologies and relevance feedback in partitioned search. The results from runs on both type of partitioning are compared and contrasted.
