Web search engines exploit conjunctive queries and special ranking criteria which differ from the disjunctive queries typically used for ad-hoc retrieval. We wanted to asses the e...

The search problem, ACCESSIBILITY, asks whether a finite sequence of events can be found such that, starting with a specific initial event, a particular state can be reached. This...
We report on the results of a series of experiments with a prototype text retrieval system which uses relatively advanced natural language processing techniques in order to enhanc...
