Many non-cooperative settings that could potentially be studied using game theory are characterized by having very large strategy spaces and payoffs that are costly to compute. Be...
Prior research into search system scalability has primarily addressed query processing efficiency [1, 2, 3] or indexing efficiency [3], or has presented some arbitrary system arch...
This paper presents a retrospective data analysis on how 75 clinicians searched for and accessed biomedical literature from an online information retrieval system to answer six cl...
Web search query logs contain traces of users’ search modifications. One strategy users employ is deleting terms, presumably to obtain greater coverage. It is useful to model a...
We consider the problem of efficiently sampling Web search engine query results. In turn, using a small random sample instead of the full set of results leads to efficient approxi...
