Funded Activity Summary

Investigations into Distributed Information Processing of the World Wide Web: Addressing Major Bottlenecks in Search Engine Design. The Internet is a global medium used increasingly for commercial purposes. Nationally provided commercial services and products, as well as general types of information are made available globally via the Internet. Web search engines are the only method by which a common user can find a relevant service or information on the Internet. The sheer size and the dynamics of the Internet pose a significant challenge to search engines. This project proposes to address some major bottlenecks in search engine design (viz. the page rank computation). This may help future search engines to maintain a good level of Web penetration and, consequently will help to ensure a suitable coverage of nationally available services and information to the world.
