Patent Searching and Data


Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISTRIBUTED INDEX SEARCHING OF ELECTRONIC CONTENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/043970
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
There are provided methods and systems for efficient search in a peer-to-peer network topology. In various embodiments, search methods and systems provide for response times and network traffic that are independent from the number of query terms, thereby producing constant run-time searches and bandwidth hits in a P2P network search implementation. By distributing inverse indexes between peers, and storing with each inverse index a Bloom filter populated with selected keywords, multi-term search and analysis can be conducted on one network node without requiring exchange of posting lists between various network nodes.
