In this paper, we describe the design of a reusable IR framework, called FIRE, that is being implemented to facilitate the development of IR systems. In addition, FIRE is designed...
Abstract. Design and development of information retrieval IR systems is a complex and expensive process. In the process of building an IR system, developers need to explore a lar...
Carrying out experiments in Information Retrieval is a heavy activity requiring fast tools to treat collections of significant size, and at the same time flexible tools to leave...
Developers of programs for distributed systems spend considerable time designing solutions to various complex decision-making problems. The work described in this paper applies th...
