A computer network search engine is disclosed in which search results are analyzed to identify one or more themes, and individual results are clustered according to one or more of the themes. In one aspect the user may be presented with a graphical representation of one or more cluster of results. In another aspect the search results are presented in the cluster according to a ranked list, and wherein the ranked list may be modified according to attributes of a selected search result and / or dynamically altered according to observations of the user examining the results.

A system and method for enabling information providers using a computer network to influence a position for a search listing within a search result list. A database stores accounts for the network information providers. Each account contains contact and billing information. In addition, each account contains at least one search listing having at least three components: a description, a search term comprising one or more keywords, and a bid amount. The network information provider may add, delete, or modify a search listing after logging into his or her account via an authentication process. The network information provider influences a position for a search listing in the provider's account by first selecting a relevant search term and entering that search term and the description into a search listing. A continuous online competitive bidding process occurs when the network information provider enters a new bid amount for a search listing. This bid amount is compared with all other bid amounts for the same search term. A rank value is generated for all search listings having that search term. The generated rank value determines where the network information provider's listing will appear on the search results list page that is generated in response to a query of the search term by a searcher at a client computer on the computer network. A higher bid by a network information provider will result in a higher rank value and a more advantageous placement.

A notification method in a computer database system includes receiving a notification instruction from an owner associated with a search listing stored in the computer database system, monitoring conditions specified by the notification instruction for the search listing, and sending a notification to the owner upon detection of a changed condition of the search listing.

A method for providing a search result list. The method includes receiving a search request from a searcher. In a database of search listings in which each search listing is associated with an advertiser and includes at least one search term and a bid amount by the advertiser, search listings generating a match with the search request are identified. A predetermined number of identified search listings are selected according to bid amount for display to the searcher. The identified search listings are arranged for display in a random order as the search result list. The search result list is then communicated to the searcher.

A database search apparatus and method for generating a search result list which responds to Extensible Markup Language (XML) requests from a client to a server of an on-line marketplace. A bid management tool is operable on a client computer to manage search listings and account information of one or more advertisers. The client application communicates with the server via an XML-based application program interface. The bid management tool provides functions for reporting account activity, modifying accounts and manual, timed or event-driven changes to search listings including listings of several advertisers.

The invention relates to an intelligent querying method on a handset terminal to a mobile internet, which comprises the following steps: starting querying by the handset terminal, applying a scene processing module to judge scenes of information, bringing scene information into applied scene information, adding user habit information in querying information of users by a querying habit tracking module, inputting the querying information, the scene information and the user habit information into a query judging module, and selecting a network side search engine or a handset end search engine or the network side search engine and a handset end search engine to query simultaneously according to the querying information, the scene information and the user habit information by the query judging module. The fusion of network data and local data, and the unification of the network search engine and the handset end search engine can be realized through adopting the method, which is beneficial for users to obtain rapider data query experience.

The invention provides a value evaluation method for network resource, by which the value measurement of webpage resources to a searching user can be effectively evaluated, thus web resources which are high-quality and really meet the user's intention are priorly provided for the user, the user browse and lookup time is reduced, and the searching efficiency is improved. Furthermore, the invention discloses a method for applying the value evaluation method for network resource to network search engine. According to the value evaluation method, when the network is searched, searched network resources are provided with more accurate weights by which worthless or little-value network resources can be removed, and resources more relevant to a user's real intention can be provided for the user priorly.

The invention discloses a data exchange processing board and a corresponding exchange processing system thereof, which pertains to the technical field of communication. The exchange processing board comprises at least one FPGA device and network search engines which are same with the FPGA devices in number and provides rich functions of filtering and processing based on contents; each FPGA is connected with a back board by an interface of a serialized / deserialized connector; a plurality of FPGA devices can realize the full mesh of star topology. The exchange processing system comprises a plurality of data exchange processing boards, which realize multi-level structural network. The data exchange processing board and the exchange processing system thereof can support the dynamic extension of FPGA of different quantities and even can cascade limitlessly within a range allowed by the interface, which break through the defects of the traditional back board exchanging system in data aggregation and processing and solve the limitation of current back board exchanging technology in respect of band width and expansibility.

The invention provides abstract-type network search engine system and searching method and the application thereof.
