- Abstract
- Most of the operational information retrieval (IR) systems in existence today use Boolean logic during search. Such systems are usually called Boolean IR systems. These systems, as any other IR systems, are not perfect and the problem of their development (and hence providing better quality service for real users) is one of the most important problems in information science. From this viewpoint, the article analyzes existing criticisms of operational systems and points out some of their positive features. At the same time, certain negative effects which hinder the development of existing systems are considered. Finally, the article provides several conclusions about using Boolean logic in developing multiversion IR systems
