    Abstract
    Reports a comparison of the retrieval effectiveness of the AltaVista, Excite and Lycos Web search engines. Describes a method for comparing the recall of the 3 sets of searches, despite the fact that they are carried out on non identical sets of Web pages. It is thus possible, unlike previous comparative studies of Web search engines, to consider both recall and precision when evaluating the effectiveness of search engines

    Abstract
    Search engines are defined, and recent developments described, exemplified, and evaluated, especially those concerned with traditional search and retrieval capabilities. Discussion concentrates on two broad issues: (1) collection and indexing methods and (2) retrieval and ranking methods. It is concluded that a wider adoption of field searching, proximity searching, and relevance feedback would improve quality of search results
