    Abstract
    Reviews the progress of parallel computing in information retrieval. Stresses the importance of the motivation is using parallel computing for text retrieval. Analyzes parallel IR systems using a classification defined by Rasmussen and describes some parallel IR systems. Gives a description of the retrieval models used in parallel information processing and notes areas where research is needed
