Abstract

The first search engine was found in 1990. Now Google is the largest search engine in the Internet. Search engines are used widely by internet users to search information. In this thesis I consider the features of search engines related to architecture, searching, and ranking. Also the history and categories of search engines is covered. I focus on the application of advanced search methods, like proximity searching, clustering searching, wild card searching, and stemming searching. I present a design for a ranking algorithm, which considers ranking comprehensively. I present the design and implementation of a new meta search engine CSEG which uses two major search engines, Google and Yahoo. The search results of CSEG and other search engines are compared and analyzed; the differences will be shown in detail.
