This invention aims to provide an efficient means of performing a document search wherein relevance between plural document databases is examined. A summary making module and a search module are provided to document databases, and these are connected to a network as a server. A client obtains a relevant set of documents in a specified document database via this summary from a set of documents in the specified document database. The summary obtained is sent to another server, and a search is performed according to the summary in a document database in the server to which the summary is transferred.

Method of searching documents and a service for searching documents

Achieving efficient analysis of search results, which is required for the examination of search queries, by listing up both title information of a retrieved document group and the whole information. By arranging search results display area and topic word display area adjacently on a retrieval assisting interface, the title information and topic information can be browsed by users; by arranging search results analysis means such as mark title button for emphasizing documents containing designated topic words, along with mark topic word button for emphasizing topic words contained in a designated document, users can analyze search results readily from various standpoints.

Document retrieval assisting method and system for the same and document retrieval service using the same

A document retrieval assistance method has a user interface with an interactive guidance function. In response to a search query, search results including a title list of retrieved documents is displayed alongside a separate display of topic words extracted from the retrieved documents which reflect the search results. In particular, a topic-word graph is displayed alongside a list of titles of the retrieved documents and the interface enables browsing of the documents using the topic words. Further, the interface permits emphasized display of the list of titles of the documents through direct selection of the titles displayed in the list or through selection of the topic words. Further, an associative search can be executed using a selected document to refine the original search results and develop updated displays of the search results and topic words contained in the documents.

Computer program embodied on a computer-readable medium for a document retrieval service that retrieves documents with a retrieval service agent computer

Document retrieval assisting method, system and service using closely displayed areas for titles and topics

A calculation processing system characterized by decomposing a program into tuples, functions and variables, including abstracting the decomposed program thereby to transform it into a combinator graph, assigning the program in the combinator graph to a plurality of process units, and executing the assigned program through reductions.

Combination reduction processing method and apparatus

A semiconductor integrated circuit device is disclosed. A plurality of unit cells, each having at least a basic transistor device formed on one main surface of a semiconductor substrate, are arranged in a line to form a unit cell line. At least two of such unit cell lines are arranged adjacent to and in parallel with each other to form a basic cell line. A plurality of such basic cell lines are arranged in parallel with each other with a wiring region of a predetermined width being interleaved between adjacent basic cell lines.
