Abstract
Methods and systems to search a data source based on compatibility with an application. The system receives a first query that includes keywords and identifies at least one keyword in the first query as application information. The application information describes a first application. Next the system infers remaining keywords in the first query as item information that describe a first item that is sought on a network-based marketplace. The first item is a part that is compatible with the first application. Next, the system searches a data storage device to identify a first listing on the data storage device as matched. The first listing includes an item for sale on the network-based marketplace and listing item information that matches the item information in the first query. The first listing further includes listing application information that is matched based on the application information.
