Abstract
A method includes receiving a search request including a search input; and identifying a history information item based on the search input. The history includes information describing a prior state of an object. The method also includes determining whether information describing a current state of the object corresponds to the search input. The method includes outputting a prior-state based search result item that identifies the object and includes information based on the history information item. If the information describing the current state of the object corresponds to the search input, the method includes outputting a current-state based search result item that includes a link for accessing the object.
