2 Recap  Crawler-Based Search Engine  Limited to a subset of Uconn’s School of Engineering Websites Roughly 3000 Pages  Resources: Web server and MySQL servers provided by ECS Database holds ~5000 keywords  Languages Used: HTML, PHP, SQL, Perl

3 Features  Runs searches on multiple words Ex. “uconn sports” runs a search on the keyword “uconn” and “sports”  Ranks results based on frequency and relevance of words Ex. For “uconn sports”, websites containing both words will be ranked higher than websites containing one or the other  Despite the size of the database, it takes a matter of seconds to display the results

4 Interface – Main Page  Main page contains a text box used for search function

5 Interface – Result Page  Search box  List of URLs  # of Results  Part of URL used as Title instead of the website’s Title

6 Interface – Result Page  10 Results per page  Page number

7 phpMyAdmin Database

8 phpMyAdmin Indexer

9 Some Examples – help  Total Results: 30  1) Cseoveriew  2) Dewolf06  3) Engrvote  4) Doctucapturehonors  5) Endicottstory

10 Some Examples – me  Total Results: 9  1) Crosby07  2) Dewolfjeffersretiring  3) Endicottstory  4) Andreaprof  5) Careerfairfall07

11 Some Examples – now  Total Results: 12  1) Briefhistory  2) Endicottstory  3) Careerfairfall07  4) Biogridnews  5) Alumniprofilescott

12 Some Examples – help me now  Total Results: 40  1) Endicottstory  2) Crosby07  3) Alumniprofilescott  4) Dewolfjerrersretiring  5) Docstucapturehonors

13 Behind the scene functions  Does not show duplicate URLs  Checks for capitals and makes lowercase  Removes any symbols “, ‘, ?, !, @, etc….  QuickSort algorithm used to sort Frequencies from largest to smallest

14 Known Bugs  When the user types in “ or ‘, no results display but slashes (/) appear in the search box. The “previous page” button becomes active and when pressed, more slashes appear in the search box.
