The EERQI Search Engine

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Assessing Quality in European Educational Research

Abstract

Search engines typically consist of a crawler which traverses the web while retrieving any kind of documents, storing them in a database, and a search frontend which provides the user interface to the acquired information within that database. The EERQI search engine however is able to distinguish and retrieve just documents referring to the subject of this project. The search front-end gives sophisticated options to the user and is augmented by a multilingual interface. It accepts input in any of the four project languages (English, French, German, Swedish), showing results in each of these languages.
