hi, think first of the relevance of the model in this 2 search engine for XML document retrieval.
Lucene is classic fulltext search engine using the vector space model. this model is efficient for indexing no structred document (like plain text file ) and not made for structured document like XML. there is a XML demo of lucene sandbox but it's not really very efficient because it doesn't take advantage of the document strucutre in the indexing and the ranking model, so it lose semantic information and relevance. i don't know Ixiasoft, check the information to see how it index and rank XML document. nicolas On Wed, 8 Dec 2004 14:20:45 -0500, Praveen Peddi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does anyone know about Ixiasoft server.
