A blueprint for automatic indexing

This note summarizes some of the currently available insights in automatic indexing. The emphasis is on aspects that are expected to be useful in practical automatic indexing applications. The discussion is necessarily cursory, but the references will lead interested readers to a deeper treatment of the indexing problem.
