A specialized architecture for textual information retrieval

Retrieval of information from the complete text of large document collections cannot be performed efficiently or rapidly by current general purpose digital computers or by most special purpose rotating memory associative processors frequently proposed for efficient processing of relational databases. Characteristics which distinguish text retrieval from retrieval of formatted files are discussed, and a computer configuration employing for special purpose processors is described.
