Abstract

To the average person, a computer user is synonymous to a programmer. In fact, to the average programmer, a user is synonymous to a programmer. Information retrieval is an area in which the computer user is not--or, at least, should not be--required to be a programmer. This paper describes a real time information retrieval system which is at once highly accessible, relatively inexpensive, and simple enough to be used by nonprogrammers.
