The rapid increase in content available in digital forms gives rise to large digital libraries, targeted to support millions of users and terabytes of data. Efficiently retrieving information then is a challenging task due to the size of the collection and its index. In this paper, our high performance "hybrid" partition inverted index is validated through experiments with a 100 Gbyte collection from TREC-9 and -10. The hybrid scheme combines the term and the document approaches to partitioning inverted indices across nodes of a parallel system. Experiments on a parallel system show that this organization outperforms the document and the term partitioning schemes. Our hybrid approach should support highly efficient searching for information in a large-scale digital library, implemented atop a network of computers.
