Abstract

WHEN I WAS ASKED to give a tutorial paper on information storage and retrieval, my first thought was to give a state-of-the-art survey of the field. But then it was evident that much of the paper would be a “state-of-the 'state-of-the-art'” survey since there have been several recent review papers1, 2, 3. Classification is a much used, and sometimes abused, concept not only in information storage and retrieval but in many other endeavors. Since this is the case, it seems appropriate to attempt a definitive review paper covering the concept which pervades almost all aspects of the field of information storage and retrieval.
