Abstract

The explosion of information available in digital form has made search a hot research topic for the Information Management Community. While most of the research on search is focused on the WWW, individual computer users have developed their own vast collections of data on their desktops, and these collections are in critical need for good search and query tools. The problem is exacerbated by the proliferation of varied electronic devices (laptops, PDAs, cellphones) that are at our disposal, which often hold subsets or variations of our data. In fact, several recent venues have noted Personal Information Management (PIM) as an area of growing interest to the data management community [1, 8, 6]
