Today the market offers a significant list of various search utilities, programs and systems of various levels. There are two types of software in this class*. (Gradsky P. Search engines. // St. Petersburg Gazette //, June 26, 2002; Deriev I. Features of national search. // Computer Review // No. 15,17 - April 23, 2002. Uvarov S. Let those who seek find. http://nrd.pnpi.spb.ru/UseSoft/Journals/IntemetZone/izone229/pub/izone8.htm www.cronos.ru )
Software products using direct search technology, they simply go through the files and search through each of them. The disadvantage of this technology is significant time costs. Similar utilities are traditionally present in all operating systems, file managers and tool packages.
1. AV search engine Search. If you have no money at all, then it can help you free program Anatoly Voznyuk - AVSearch (www.avtlab.ru). However this software can only work with text files and files RTF format, however, in all encodings from CP866 to Unicode, which, in particular, provides “support” and DOC format, because Microsoft documents Word is examined as normal text. The program searches all popular archives without using external modules. Its interface is quite simple and convenient. IN general program not bad, but its significant drawback is slowness.
2. Search engine SSScanner with enough high speed work with Word documents, WordPerfect, PDF, HLP, as well as several dozen languages and encodings.
There is the possibility of fuzzy search (by context) with relevance assessment and formal. The results are displayed in a separate window with excerpts from the original documents. SSScanner costs about $30, the shareware version has a number of limitations.
Currently, direct search programs are fading into the background and are being actively replaced software products using search technology with indexing. This type of software scans and analyzes specified text files, creating its own database (“index”), which is then searched. Indexing is a fairly lengthy process, but searching takes just a few seconds. Until recently, the main disadvantages of this software were the duration of the initial index creation operation and the additional consumption of disk space. However, for powerful modern computers it's not significant. There is still some inconvenience associated with the need to regularly update indexes, but this is not a problem.
Let's begin our consideration of this segment of the full-text search engine market with Western samples.
1. Search engine Advanced Document Server http://ads.newmail.ru/1 takes up little disk space, is distributed free of charge, has a lot of features: document support Microsoft Office, PDF, some databases; search in archive files; built-in Web server for remote access. True, there is one significant “but”: to work with almost every format you need “native” software. For DOC - Microsoft Word, for XLS - Excel, for PDF - full Adobe Acrobat, and Internet Explorer, archivers, etc.
And if many who work with Word documents use the application itself (although Microsoft also has a special viewer), then this principle is no longer suitable for PDF. In addition, the use of OLE automation tools in this case has an extremely negative impact on performance.
2. Software Greenstone is intended to create "digital libraries" that involve more than just pre-indexing searches by DOC documents, PDF, etc. This software product creates a catalog of documents, converts them into HTML format, and provides them with a library remote access via browser. Distributed free of charge, with source code. True, it works quite slowly.
3. Search engine dtSearch Desktop(automatically recognizes various encodings, including Cyrillic (with the exception of KOI-8), as well as a couple of dozen file formats, among which it is worth highlighting DOC, XLS, RTF, PDF, DBX (Outlook Express), XML, plus popular databases (via ODBC) In databases and hypertext documents, it is possible to search by the contents of specific fields and tags. Even protected PDFs are indexed, but the program cannot obtain their names and other attributes. The undoubted advantage of the program is searching in ZIP archives.
By type of search, the following are used: morphological, phonetic, search for synonyms, as well as search for words with spelling errors. In addition, dtSearch Desktop offers the user a dictionary (built during the index creation process) and automatically searches it when entering a query.
The only drawback is the program's English interface. dtSearch Desktop costs about $200.
Russian software. In terms of their search capabilities, domestic developments have a certain advantage over Western ones, since their developers are a priori better versed in all sorts of linguistic nuances of our state language than foreigners.
1. Search engine " Bloodhound" www.isleuthhound.com or http://www.isleuthhound.ru) (iSleuthHound Technologies).
"Snoop" is a full-text personal search system, the work with which is reminiscent of work in Internet search engines, such as AltaVista, Yahoo, Rambler. When you first launch it, it creates a database of existing documents and indexes it. Each database is a search zone - a space on the hard drive consisting of directories within which the program instantly finds documents and files. The test version of the program supports the ability to create only two search zones with a maximum of 500 files indexed in each. Before searching for documents, “Snoop” must specify a search zone or create a new one, then enter the keywords that the document should contain in the dialog box and click the button Search!
The free version of Snoop works only with text and DOC files, the professional version ($15) also works with RTF and HTML. In addition, the professional version has a set of additional plug-in filters - for text in all encodings, documents from other Microsoft Office applications and PDF.
PDF support has recently appeared in the program, and so far this module does not “understand” the Russian language, although company representatives promise to eliminate this shortcoming in the very near future. But the module works great with protected documents - it not only indexes their contents, but is also able to correctly determine the name and even extract the text.
2. Intelligent search system "Pathfinder" ((“MediaLingua”). Latest version programs for storing information uses Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Edition. It eliminates almost all comments and questions that arose before.
In its functionality, Pathfinder is similar to dtSearch. Users have several search options at their disposal: fuzzy, i.e. "on natural language", the system itself will discard the "noise" words, and the rest will be reduced to a morphological basis; strict, which searches for exactly the words specified in the query; formal - with logical and other operators and the possibility of combining the two previous ones.
Text files in a variety of encodings, documents from major Microsoft Office applications, PDF files, including those packaged in zip archives, as well as Microsoft Outlook folders (both messages themselves and attachments) are supported. It should be noted that the filters used are quite “honest”; they work with DOC files exactly as with Word documents, do not index PDF files that are copy-protected, etc. - naturally, this can be interpreted in two ways. Nevertheless, the PDF filter from Pathfinder seemed to be one of the best when working with the Russian language.
The program interface is quite convenient, with the exception of a few nuances. For example, the window for viewing found documents must be called up specifically, but it always remains the “top” one and in some cases interferes with working with the program. But it extracts text very correctly from documents of all supported formats and highlights the query words.
You just have to keep in mind that Pathfinder only works when the Microsoft application is running SQL Server, this application is installed simultaneously with the installation of Pathfinder itself.
The program is distributed in three versions - personal, professional and corporate.
Personal, at a price of $10, is deprived of virtually all the most interesting features- does not support morphology and formal queries, does not index PDF and Outlook folders.
Professional “Pathfinder” will cost $48 and can be a golden mean, since the corporate version is distributed with rather expensive license packages, although the only additional service is working with resources local network.
3. Documentary system searching for information "Cros» (www.cronos.ru (“Kronos-Inform”), as before, claims to be something more than the title of a simple search engine. The developers call “Cros” a “system for accumulating and processing information.” By accumulation it is meant that “Cros” does not simply creates an "index" of those specified to it text files, it copies them to its own archive - a bank of documents, while compressing them and indexing them. The search is carried out in its own archive. This solution has several effects at once: search speed and reliable protection document banks from unauthorized access.
“CROS”, when loaded into it, automatically recognizes all major formats and encodings of text files, supports archives electronic documents and at high speed searches for information in them using any combination of words and document properties. The program has developed navigation tools (a simple but powerful query language), sorting and viewing found document fragments, as well as automated report generation.
There is also a separately distributed Web interface (in the form of a Web site for IIS, Apache or other server with CGI support) that provides connection to "Cros" remote users and performing all basic operations with the data bank.
This software works reliably in Windows OS, does not require resources, is convenient and easy to use. There are both local and network version this software product.
When compared with existing analogues, CROS has virtually no restrictions on the volume of accumulated information, while significantly saving space on the hard drive.
There is a free demo version with truncated capabilities; it works with one data bank of up to 5000 documents. The price of the single-user version of CROS is $140; significant discounts are offered when installed on several computers in the same organization.
4. " Euphrates 99" ) (Cognitive Technologies). This product is also not a “pure” search engine, but an organization system electronic document management on a personal scale, which implies maximum automation of the creation and entry of typical office documents, as well as their organization, registration, storage, archiving and, accordingly, search.
“Euphrates @SOHO” is an almost complete working environment with its own desktop, recycle bin, tools for working with files, etc. In addition to all these “bells and whistles,” the program “understands” Microsoft Office documents, indexes them and performs contextual search, and even automatically monitors the updating of specified documents and folders. Its main drawback is the lack of support for other formats, in particular PDF, but there are also some pleasant ones additional features like built-in OCR for entering documents from a scanner. The cost of the program is $20.
"Euphrates Office" supports document formats MS Office 95/97/2000 (DOC, XLS, PPT), text (RTF, HTML, TXT (ASCII, ANSI, KOI-8), graphic documents - black and white and color - TIF, PCX, JPG, BMP, GIF and others. The “draft” viewing mode works (taking into account the original design and formatting of the document. There is an export function to external applications that support the required format).
"Euphrates Office" carries out full-text and detailed search of documents upon request of any complexity using logical operations“AND”, “OR”, “NOT”, contextual search (query for selected words of a document in the mode of viewing its text). The search speed is quite high and does not depend on the number of registered documents and the complexity of the request.
There is an additionally installed Euphrates Document Server module, which ensures simultaneous work of several users with a single database.
Brief summary. At the end of our review, I would like to note that you have a choice of software - these are the very effective dtSearch Desktop, Bloodhound, Pathfinder, Cros and Euphrates, for the possession of which you will have to part with a certain amount of green universal values.
Well, if your tight-fisted management doesn’t give you money for software, but demands results, then don’t forget about AVSearch. True, time and labor costs in this case increase significantly.
System name: “Pathfinder 3.0"
Developer: CJSC “Media Lingua”
Company CJSC "MediaLingua"- Russian software developer in the field of linguistic, search and multimedia technologies. Founded in August 1995
Purpose of the system:
Information retrieval system for full-text search on a personal computer or in a local enterprise network. Query in natural language or using logical operators. with search by keywords and standard additional criteria.
Distinctive features of the program:
The program uses an external DBMS - Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 - as the base DBMS. or Microsoft SQL Server 2000. This DBMS must be installed on the user's computer, or installed simultaneously with the installation of the entire search system. Therefore, the main technical characteristics of the system are limited by the capabilities of the universal Microsoft DBMS.
The software system is supplied in three versions: “corporate”, “professional” and “personal”. The options differ in the set of software environment for the base DBMS, which was developed by Media Lingua CJSC.
The minimal “personal option” allows you to index files on your PC hard drive, CDs and other removable media. The indexer is launched at the user's command or runs in background using an autoindexer.
Indexed source file formats: doc, html, rtf, txt, xls, ppt. The professional and enterprise versions also index PDF files, archived files, and email messages. Text content and some document attributes are indexed.
Linguistic support: the personal version uses a program for discarding endings, and older versions use a morphological dictionary of the Russian language.
The search query can be specified in the form of a phrase in natural language; it is allowed to formulate a query with the simultaneous use of Russian and English words. It is also possible to search by keyword, without taking into account word forms.
It is possible to search using a formal query language using the logical operators "AND", "OR", "NOT". Boolean search is available only in the professional and enterprise versions. The search is carried out using keywords and some document attributes.
The corporate version of the system can operate on a local network, providing multi-user access to data. Search in a network environment or client-server architecture providing multi-user access.
The results of testing this system are given according to Chip magazine: A comparative test of eight personal search engines. Magazine "CHIP" (Ukraine) No. 3, 2003)
Address: http://www.it2b.ru/print2.view4.page1.html
Testing was carried out on a database of 200 MB of text, which corresponds to the volume of an office collection of documents for a small company. The maximum database size is not specified anywhere.:
Indexing speed: 200MB of text was indexed in 240 seconds, which is 50MB/min. and is a very good indicator. It’s difficult to say at what speed the system will be able to index 10GB of text, and whether it can do so at all, since no data on this matter could be found.
Search speed: in a 200MB database, the search lasted about 4 seconds, which coincides with the data given on the developer’s website - search time is 1-5 seconds, although it is not specified in what volume and for what request. In any case, this is a very low speed, tens of times inferior to such systems as Yandex. Obviously, this is a price to pay for using a universal DBMS, which does not have the best performance in full-text information retrieval.
As system requirements The developer's website states:
Microsoft SQL Server v.7.0 or 2000 Standard or Enterprise Edition c installed on the user’s computer installed system Full-Text Search.
Technical support includes consultations on the program by phone, e-mail or ICQ.
Pathfinder 3.0 - Personal (box) – price 10 USD Symbolic price for a symbolic program. Our users are accustomed to working with unlicensed copies of the most best programs, so it’s unlikely that anyone will work with such a weak version, and even pay money for it.
Pathfinder 3.0 - Professional (box) - 40 USD. This version includes almost all functions of the system, except for working in a local network. The price is quite consistent with the set of functions offered and the characteristics of the system.
Pathfinder 3.0 - Corporate (box) with a license for 6 workstations – 750 USD
Pathfinder 3.0 - Corporate PLUS with a license for an unlimited number of workstations. -1250 USD The real buyers of software developments on the Russian market are large and small companies that operate programs for searching documents in multi-user mode on a local network. The main version of the Pathfinder search engine is designed for these buyers.
conclusions
The system has a basic gentleman's set of functions of an information retrieval system designed for searching an office collection of documents, including search by attributes, morphological dictionary, query with logical operators, etc. The use of a standard DBMS (MSSQLServer) degrades the speed characteristics of the system. For quick search The system is not designed to contain information in arbitrary text arrays. It is quite suitable for searching documents on a PC or on the network of a small company. The price is normal. An important advantage is that the system exists and is sold as a finished commercial product: in a box and at a certain price.

Pathfinder helps visitors to your Web server find the information they need quickly and easily.The significant increase in the volume of information on the Internet has led to the fact that finding the right document, even on one single Web server, has become a real problem. Experience shows that as the volume of a Web site grows, even the most advanced and well-thought-out system of links between documents often does not allow the user to find the required information in a reasonable time. To solve this problem, the Server Pathfinder package was developed.
The Server Pathfinder system belongs to the class of so-called search engines, that is, information search programs on a separate Web site or corporate intranet server. When developing Pathfinder, the following two features of the operation of programs on the Internet were taken into account. Firstly, it was taken into account that the majority of Internet users are not specialists in the field computer technology. This means that the procedure for searching for information should be as simple as possible, and the search results should be clear and informative. As a result, the following features were included in the Pathfinder system, significantly simplifying the work of non-professional users:
- search for documents using queries in natural Russian and English,
- ranking documents according to the degree of proximity to the request,
- highlighting of detected phrases and expressions in found documents,
- automatic preparation of document abstracts.
Search documents using natural language queries implemented based on the Pathfinder™ search technology developed by MediaLingua. This technology has proven itself well in the personal search system Pathfinder v1.0. Thus, visitors to your Web site no longer need to study the formal language of queries to a search engine and compose complex structures from words, expressions and logical operators: it is enough to write a question in free form, as if it were being sent to a person. Such a query will find not only documents containing exactly the same phrase, but also all documents containing expressions that are similar in meaning. Requests are processed in Russian and English.
Ranking of documents by degree of proximity to the request. The Server Pathfinder report contains a list of found documents, ordered as follows: the documents that most closely match the query appear first in the report. This way, if the relevant documents are found, they will almost certainly end up at the top of the report. This saves the system user from tedious viewing of a large number of documents that are not interesting to him.
Highlighting phrases and expressions in documents. In order to simplify the analysis of documents discovered by Pathfinder, they highlight words and phrases that were used to decide whether the document corresponded to the request. This feature of the system significantly simplifies working with found documents and allows, if necessary, to view only the fragments of large documents of interest. It should be noted that ranking and highlighting in found documents are also implemented based on Pathfinder™ technology.
Automatic preparation of document abstracts. For each document processed by the search system, a short abstract is automatically compiled that reflects the content of the document. These abstracts are presented to the user in a report on the documents found and allow you to evaluate the content of the document without even referring to it. To compile abstracts, we use automatic text abstracting technology developed by specialists from the MediaLingua company.
The second point that was taken into account when developing this software product was that the system is designed to work on the Internet. This means that the system must be compatible with existing Internet technologies and standards, and work stably under high load conditions typical of Web servers. Hence a number of technological features:
- indexing of web pages,
- client-server execution of a search engine,
- high speed of work,
- support for basic Internet technologies,
- work with five Cyrillic encodings.
Client-server execution of the system. The search system is based on client-server technology. This means that the functions of indexing, searching and displaying information are distributed among various components of the system. This approach allows, if necessary, to effectively distribute the load between different computers and thereby increase the performance of the system as a whole.
High speed. For all server systems the most important criterion for their effectiveness is their speed. For Server Pathfinder, in particular, important parameters are the speed of indexing and retrieving information. As testing and operating experience have shown, Pathfinder allows you to index information at a speed of up to 80–100 MB per hour and process at least 10–15 thousand requests per day.
Support for major Internet technologies. The standard Internet TCP/IP protocol is used for exchange between the components of Server Pathfinder, and the CGI/1.1 protocol is used for interaction between search clients and the Web server. This allows Pathfinder to work with most Web servers running on the Windows/Intel platform.
Working with five Cyrillic encodings. Historically, the Russian part of the Internet uses several Cyrillic encodings at the same time. Server Pathfinder automatically recognizes five major character sets: Windows-1251, DOS Cyrillic 866, KOI8-R (Unix), Mac Cyrillic, and ISO 8859-5 (Sun). Reports on found documents can be generated in any of the listed encodings.
Thus, Server Pathfinder is a powerful search engine that makes it easier to work with information on your World Wide Web site.
Server Pathfinder is used to search for information on the MediaLingua server.

And for the lovers mobile devices and computer technology, it will certainly be interesting to look at
The three-year development program has reached the finish line information technologies at the capital's police headquarters. Vasily KLOCHKOV, assistant to the head of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for Moscow (for information technology), spoke to Shield and Sword about the creation of a modern information technology infrastructure, the introduction of electronic services and their role in the police service.
Pilot region
Vasily Vasilyevich, today it is difficult to imagine the Moscow police without information technology. But it was not always so. What is associated with an innovative breakthrough?
Our lives are changing rapidly. There is a rule - “two for two”, that is, technology on the planet doubles in two years. And we can't lag behind. Back in 2013, the leadership of the central administration set the task for us to be no worse, but better, than in other capitals of the world in terms of information technology. For this we have developed special program for 2014-2016, its official name is “List of measures for the purchase, creation, implementation and operation of information technology, communication and information protection equipment in the interests of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in Moscow.” In February 2014, the document was approved by Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin and the Minister of Internal Affairs Russian Federation General of Police of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kolokoltsev. The program aimed to combine the resources of the city and the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the development of information technology in the Moscow police. Everything had to be concentrated, systematized and directed into a common direction.
By “common channel” do you mean the unified system of information and analytical support for the activities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia (ISOD) being built in the constituent entities of the federation?
Moscow plays a key role in the development of ISOD of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs. A number of electronic services were chosen specifically for the capital as a pilot region. Here they were first installed, tested, tested, and then effectively used in other subjects. However, the three-year plan includes not only the introduction of ISOD services, it is also designed to solve specific problems facing the metropolitan police. For example, we have a need to modernize the Criminal Statistics service. It's not within the limits unified system, but this is a very necessary resource that provides operational data on the crime situation in Moscow. It is also important that all services are ours, departmental, and not city or municipal. We provide our official activities with our own information technology.
What got into the network?
- Can you highlight the stages of program implementation? Where did you start?
From the events included in the first section. It provided for legal support for the creation, implementation and operation of information technology. To ensure that everything was within the framework of the law, we entered into agreements on information interaction with the Moscow government, various departments and services, including the tax office and bailiffs. Today we are completely within the legal framework, new regulations have been adopted or previous ones have been adjusted, and all regulations have been approved. First of all, we also conducted an audit of computing power, collected and summarized data on the current equipment of departments with information technology and the degree of their wear and tear. Based on the results of the audit, the fleet of equipment - server and user - was updated and expanded.
Are these activities already included in the second section of the program, related to the development of information technology infrastructure?
.jpg)
Yes, at the next stage, in addition to updating the computer park, we began developing a data transmission network. Outdated communication equipment was replaced in the shortest possible time. In just a year, an integrated multiservice telecommunications network (IMTS) was created. It consists of communication channels, access nodes and means of protecting them. Perhaps, such construction at such a pace has not been carried out anywhere else in the country. We rented out two or three knots a day. All units of the Moscow garrison were connected by reliable, protected cable channels. A powerful communication channel was reached to each district police department, network hardware, routers and switches. By 2015, this work was completed, 427 IMTS units were delivered, all of them are still in operation today. The new integrated network smoothly flowed into the ISOD of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia and became its integral part. Now let's go further, we are not limited to stationary objects. In 2016, we plan to equip all patrol cars with information technology. On this moment PPSP crews were issued 800 tablets. By the end of the year we will issue about two thousand more computer devices. Each motor patrol will have access to ISOD services to check on-site databases of detained offenders.
Get your login and password
- The third section of the program is the largest in the list of events. What are they targeting?
For the creation and implementation of information technology. We do special software. Our task is to provide every police officer, be it a district police officer, a duty officer or a traffic police inspector, with the full functionality of the necessary services. So that, along with his official ID, he is given an envelope with a login and password. Having this data, any employee will be able to go to a special website directly from his workplace and gain access to the ISOD services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, which are provided according to his rank and position.
Currently, more than 35 services have been implemented, covering all districts and districts of Moscow. When I came to the headquarters in the fall of 2013, we only had one workstation equipped with access to such services. Now thousands of users are connected. Of course, the introduction of services involves training police officers to work with computers. Therefore, organizing studies is the most important task for us.
- What services are in your arsenal? Is it difficult for police officers to master them?
We were one of the first to launch electronic document management. This service allows you to get away from paperwork and significantly speed up the circulation of various documents - internal and external, which arrive at the Main Directorate. The process has begun, we expect to completely transfer the metropolitan police to EDS by the end of 2016. Moscow is the leader in document registration in in electronic format all around Russia. This is largely the merit of the Office of Records Management and Regime. There is a small team here; one might think that people spend 24 hours, day and night, registering documents. But that's not true electronic service made the work easier and helped save time. Although at first some employees took it hard. They said that they didn’t need it, everything was too complicated. Indeed, labor productivity decreased during the implementation of the service. Clerks dealt with the information system and studied. Today everything is fine-tuned in management. Moreover, UDiR employees themselves act as mentors and help colleagues from other departments switch to electronic document management.
By the way, our electronic document management system is integrated with the portals of the capital’s police headquarters and the Moscow government. Any citizen can go to the website, to the electronic reception, and leave their appeal to law enforcement agencies. This request is immediately and automatically sent to a specific department.
Ahead is a new three-year plan
- What other interesting things have been developed and implemented?
.jpg)
Big systematic work, with access to the federal level, was done to provide public services. We are already seeing its effectiveness. The number of public services provided by the Moscow police electronically is growing every year. Based on this service, departments of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and other services deployed an electronic queue, which significantly reduced the time it took to receive the population.
A breakthrough has been made in terms of fingerprint information. We have new service centralized fingerprint information system (TSIADIS-MVD). It allows you to check any person with one click of your finger. The operational search is carried out across a colossal array, where 72 million dactocarts are concentrated.
Successfully implemented in all territorial divisions of Pathfinder-M. This service is especially in demand among operational workers. The previous information retrieval system “Pathfinder” has changed dramatically. When we started working on the service, I was struck by this fact. District police departments did not have access to the Federal Migration Service databases. The police detained illegal migrants, but they could not “get through” their databases and confirm the illegality of their stay in the country. Now there is no problem. The new “Sledopyt-M” is integrated with the information systems of the GIAC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in terms of searching for persons. Others are being introduced interesting services. It is difficult to list all the projects.
- The information technology program ends in December. What's next?
New three year old. The action plan for 2017-2019 is currently being discussed at the Main Directorate. The trends in the development of information technology are clear, we need to focus on them. Everything we wanted was built, key services were launched. The Metropolitan Police's information support system now has a new look. But we are not cemented, but rather developing. IN Information Systems Changes are made all the time, they are improved. We will continue to support Moscow’s status as a region with enormous innovative potential.
