InfoHarness: A System for Search and Retrieval of Heterogeneous Information
Summary: InfoHarness enables rapid access to heterogeneous data (incl. Web) without restructuring, via metadata-encoded objects and a stable abstract/terminal class hierarchy for storage, indexing, and retrieval. It combines attribute-based and reference indices to boost retrieval quality, supports cross-collection result fusion, automates metadata extractor design for structured/unstructured data, and includes a deployed prototype with an HTTP gateway plan.
