Abstract

Desktop search, as commonly implemented, is not capable of searching many of the web sites and other sources people use day-to-day. A metasearch model, incorporating desktop search tools and others into a single box, offers a potential solution. We describe this model and introduce PERS, a library for building desktop metasearch software
