HOW GOOGLE SEARCH WORKS??!

By


Google's search engine is a powerful tool,making it practically possible to find the information you need when you browse the Web.
Google uses automated programs called spiders or crawlers, which finds and retrieves pages on the web and hands them off to the Google indexer. Google has a large index of keywords This index is sorted alphabetically by search term, with each index entry storing a list of documents in which the term appears and the location within the text where it occurs. This data structure allows rapid access to documents that contain user query terms.To improve search performance, Google ignores (doesn’t index) common words called stop words (such as the, is, on, or, of, how, why, as well as certain single digits and single letters)
.How Google ranks search results , determines the order Google displays results on its search engine results page (SERP). Google uses a trademarked algorithm called PageRank, which assigns each Web page a relevancy score.
A Web page's PageRank depends on a few factors:

• The frequency and location of keywords within the Web page: If the keyword only appears once within the body of a page, it will receive a low score for that keyword.
• How long the Web page has existed: People create new Web pages every day, and not all of them stick around for long. Google places more value on pages with an established history.
• The number of other Web pages that link to the page in question: Google looks at how many Web pages link to a particular site to determine its relevance.

Google also applies machine-learning techniques to improve its performance automatically by learning relationships and associations within the stored data. For example, the spelling-correcting system uses such techniques to figure out likely alternative spellings. Indexing the full text of the web allows Google to go beyond simply matching single search terms. Google gives more priority to pages that have search terms near each other and in the same order as the query. Google can also match multi-word phrases and sentences. Users can restrict searches on the basis of where query words appear, e.g., in the title, in the URL, in the body, and in links to the page, options offered by Google’s Advanced Search Form and Using Search Operators (Advanced Operators).

Everyday Cloud !!

By
Cloud Computing - delivering hosted services over the Internet. Cloud computing is getting IT services, such as email, customer relationship management or web conferencing, over the internet.Instead of buying hardware and software up front, you pay a monthly charge based on the number of users.In simple words,when you  type a query into Google, the computer does nothing with regards to answer, it's just a messenger. The words you type are sent over the Net to one of Google's numerous clustered PCs, which find  your results and send them promptly back to you. The real work in finding your answers might be done by a computer sitting in California, Dublin, Tokyo, or Beijing!!Preparing documents over the Net is a newer example of cloud computing.
