a machine for information retrieval
The described machine was conceived especially for nonnumeric computation. The possible applications are: - content and structures recognition in texts - language translation - modification of files format - etc... The first application of the machine will be A library file query system. The library file is available on a 300 Mbyte disk. The proposed query language allows to ask questions which may be rather imprecise (with spelling mistakes or with missing words in sentences) and complicated with predicates containing logical expressions about the existence of words or words sequences.
