the authors presented a search engine to perform free text searches on
web archives with the following features:
keywords and boolean expressions: search expressions use UNIX
style syntax :-( and can be combined using AND and OR operators.
thesaurus: the built-in thesaurus allows search operations using
synonyms to extend the capabilities of queries.
document hierarchies: queries can be refined by using URLs.
fault tolerant searches: by implementing the levenshtein
algorithm (distance between two words, as the weighted sum over the number of
character deletions, insertions and changes needed to transform one word into
another) the search engine is capable to overcome misspelt words and to find
word variants.
