A common problem of large scale search engines and web spiders is how to handle a huge number of encountered URLs. Traditional search engines and web spiders use hard disk to store URLs without any compression. This results in slow performance and more space requirement. This paper describes a simple URL compression algorithm allowing efficient compression and decompression. The compression alg...

This study investigated a relatively unexamined query type, queries composed of URLs. The extent, variation, and user click-through behavior was examined to determine the intent behind URL queries. The study made use of a search log from which URL queries were identified and selected for both qualitative and quantitative analyses. It was found that URL queries accounted for ∼17% of the sample. ...

In this paper we present an experiment to determine the types of constituents that influence polysyllabic shortening. Materials were designed to encourage the use of rhythmic, prominencebased, cross-word (Abercrombian) feet. Our preliminary results suggest that when polysyllabic shortening occurs, it operates preferentially within word-based constituents of the prosodic hierarchy (Selkirk [9], ...
