description Search engines are competing to be seen as universal, consistent and language independent. In principle, users searching for information through the Internet should get consistent information regardless of the language of the words they are searching for and regardless of the language of the matching or the relevant documents. Nevertheless, the language should affect the sequence or the ranking of the retrieved results. In this project, several tools are built to evaluate words and statements in several languages. Results are evaluated and compared for possible correlation. Another tool is built to crawl websites from different languages and locations in order to measure several aspects of those websites. Results from both studies showed that while it seems that popular search engines are making very good progress toward building search engines that are language and location independent, however, there are some limitations and situations where search for results can be biased toward the popularity of the website language and/or location.

Nevertheless, the language should affect the sequence or the ranking of the retrieved results. In this project, several tools are built to evaluate words and statements in several languages.

Os motores de busca estão competindo para serem vistos como universais, coerentes e independentes do idioma. Em princípio, os usuários que buscam informação através da Internet devem obter informações consistentes independentemente da linguagem e das palavras que estão usando, e independentemente da língua correspondente aos documentos pertinentes. No entanto, a linguagem deve afetar a sequência ou a ordem de classificação dos resultados obtidos. Neste projeto, várias ferramentas são construídas para avaliar palavras e demonstrações em vários idiomas. Os resultados são avaliados e comparados para possível correlação. Outra ferramenta é construída para rastrear sites de diferentes idiomas e locais, a fim de avaliar vários aspectos desses sites. Os resultados de ambos os estudos mostraram que, embora pareça que os motores de busca populares fazem progressos muito bons para a construção de motores independentes de idioma e local, no entanto, existem algumas limitações e situações em que a busca por resultados pode ser tendenciosa em direção à popularidade da linguagem e/ou localização do site. 2011-06-12 2022-03-21T17:22:41Z 2022-03-21T17:22:41Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/473 10.36311/1981-1640.2010.v4n1.02.p2 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/70487 por eng https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/473/598 https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/473/599 https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/bjis/article/view/473/5140 application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 4 No. 1 (2010) Brazilian Journal of Information Science: Research Trends; Vol. 4 Núm. 1 (2010) Brazilian Journal of Information Science: research trends; v. 4 n. 1 (2010) 1981-1640
