RU2410748C2 - Method of searching for information on internet - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to methods of searching for information on the Internet using microprocessor technology based search engines. The disclosed invention provides search results which only contain an object having a verified electronic digital signature, where said object must contain the search query. In another embodiment, search results are sorted into documents which have or do not have an electronic digital signature.

EFFECT: high reliability of search results.

Description

The invention relates to methods for searching information on the Internet using search engines based on microprocessor technology. Typically, search engines consist of three stages of information processing:

1. Search and download information on the Internet.

2. Analysis, indexing of downloaded information, updating the database (storage of downloaded and processed pages).

3. The issuance to users of search results containing a search query.

The disadvantage of this search method is the low quality of the search. This method allows you to manipulate the results of delivery using various technologies, including spamming keywords, Cloaking (hiding), Doorway (doorways), Gateways (gateways), it is also possible unauthorized use of content from other sites. Such methods are usually prohibited by search engines. In case of violation, measures are taken up to the "ban" of the domain. However, this does not solve the problem.

In the present invention, to improve the quality of the search, it is proposed to include in the search results only results containing an object signed by an electronic digital signature that has passed authentication, and this object should contain a search query. Another option is to increase the ranking of such results compared to results that do not have an electronic digital signature. If the signed content or the domain (page) where the signed content was posted violates laws, rules of search engines, etc., then the subscribed can be “banned” by the search engine with the exclusion of all signed content from the search.

As a result, control over compliance with laws and search engine rules is improved. It complicates the use of prohibited methods of influencing the search results. The reliability and reliability of the information sources listed in the search results are improved. As a result, the quality of the search improves.

Example. Is available

- person Y ₁ who posted on the Internet an article X ₁ ,

- the person Y ₂ who posted on the Internet an article X ₂ signed by an electronic digital signature.

The search engine is given a search query from the keywords Z contained in X ₁ and X ₂ . Next, using microprocessor technology in the first embodiment, a list is formed as a result of the search, including links to articles X ₁ and X ₂ as meeting the search query. The digital signature of Article X _{2 is} verified for authenticity. The ranking of search results is carried out taking into account the increasing criterion - the presence of an electronic digital signature. Thus, article X _{2 is} ranked higher than article X ₁ , which improves the quality of the search. According to the second option, article X _{1 is} generally not displayed in the search results as not having an electronic digital signature. Thus, the quality of the search is improved, since Article X ₂ is a more reliable and reliable source of information due to electronic digital signature.

Claims (2)

1. A method of searching for information on the Internet using search engines based on microprocessor technology, characterized in that the search results include only results containing an object signed by an electronic digital signature that has passed authentication, and this object must contain a search query. 2. A method of searching for information on the Internet using search engines based on microprocessor technology, characterized in that when the search results are issued, the results are ranked containing an object signed by an electronic digital signature that has passed authentication, and this object should contain a search query by Compared to non-digitally signed results.
