Abstract

In this paper the challenges faced during building a prototype of a search engine have been discussed. Each component of a search engine has been described in details. Architectures for each module have been proposed that is most appropriate according to our research on search engine technology and their implementation details have also been provided. . Several algorithms had been designed and implemented for each of the component but pre-built technologies were also used like Pagerank. As Google’s Pagerank [1] algorithm is also embedded in our search engine (although in a small scale), thus its explanation is also provided along with the implementation details.
