Information Retrieval and Web Search

For instructions on setting up the course Java code under the department Unix envirnonment, see this short guide.
Othwerwise, a jar file for the course Java code is available here , for installing under some other environment.
You may use Java on any platform you desire. However, the TA and I will only provide help with system problems if you use it on the departmental Unix workstations (UltraSparcs and Linux machines). If you do not know Unix, you can take one of the short courses on Unix basics offered by the department computing staff and/or see the department computing facilities FAQ file and general information.
The code we will use in the class is available on the departmental file system in /u/mooney/ir-code/ir/ (this link only works if you are using a machine on the department network). If you do not use departmental Unix machines, it is your own responsibility to transfer this code and make whatever changes are needed to get it to run on your system.
The HTML Javadoc documentation for this code is grouped by package and available off the course homepage.
The document data we will use in the class is available on the departmental file system in /u/mooney/ir-code/corpora/ (this link only works if you are using a machine on the department network). If you do not use departmental Unix machines, it is your own responsibility to transfer this data and make whatever changes are needed to get it to run on your system.
