-
- I just purchased "Information Retrieval: Data Structures and
- Algorithms" edited by William Frakes and Ricardo Baeza-Yates
- (Prentice Hall, 1992). The Preface alludes to an
- accompanying code disk. My copy of this book did not come
- with a disk.
-
- This book contains a lot of neat-o C code for implementing
- the latest information retrieval algorithms for text or
- document databases. I am hoping someone on the net knows the
- author/editors and can give me their E-mail address, or
- point me to an FTP site where the example code from the book
- may be found.
-
- Best guess for the author's whereabouts are:
-
- William B. Frakes
- Software Engineering Guild
- Sterling, VA
-
- Ricardo A. Baeza-Yates
- Depto. de Ciencias de la Compuntacion
- Universidad de Chile
- Santiago, Chile
-
- I'll write to the publisher if all else fails.

- Thanks, David Harper dharper@hounix.org
