Tarantula

An elegant search engine

Our System

• We have built our custom web crawler which will crawl the WWW recursively in a DFS manner.
• The extracted data is stored in the database and then pre-processed and indexed.
• The stored pages are assigned scores using metrics like location score, frequency score, inbound link score, distance score, & PageRank score.

Features

• Web Search
• Image Search
• Torrent Search
• Quick Search (I'm feeling lucky)
• Voice Input
