Lucene Cranfield Search Engine

Introduction

A Lucene demo for searching the Cranfield collection. It searches for each query in file cran.qry and displays the first two related documents in file cran.all.1400.

The results for the query with ID 27: papers on shock-sound wave interaction .
    SCORE: 7.306487, DOCUMENT ID: 64, TITLE: unsteady oblique interaction of a shock wave with plane disturbances .
    SCORE: 6.157679, DOCUMENT ID: 291, TITLE: sweepback effects in the turbulent boundary-layer shock-wave interaction .

The results for the query with ID 29: material properties of photoelastic materials .
    SCORE: 4.421124, DOCUMENT ID: 405, TITLE: tables of thermal properties of gases .
    SCORE: 4.305917, DOCUMENT ID: 553, TITLE: ablation of glassy materials around blunt bodies of revolution .

The workflow is as follows.
