A REVERSED COMPUTER SYSTEM BASED ON ACCESS BY CONTENT INSTEAD OF ACCESS BY ADDRESS AND ITS FULLY OPTIMIZED IMPLEMENTATION

摘要

Content-accessible method and system for operation of a computer. The three main parts of this invention include, first, a method for defining, classifying and indexing content; second, a method for designating all real numbers such that they can be arranged easily in a monotonic fashion; and third, a fast, linear method of sorting through the content according to the associated monotonic real numbers. The problem of ergonomics is solved by a simple dialogue box and a button asking for some "advanced" search. The possibility of searching by "themes" is added to this. A theme is defined by words, expressions or texts and is used to get pertinent information. The system uses semantics: the meaning of words. When searching for a theme, one does a Boolean OR on the words of the theme, or a selection of the most pertinent of them associated with the proximity constraint: at least N words must be in the same paragraph. The results are then sorted by pertinence to reduce the noise. FOCUS is not a full text engine as it detects groups of words, words roots, synonyms, "concepts" (Focusers) and stores all these in its repository. Every "knowledge" is extracted on data input and stored in the FOCUS repository. Analysis implies identification of the data format, decoding of it, detecting language on textual information, running the linguistic procedures and storing the result according to FOCUS input format.
