example 1

[0207] Example 1: Searching for content in a web page

[0208] When searching for information in a web page, it is useful to provide the user with a larger overview created from portions of text extracted from multiple web pages from the source site, while still using a hypertext navigation structure similar to the original site. Link these text sections. For quick viewing using clickable hyperlinks without additional query and response operations through the mobile web, these sections can be rendered as screen views within a larger page.

[0209] Example 2: Searching for content in a video clip

[0210] When searching for a video segment, this larger overview may simply be the portion of the video segment that is longer than the video segment displayed in the segment's first level content overview. If the user is not sure based on the first-level content summary that the video segment is exactly what he or she is searching for, this larger summary can be downloaded before deciding to spend a significant amount of time downloading the full video segment.

[0211] Site Contents Overview Package Size

[0212] Depending on the mobile network, there is an optimal size for the CSP that trades off the benefit of providing more overviews against the additional overhead and time it takes to send the CSP compared to smaller web pages, the following are examples (can be empirically determined improved to suit user needs). For different networks or different conditions, different user preferences, and different applicatio...

Abstract

A query server of a mobile search engine system for searching content items accessible online, is arranged to send at least a first screenview of search results (63) to a browser of a mobile device (10), and send instructions (69, 74) in a scripting language to the browser for a background process to fetch further search results to the mobile device for presentation later. The further search results can then be viewed as desired without the need for a further round trip delay across the wireless network. The user can be presented with a simpler navigation model. The first screenview can be sent in the form of a page formatting template, and results data. The formatting information can be reused for other results, to reduce formatting overhead in the downloads. The instructions can also be used for showing information while waiting for downloads, or downloading information during entry of search queries.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a server of a search engine system, a method of providing a search service through a wireless network, a method of using the search service, and corresponding devices or software. Background technique [0002] The World Wide Web is a massive store of useful (and useless) information. A well-functioning search facility supports universal access to this information store. The problem of searching the World Wide Web is well-solved when accessing the web from a desktop personal computer (eg, Google, Yahoo, etc.). The number of mobile devices capable of accessing content on the World Wide Web is increasing. However, there are very few pages specifically designed for the small screen sizes of mobile devices. Furthermore, only a few very simple search services are available for mobile devices. These search services perform poorly for a variety of reasons. [0003] - There are not enough mobile-specific pages available to ...
