Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "A common class of existing information retrieval system provides access to abstracts. For example Stanford University, through its FOLIO system, provides access to the INSPEC database of abstracts of the literature on physics, computer science, electrical engineering, etc. In this paper this database is studied by using a trace- driven simulation. We focus on physical index design, inverted index caching, and database scaling in a distributed shared-nothing system. All three issues are shown to have a strong effect on response time and throughput. Database scaling is explored in two ways. One way assumes an 'optimal' configuration for a single host and then linearly scales the database by duplicating the host architecture as needed
The second way determines the optimal number of hosts given a fixed database size.
