Baeza-Yates, Ricardo; Navarro, Gonzalo – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 2000
Discusses indexing in large text databases, approximate text searching, and space-time tradeoffs for indexed text searching. Studies the space overhead and retrieval times as functions of the text block size, concludes that an index can be sublinear in space overhead and query time, and applies the analysis to the Web.
