Abstract

Systems and corresponding methodologies are disclosed that employ ‘context’ of a document upon searching for relevant or desired references/results. The innovation establishes ‘context’ of a document thereby increasing relevance upon returning results to search queries. Context-based searching establishes relationships between terms of a document in order to focus more upon an interpretation of a document rather than merely considering a topic of a document based upon word occurrences, as used by traditional searching mechanisms.
