This invention provides the data network user with an interactive search engine environment that helps him focus on the object of his search. Through a powerful graphical user interface (GUI), the user is provided with terms closely related to what he is looking for, even when he has no prior knowledge of the subject or its terminology. The user is also provided with suggested terms that should be excluded from the search because of the high probability of interfering with the search. The contribution of each term to the search progress is explained to the user. The invention then enables the user to build complex queries combining the related terms in a visual and simple way that facilitates the search process and saves time. This invention allows the user to create a detailed, precise, and longer search query then is customarily executed today.

Selon l'invention, l'utilisateur de réseau de données dispose d'un environnement moteur de recherche interactif qui l'aide à se concentrer sur l'objet de sa recherche. Grâce à une interface graphique puissante (GUI), l'utilisateur reçoit des termes se rapportant étroitement à ce qu'il recherche, même s'il n'a aucune connaissance préalable sur le sujet ou sur sa terminologie. Il reçoit également des termes suggérés qui devraient être exclus de la recherche du fait de la forte probabilité d'interférer avec la recherche. La contribution de chaque terme à l'évolution de la recherche est expliquée à l'utilisateur. Ce dernier peut alors élaborer des interrogations complexes combinant les termes connexes d'une manière visuelle et simple qui facilite le processus de recherche et fait gagner du temps. L'utilisateur peut également créer une interrogation de recherche plus longue, précise et détaillée par rapport à ce qui se fait habituellement aujourd'hui.
